Next up:
Tiger brand Lao Khao:


The low % varieties aren't worth getting since they don't taste right, or rather, even more disgusting than some of the stronger stuff.
This one kicks in at 40% alc and sets you back 67bt, the cheapest taxed brand. Hard to beat in value for money, which helps to overlook some of the less appealing qualities - in fact the alcohol content is the only imaginable reason anyone would drink it. It can also be used as a disinfectant.

The bouquet is a mixture of cheap after-shave and toilet cleaner, the taste somewhat more palatable, and it improves with each dbl shot. It has a sharp 'bite' and an after-taste which made me think the glass hadn't all the washing-up liquid rinsed out.

Overall a challenge, this one, I will try it mixed with fruit-juice and ice if I ever buy it again.

Hangover: possible, but absent due to restraint consumption.

Good reviews but could you take the pictures somewhere a little more aesthetically pleasing to the eye?

Nice thread, but I think I'll stick to beer. Lao khao is not something humans should ingest.

In keeping with the spirit of the thread let me present, Golden Knight, this premium blended spirit is imported from the Phillipines and at 175baht a bottle is very easy going on the wallet, although, remembering it is only 35 percent proof you will need a bottle or 2 to get a buzz on, but a very smooth palatable whisky, I highly recommend it.

Master Blend form Seagrames is one of Thailands greatest imports, at 195baht a bottle it is also real cheap, it isn't as smooth as Golden Knight but does come in an easy to refil bottle, it is a combination of some of the worlds finest whiskys and grain and other shite, I certainly would recommend this one to take home with you.
Although again at a low 35 percent proof you may need a couple of bottles, or, just do as i do and refil that bugger.

My lady is over from Taiwan at the moment and Taiwanese ( Hakka) recipies all seem to need a dash of rice wine in them.
She buys Lao Khao uses a splash of it and insists I finish it up.
40% proof and 50% - 50% with Sprite its ok !
When she goes back every time she takes a few bottles as her mum reckons it is smoother than the Taiwanese variety !!!
Oh Shit !!!

I can hear the shouts of lets get back onto Thai beer, so let me add my review of Chang Beer, now this stuff when chilled down is a damn good drop of stuff, the price is affordable for TEFLers to have a few in between classes at 35baht a big bottle, although they will still need those mints to hide the smell, it also makes a damn fine breakfast for Australians, all in all a value for money nice beer to drink.
