I seldom drank alcohol in my teenage years and, to be honest, beer taste like soapy water. As will happen, as we mature and fall into bad company tastes change.
Now, I'm not suggesting my fellow pilgrims on Camino are âbad companyâ but a few have suggested, encouraged and, dare I say âdaredâ me to try an unfamiliar adult beverage, or two, er, more than two.
In my case it is Orujo.
My understanding is, Orujo is the equivalent of homemade hooch and can vary by color and region. Many albergues and restaurants have this ambrosia and I try as many as possible to find the âperfectâ Orujo.
So, leaving some obvious non-teetotaleers aside...yes you @Robo, whom among this august group of pilgrims has come upon a beverage they heretofore either outright rejected, or hadnât considered prior to their Camino? And, under what circumstances.
Buen âorujo anvejecido, por favorâ Camino
