    Has anyone ever seen/drunk this? I had a couple of shots of it the other night, quite tasty and definitely the strangest thing I've drunk. It's got flakes of 22 carat gold leaf floating about in it.

    yeah,

    itsd also called goldschlage iirc, might be a brand or something,
    tastes a lot like sambuca, very licoricey
    gold leaf is just like paper so the myths, if youve heard them, about making little cuts in your stomach lining to get you drunker are bs

    nice in small doses, bad hangovers otherwise ;)

    Goldschlager is actually the exact same flavour as Aftershock. (red)

    yeah have a couple of bottles of it at home....
    IIRC correctly we mixed it with baileys once was quite nice. course it may not have been baileys though, cos that curdles with some things....
    Wish I could get Pisang Ambon here Picarooney, miss that from Holland....
    Actually I miss "'t Drankurgels...." too....

    EDIT:
    Goldschlager is Cinnamon flavour.

    yep goldschlanger, feels weird drinking flecks of gold. It's like when sambucas are lit and coffee beans are in it (tres posh), do u spit out the beans when u are downing it or swallow then aswell? Always wondered about that.

    Spitting is the height of poshness, all the most cultivated wine-drinkers do it, from the Baron in his château to the bum on the street.

    Ken, you'll have to pick up a few bottles of Pisang Greenwee(or ask someone to do it, with that collar ;) next time you're over.

    Bols do a similar gold drink which is cinammon flavoured, thinks its called goldrush. It is in O'Briens and is only €20 for a 500ml bottle which is 50%, I think it is priced wrongly since most bols 500ml liquers are this price yet are only 25-30%.

    Drink guinness with it and you can impress your workmates/flatmates by leaving unflushed jet black logs with sparkles of gold in them in the toilet.
