Owlcohol review #5: Dirty-Baijiu

Coffee + alcohol is generally a great combination. I do like my Coffee Martinis (which is not really a Martini) at the start of a night out. So I was pleasantly surprised that a coffee place close to campus created some new alcoholic drinks.

Moutai is the most well-known Baijiu brand in China. Generally peeps confuse baijiu with rice wine which it is not although there exist rice based baijius. Moutai is made from fermented sorghum; which is the go to for Chinese southeastern Baijiu. Baijiu is generally drunk straight using the tiny shot glass in the above image.

Flavourwise Baijiu is a bit like vodka but with a strong finish like a soy sauce wihout any salt. The base of a Coffee Martini is vodka so Baijiu would be a good match with coffee. They went for a Dirty, cold milk with an espresso poured over it, and then topped it with Baijiu. Would be interesting to drink it alongside a vodka version but I would pretty sure the Baijiu would be the winner as the base has more flavour.

Tasting Dirty-Baijiu was a cool experience ^^

I am not sure on this one.... and I will pass. Coffee + alcohol... I know white and black Russians, and whereas they are fine, they are not my preferred drinks.

That made me curious. What is your preferred cocktail? :3

I am not a very big fan of cocktails. I prefer plain drinks. If I have to choose one, I would probably pick a Mojito, which I like in general (except when made with really shitty rum) :)

That is a very interesting drink. Fermented, coffee, with some booze… put some THC in there! Jk, I’ll keep my eyes open for that little combo.
Seems like the perfect drink for a sunrise vacation type of morning fun, followed by a midday nap… cat nap.
