About this bottle
Mekhong the spirit of Thailand is named for the Mekong River which borders Laos. Launched in 1941, it was the first domestically-produced spirit of Thailand and the only one until the early 1980's. Known in Thailand as a whiskey, it can best be described as a flavored rum, produced from 95% sugar cane/molasses and 5% rice. Labeled as a neutral spirit (not technically a rum) from a base of cane and rice with herbs, spices and caramel added. This is unaged and the gold color is strictly from the added caramel. 35% ABV.

Horribly sweet and gummy. So regret ordering a daiquiri made with this.
