I find unusual spirits interesting, and I want to hear about the ones you have.

The most unusual spirit I have in my collection is a raspberry liquer, made from distilled raspberries.

It is called RoslagsHallon and is made a few scandinavian miles borth of where I live by Nortälje Brenneri:

(Just click "JAG HAR FYLLT 20 ÅR" to get in)

It makes a fantasticly dangerous summer drink when mixed with sprite, you hardly feel the alcohol, but the taste is amazing, with a fairly standard sprite tast first, that explodes into a full raspberry taste with the aftertaste.

I seldom drink, and drink little when I do, but this is brilliant.

Similar to kirchwasser, I’d guess? I love fruit brandies. At various times I’ve drank raspberry, pear, cherry and more common ones like grappa.

I have never tried Kirchwasser, so I don't know myself, but from the description it is peobably similar

I have that as well, I have yet to try that one though, and I also have the pear one on one of my lists in Systembolaget and will order it later.
