  This sounds like it might be interesting, but...

Has anyone out there tried the Absolut Peppar (SP?) vodka? I haven't
been able to find a nice small sized bottle to sample. I did find a
small bottle (50ML) of the Mandarin. It may have just been me not being
accustomed to drinking this kind of stuff straight, but I thought it
tasted as I might imagine turpentine tasting. I enjoy a little mixed in
with juice, but straight was awful. I don't imagine the Peppar would
taste much better straight, but mixed with?????? Any reports?
Thanks,
