I keep finding strange things that belong here without looking for them.
(I found this article while reading about the Russian family who lived in isolation for 40 years.

Re: Falernum
I'm pretty sure that "carls" and "zin" brought me some Falernum, when they came to stay in Budapest. It seemed pretty good, at the time.

Re: Falernum
Falernum is basically for the old, original Tiki drinks. I don't think it's worth the hunt for falernum if you have a good orgeat lying about, and it's frankly funky sipped on its own. The John D.Taylor's falernum is especially flavorless and the bottle cap is too ramshackle to screw back on.

Falernum is easily available in the UK and USA.
