Jeppson’s Malört is a notoriously bitter, wormwood-based Swedish liqueur that has become a Chicago cultural icon, known for its intense flavor and “rite of passage” status in the city’s drinking culture. Introduced by Swedish immigrant Carl Jeppson, it’s a type of bäsk brännvin, traditionally consumed as a digestif, and is famous for its unique, herbal, and citrusy bite that is loved and hated in equal measure.

Irresponsible? Yes. Good for sales? Somehow, also yes.
Can I find this in the SF Bay Area in under 22 hours?
The juice? Easily. I got my last bottle at a total wine.
The poster … No idea.
Shit. I don’t think I can take on a whole bottle. Can I just pop by your place for a shot?
I’m always down for shots of malort.
I’m in San Mateo until tomorrow night, LMK
Oof, I’m a good hour plus away with any traffic. You can definitely find it in bars though!
5 hours left …hope you found it, your dad won’t fight himself
Kind of tastes like Sambuca to me, and then the aftertaste is so bitter it seems like you need to call poison control.
