I remember years ago when I was starting my spirit drinking journey with rum and there was one true abomination..pyrat xo rum which had orange flavor added..man that was disgusting. After that other than an actual orange in whole or juice form nothing orange has crossed my lips. Now i didn't realise what curacao was until I took a sniff of this one and thought hmm smells like mint and something else, took a sip and then spat it out as heavily ethanoled orangeness assaulted my palate. After a heavy dosing of water...argh no it really isn't doing it for me. If you like high abv base ethanol mixed with peppermint and orange liqueur you'll love this. Eventually swirling around the mouth wasn't too bad even enjoyable to a degree but then having to swallow and that aftertaste... i'm with @dubz480 on this one a very charitable 3.
