Great news, you can now buy whiskey flavored with beaver secretion
« on: June 13, 2018, 02:36:40 am »
Castoreum is a yellowish, strong-smelling secretion that comes from the castor sacs found near the base of a beaver’s tail. It’s an FDA-approved food additive, and hey, you can now get whiskey that’s flavored with the stuff.

That knowledge comes courtesy of this piece from Food & Wine’s Mike Pomranz, which spotlights a nice little beaver musk whiskey made by Tamworth Distilling of New Hampshire. Fear not, castoreum is an FDA-approved food additive. That’s actually how this spirit came about. Tamworth’s team was looking to develop a new spirit, and in hopes of securing a speedy all-clear from the Alcohol And Tobacco Tax And Trade Bureau, they went straight to the FDA’s list of ingredients that are already considered safe. Castoreum understandably caught their attention.

I'm glad I'm so far away from New Hampshire.  Even if I were tempted to buy some, it's too far away.

You're gonna get him a beaver?
Tell him to be careful with that. He could get a nipple bit off.
He need to wear protection. Pasties, maybe...

The smell of beaver castor is a pleasant smell. It has a sweet, musky smell.

Don't know if I want it in my drink, however
