7/26 SATTHE PALACE OF WONDER

That’s what I’m going to call this. I wanted to go with Goo Goo Muck, just to make a Cramps reference, but it wasn’t quite on the money.

It’s mostly beer here at FujiRock, but you’ll find the occasional stall offering sake, wine and spirits. Outside the main gates in the Palace of Wonder, you can also find this perplexing drink, advertised as truthfully as possible – it’s listed as green tea & Kahlua. Sounds like a mistake, doesn’t it? As if someone mixed a vat of the stuff by accident and they couldn’t afford to take the hit on liquor, so they sold it anyway?

I drank it strictly because my companions thought it would be funny. In truth, the first few sips proved to be far less unbearable than originally expected. It was sweet with an earthy o-cha undertone. The next few sips proved the challenge, though, because suddenly it was too sweet with too earthy an undertone.

I recommend it only for its entertainment value.
