Snake, scorpion, bird (black crow), hell in a bottle, Wine anyone??

I also saw this wine in China, which is where it originates from.
This wine infuses whole funky critters into rice wine or grain alcohol. Apparently its preferable to use venomous snakes, to get the best 'essence', but no worries, the poison is taken care of by the ethanol, so you won't die!

Tastes like intense whiskey... a hint of vanilla maybe?
2 sips and I had enough!



P.s from researching online, the medicinal value includes helping farsightedness, hair loss, and even increase sexual performance...
Oh the Chinese, haha!
