As every alcoholic beverage, it might be dangerous, depending on your consumption and its origin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
garyh Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 Be very carefull of the local moonshine, they often add some poison to it to give it more kick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dingdongrb Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 You may call them 'friend' now but in the morning (errrr late afternoon) I am sure you will call them another name.... Oh, BTW, it's not white alcohol it's merely another octane of gasoline... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
endure Posted November 14, 2008 Share Posted November 14, 2008 It's usually a good idea to stop posting when you've had a few too many. You tend to say things that you wish you hadn't the next morning Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paagai Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 Lao Khao story: So I'm visiting a friend in a village up near Chaing Dao and go off for a short walk. Passing a house there's a shout of "Farang, come here", where there's this group of about 6 people sitting at a table drinking this stuff! They immediatley offered me a glass and wanted me to down it in one with them (probably the only way you can drink it is without it touching the sides ), all very friendly and nice, then they pour another, and another...... before I made my excuses and escaped! 30 minutes later I'm back at my friend's house and he can't understand how I came to be drunk at 11 a.m. in a village that has no bars! Amazing Thailand. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ollylama Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 i don't find the official bottled, labeled variety all that hangover-inducing. 50 baht for a 600ml bottle, add some ya dong herbal powder, shake well and add it to orange juice. Good taste and good for you. i feel worse after a night of beering. but that's just me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PoorSucker Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 In Thailand, home-brewed alcohol, most commonly distilled from glutinous rice, is called lao khao (เหล้าขาว; literally "white liquor") or officially sura khao (สุราขาว). It is sometimes mixed with various herbs to produce a medicinal drink called yadong (ยาดอง; literally "fermented herb (in alcohol)"). Yadong is prepared by mixing lao khao with many kind of herbs and keeping the mixture for 2-4 weeks[21]before it can be used. Some people said that it help them regain strength.[22] Today there is instant herb for making yadong, which shorten time for making it.

manjara Posted November 15, 2008 Share Posted November 15, 2008 In my wife's home village it comes in bin bags (the big black ones) and then you pour it into whatever bottles you have lying around. There's litres of the stuff drunk at all the funerals and it get's you drunk at about the same rate as whisky. I usually come with a bottle of JW Black and then get offered the local moonshine in return. Sometimes they add some tree bark to the bottle and leave for a while, which gives it a different taste. It's never done me irreparable harm (as far as I know), except to my reputation, when I had a bit toooooo much...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BangkokBP Posted November 16, 2008 Share Posted November 16, 2008 Ive never drunk this stuff before, very cloudy, milky white.Cant look at the PC screen anymore.. just too bright! Never seen Lao khao that is white and cloudy, if you drink something white and cloudy, it might be Sato. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whiterussian Posted November 16, 2008 Author Share Posted November 16, 2008 (edited) Thanks! I will ask my pal tonight. Might explain the psychadelic effects: Looking on wikipedia: Sato (rice wine) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sato_(rice_wine) it says: CAUTIONSome molds and yeasts produce mycotoxins. Ergot, the common name of a fungus in the genus Claviceps that is parasitic on certain grains and grasses, also occurs in tropical regions, and may cause ergotism. Sato and its ingredients should therefore come from trusted sources. Ergotism http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ergotism As well as seizures there can be hallucinations resembling those produced by LSD symptoms include painful seizures and spasms, diarrhea, paresthesias, itching, headaches, nausea and vomiting. (check,check,check..) or maybe i just cant handle my beers Edited November 16, 2008 by UKWEBPRO Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean, would you even notice the seizure.( or would you by that point really care. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
