I prefer Lao Kao, it really is good quality.

Hey ......it is definitely better than Mekong , Hongtong or Saeng Som .......that is for sure. It is no worse than Tequila , vodka or gin. It is the excess drinking of it that leads to ruin not the stuff itself.

 

I am currently on a wine budget because it is actually cheaper than Lao Khao. 8 liters of Montclair at 1199 baht a box works out at about 114 baht a bottle. The Lao Khao plus 2 mixers plus a bottle of Leo for wifey was costing me 150 a day.

 

Saving money but the wine can give a mild hangover whereas the Lao Khao no hangover. Bit tough on the esophagus though.

I'm used to straight up with water chaser. Never tried as mixed drink.

This one is different!

I can trump that. (sorry for the expression, no double meaning intended)

 

My wife is different.

I am different.

Our dogs are different.

We are all different.

And so are the local monks and the village bobo.

Even the village PA system is different.
