Giving New Meaning to the Word “Beer”
It’s Bir Pletok. Or Pletok Beer. It’s Batavian spiced drink. Not “the beer” you usually have friday night 
It’s a beer for people like me, who love cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, clove, lemongrass, cardamom, and all the magic healing aroma of spices around the world.Do not expect any alcohol. In fact, the only high you’ll get from drinking this, is only the high of rememberance of old time when spices were gold and whoever ruled spices was the king of the world.
The Famous Secang Wood
The flavor and smell was so strong it immediately kicks my afternoon laziness. The heat it produced brought comforting warmth I need before going to bed at night. Threw in some ice cubes and I was ready to have a picnic the Famous Five way (remember Julian, Dick, Anne, George, Timmy?).
For those of you who don’t really like spiced things, or are not used to herbal things, or are not sure if you’ll like it, I’m sorry I have to advice you to stay away from this drink.
This, is for hard core
spice & herb freaks only.
spice & herb freaks only.
You have been warned.
