Les Arcades Tamango

One of the «must dos» in Turin I suppose or at least that was what I was told. I shall instead let this serve as a warning. Tucked away on this street lies Tamango. With no sign and pretty dark on the inside with some deep house quietly playing, the establishment has become famously known for their homebrew concoction that is the Tamango which can be had no where else.
You’ll find lots of young people here, atleast i did just before their night out. When you order the tamango, the bar tender disappears into the back and brings forth a plastic cup filled with this pink liquid. If you will be drinking in, you can request it to be transferred to a glass.
It hits you, and it hits you hard. Imagine a cheap vodka that burns but this one burns 3 times as worse. Should you gulp; something I highly discourage, the burn will be felt all the way down your throat. I’m not a fan; I’m definitely a more smooth drink type person. My advice for drinking this is take sips of sip; yup that little at a time and seriously no more than one should EVER be needed. The rumour is it is over 60% alcohol but no one knows. Its all in the mystery.
I wouldn’t say that I’d go back; well to have a tamango, the bar was kinda cool but it was an interesting experience.
