sg.news.yahoo.com/north-korean-alcohol-leaves-no-hangover-025030641.html?nhp=1North Korea has created a hangover-free liquor that is between 30 and 40 percent alcohol but leaves you clear-headed in the morning, according to state media. A recent edition of the Pyongyang Times said the drink, Koryo Liquor, used a cunning combination of six-year-old, top quality ginseng and "scorched glutinous rice". The resulting tipple is a subtle blend of sweet and savoury that is "highly appreciated by experts and lovers as it is suave and causes no hangover", the Times said. The wonder-drink has already been garlanded with prizes, including top spot at last year's national liquor show, the article added. The North Korean media has a long record of making extraordinary claims of the country's achievements in pretty much any field from medicine to sport and farming. Last year, the North's official KCNA news agency said scientists had developed a drug -- with ginseng again a major component -- that could cure AIDS, Ebola and MERS. The North's most recent, and literal, bombshell was the claim that its latest nuclear test -- conducted January 6 -- was of a powerful hydrogen bomb. International experts have largely dismissed the idea, saying the yield from the test was far too low for a full-fledged thermonuclear device.

I hope this story was written by the same author in North Korea that gets to write those hilarious "Our Supreme Leader scored a 15 on an 18 hole golf course."

I had some North Korean alcohol (assuming that the stuff sold at the DMZ gift shop was legit) and it tasted like rotten apples and depression.

It could be true, from a certain point of view.....as the sheer toxicity of said swill causes your body to vomit it out right away.

Is it just me, or am I the only one shocked more by this apparent photograph from North Korea???
Seriously - they allow random normal pictures to be taken?! This seems so wrong considering everything I've ever heard and known about the country.

then whats the point of drinking it? You drink to have hangovers? It would evidently still get a person intoxicated.
