It was mighty good, and fun to chew on when the drink was done. I don't know where they got it from, but I know it was very expensive and imported from somewhere not in the states. Sometimes we couldn't use it because it was unavailable. (here's a wierd sidebar: the TC spellcheck gives "coots" as a replacement for the word mojito. Go figure. :wink: )
