I don't know why, but it tastes kind of chemical or fake to me. I find that I need to add more simple syryp to make up for the bitter taste. It may be because I have been using Hiram Walker Orange Curacao, which is only 30 proof compared to Seniors 60. I just bought a bottle of Marie Brizards Orange Curacao ($18) which is also 60 proof, so I plan to comparethe 3 I have side by side. Unfortunately I've already had 3 Mai Tai's tonight and my tastebuds are shot... but I"M FELING FINE!!! My experiment may have to wait for another day, but I will keep y'all posted. -T.J.
