A strong, clear alcoholic liquor distilled from rye or grain, popular in Eastern Europe and Russia.
From Russian 'anisette' and similar Slavic spirit names. The term refers to a type of schnapps flavored with anise or caraway seeds popular since the 1700s.
Allasch might sound exotic, but it's just a rye whiskey relative—similar to how Germans have their schnapps, Russians had their allasch!
