Mahia

[sgreen0]

Does anyone know where I might buy some Mahia? It is an Eau de Vie of Prunes that is typical of Moroccan Jews.

I've searched online and found many references to it - even a picture of a bottle of Mahia. But I haven't found a source for purchase.

Thanks for any help you can offer.

Have you tried it? Our friends bought a bottle and we sampled it with them. It tasted like a very rough eau-de-vie with anise and fig undertones. We did not care for it - not refined enough for sipping and it did not seem very versatile for cocktails.

I wonder much you'd have to fail at internetting to be still searching after seven years...

Even seven years ago, there were a lot fewer companies that had an online presence. Hell, today, there are still plenty of companies that have no website.
