The wine has a light red color. Its flavor resembles honeysuckle and ripe juicy peaches. The sweet taste sometimes has a barely perceptible almond like bitter aroma caused by the latent cyanide moiety.

Description

Busuioaca is a liqueur wine with a special body, with an unmistakable fragrance, a mixture of rose and basil giving it a special note, rarely found in other aromatic wines. Its aroma is unique, bringing honeysuckle and peach ripe, succulent, with perfect harmony of sugar, alcohol and acidity. Sweet taste sometimes has a bitter sensuous taste of almonds.

The Busuioaca de Bohotin variety is grown in four viticultural centers: Bohotin, Iași County, Huși, Vaslui County, Pietroasele, Buzău County and Tohani, Prahova County. If we gather the area cultivated with this variety in the four wine-growing centers, we have about 100 hectares, which makes the national production of authentic wine of Busuioaca de Bohotin very little.[2]

gollark: What does `pop` actually do? I know it's something something stack, is it moving the result into `eax` or taking the stack to be at `eax` or what?
gollark: How exciting.
gollark: Apparently chicken scheme (HelloBoi likes this) handles stack overflows by just shunting the entire stack onto the heap in case of overflow, or something weird like that.
gollark: This is mandatory.
