Islamic Smirnoff

Javad came home Monday and said they are selling booze at pharmacies here in Tehran. He asked me to go and ask for "Alkol Gandom" (wheat alcohol, larger image). I went to the pharmacy around the corner and sure enough they had some. It's under the Ettehadiyeh brand and produced legally with government permission (see back label and top). The label says "Alkol Tebbee" (medical alcohol). Yeah! This "medical" alcohol can easily compete with Smirnoff. Priced at around three US dollars, all I have to say is, "Woohooooooooooooooooo!!!"
