Boukha l’Oasis is one of the three boukha’s (fig brandy) made by the Tunisian Jewish Bokobsa family. The other two are the regular Boukha Bokobsa, and the Boukha Bokobsa Cuvée Prestige, also known as black label. The boukha has a fairly strong and particular taste, and quite a few tasters therefore do not like it. It certainly is something to get used to. If drunk cold, it is not too bad (probably because the cold disguises the real taste). I also recommend it in fruit juices. It smells rather nice and the bottle looks nice, but the other brands of boukha are better. 5/10.
