Fig brandy is something that has to grow on you. It is produced in Portugal (named aguardente de figo), but apart from that it is a typically north African Jewish product. My first introduction to boukha was not very special (as is clear from the first review on this website), but it has indeed since then grown on my. I have tended to rate boukha higher and higher over time, and consequently the earlier ratings might require an update of some sorts. But that’s too late… Anyway, even though boukha Soleil is the ‘regular’ version of the Boukha Gold, the difference in quality is only marginal. I personally prefer boukha at room temperature, but it can also be drunk cold. 7/10
