A new Doritos-flavored liquor is set to be released. While I can't answer "who asked for this," I can help you with some commonly asked questions about this odd flavor mash-up.

Who Is Making A Doritos Liquor?

Empirical is a Delaware-based maker of spirits with unique ingredients such as smoked Jerusalem artichoke leaf, plum kernel and, yes, nacho cheese-flavored Doritos. The company's co-founder, Lars Williams, explains the flavor came about while he was still trying to figure what he could distill during the early days of the brand. An employee came back one afternoon with a sandwich and Doritos for lunch. Williams decided to see how he could incorporate chips straight from the employee's bag into the distilling process.

What Does It Taste Like?

Here's what Empirical says you should expect when it comes to flavor: "Experience the indulgent flavors of your favorite snack in liquid form. The spirit opens with umami and tangy aromas of nacho cheese, moving to the deeper, corn-forward flavors of the chip to finish on a soft salty note."
