If you refer to wines and spirits, there are still many full of bitter
herbs, etc that many people , especially young people, do not like at
first but often end up drinking them on a regular basis. Vermouth
comes to mind, but Italy, France, Spain, etc. have many wines and
spirits that are quite bitter. They perhaps are not as popular in the
US as in parts of Europe. Also bone dry wines can be somewhat of an
acquired taste. Many young people start drinking somewhat sweet wine,
but then enjoy very dry wines after a few years.
