Acquired "Goaty" taste. start with small very cold glasses.

Health Food stores sell it, pasteurized by law, but i would only buy FROZEN there to ensure freshness.

"Goaty" aroma is from 4-ethyloctanal and oxydizes on a airstream to 4-ethyloctanoic acid , a "goaty odor" along with Caproic acid

Also not mentioned is another more powerful and more famous goat smell :

hexanoic acid, also known as Caproic acid

"Caproic" is literally "Goat"

I do not know why that first paper I linked went out of its way to dismiss effect of goats emitting Caproic Acid and to focus on a sex hormone so much.
