Well, there are two types of Kanar: the orange one from "Way of the Warrior", and the dark brown type from other episodes.

Heh, it's not surprising Kanar is an accuired taste, seeing as how prune juice is an accuired taste in the Star Trek universe....as well as Root Beer

It seems as though every major race in the Star Trek universe has its own special drink. The Klingons have blood wine, the Romulans have Romulan ale, and of course Kanar for the Cardassians. In all the episodes I've seen, I've never heard any reference to what any of them are made of (although I could make an educated guess about the blood wine ). Perhaps someone could correct me on this...
Kanar is very thick though, if you recall the scene where Damar splashed a glass of Kanar against his mirror. It would probably be almost like drinking alcoholic jam. Definitely an acquired taste.

The dark Kanar that was used in the last seasons of Deep Space Nine was made with glucose or something. It made Cassey Biggs who played Damar sick sometimes from drinking it. I read it in some Star Trek magazine, not sure which one though.
