gamiest

Strongest in flavor

Gamiest is the superlative of gamy (also spelled gamey).

At its most literal, it describes meat—especially wild game—with the strongest, most pungent flavor: That venison was the gamiest I've ever tasted.

Extended uses suggest something disreputable, risqué, or having a strong odor: the gamiest stories from his bachelor days, the gamiest locker room in the league.
