Since nonalcoholic wine and beer are made, do they also make nonalcoholic whiskey, vodka, rum, etc.?!


Question: If so, what brands would you suggest I try? I can't drink alcohol, but if possible I'd like to try the different flavors and textures of drinks like whiskey, vodka, rum, etc.?

No such thing.
Non alcoholic vodka is known as "water"

The whole principle behind hard liquor is that the alcohol has been intentionally concentrated to the desired level (40% being typical, but it varies). Without the alcohol, it's not at all the same...even remotely. When you remove the alcohol from beer and wine, you're removing 5-15% of its volume...that's fairly insignificant. Removing 40% and you've done some major changing in the product. The flavor is determined by the alcohol, not to mention derived primarily from the alcohol.

Sure, you could do something like a non-alcoholic whiskey, but it's the same thing as sauteeing vegetables and calling it an eggless omelet.

I have never seen a non alcoholic gin, rum, vodka , etc.... I don't think they exist.

I dont think they exist, but there could be a market for that.....if they can continuously sell N/A beer and wine, why not liquors?

i think its a bit diff. because you have to age wiskey to get that taste that it has. and in that process it ferments. So i dont think it can happen bro. look in to it though.

I don't think they do

NA beer and wine isn't NA truly, they both have small amounts of alcohol in them. The process of distilling booze is all about concentrating a fermented product so assuming that you could make one it would still end up being rather capable of getting you drunk. For example, if you work strictly in ratios, if an NA beer contains 1% ABV and a "standard" beer contains 5% ABV then I think it would be safe to assume that an "NA liquor" would probably be about 20% of its former self which would still give it an ABV of at least 8%.

This is just loose logic but it seems to stand to reason IMO that an NA liquor is somewhat impractical if possible at all. I think you could make a low alcohol spirit but it wouldn't really cater to any sort of market.
