What is the highest alcohol volume have you drank ? And was it red or white ?!


Question: What is the highest alcohol volume have you drank !? And was it red or white !?
Just curious because I' ve seen such a variation from 12% to 14% !.
Have you seen higher then this !?
And if so does it affect the taste the higher the % !?Www@FoodAQ@Com


Answers:
Alcohol differs with what kind of drink your drinking, wine and beer can be strong but not near as strong as the spirits!. Rum Vodka, Gin, and Bourbons are much stronger!. Proof is double the percent of alcohol you see, so if it is 80 proof, then the bottle contains 40% alcohol!. The highest I know of is ever-clear, it is almost pure alcohol by volume!.
I hope that helps you!Www@FoodAQ@Com

You are talking strictly wines!? I don't see much of a volume variance and don't bother taking note of it!.

I drink 61% cask strength scotch (Aberlour A'bunadh)

I'm afraid to drink anything higher!.!.!.not because of the strength or I'm going to die but thinking it would taste like battery acid!. That A'bunadh is one of the better scotches I had!.

When I dilute it with a few drops of water, it weakens the palate but the nose is more complex!. Www@FoodAQ@Com

I have seen alcohol higher than this percentage!. FOr example i've seen percentage up to 75!.5% which is bacardi 151!.
Of course the higher the percentage, the nastier the taste!. It like burns as it runs down your throat and its clear just like water!. Www@FoodAQ@Com
