Decent liquor FAQ

[Joey]

There are more than a few types of liquors out there, and all of them have their own little subtle nuances. It can get pretty confusing. I was going to draft my own little liquor FAQ, so our less informed members would know what exactly they're drinking, but this one covers most of the stuff I wanted to. So here it is, it's simply a concise, general overview on types of liquor: SPORTSMAN'S Fine Wines & Spirits - General Liquor FAQ's

They did miss my favorite variety of gin though, Plymouth (It's a brand, but it's also considered to be a type). I love their "Navy Strength" variety at 57%abv. It was so dubbed because back in the day you could spill it onto gunpowder and it would still ignite.

I was thinking of this as more of a general overview of the different spirits, so it takes some of the mystery out of it for some people. For example, some of my friends are pretty clueless as to the difference between say whiskey and brandy. They're both brown, both usually at least 80 proof, both aged for a few years minimum, but both are still very different. Cognac is covered in the FAQ, unless you mean it should have the recommended serving conditions. And Jager is a liqueur, so it really doesn't belong in there.
