The word "spirits" in distilled beverages actually comes from the actual processing of the liquids turning to "vapour" or "gas", going up the steaming pipe, and back on the other side as "liquid" again...but now as "purified" liquid. ... Solids+liquids > Liquid > vapour/gas/steam > purified liquids > flavour/distillation = SPIRITS
Great video lui. Would be great if you could make a video debunking or confirming myth that additive free tequila rubbing on hands doesn't leave sticky residue
Thanks man been stuck on your videos. I have tried most of your tequila recommendations and oowee. Definitely take your advice on future buys. Can you do an in depth video on sotol?
this is an awesome video still don't know how i got here, but I'm staying for a drink working on getting my tequila stash up to par now also, if you have already done so, can you do a video on resort/ vacation tequilas, please? espolon, jimador, cazadores, luna azul or any other ones resorts/ hotels may offer even good tequilas you can find going through duty free in the airport thanks
Hey lui! you should do a review for some new some tequila brands named chrome horse and Lana. Chrome horse won a spirit prize last year so thought you maybe interested!
One interesting thing I learned about the history of Gin is that it was originally created by monks in the Middle Ages as a Plague medicine. And of course, over time, it started being treated more as a beverage than a medicine.
@@Lui_FernI also enjoyed that story of how the term Spirit came to be, in reference to distilled alcohol. I always thought it was because the alcohol evaporates and goes airborne (in a still of course), and hence it went became a chemical spirit. Sort of like how distillers use the term Angel’s Share in reference to alcohol that evaporates through the barrels in a rickhouse during the barrel aging process.
First, great video. Second i hope this doesn't offend you. You missed something, i know a little about. Just to make it super short, Mead is one if not the oldest alcohol in the world. Mead isn't beer or wine as its fermented with honey which is neither grain or fruit.
Yeah. You right. I missed mead. I should've talked about it. It wasn't first on my mind because not many bars (at least around me) carry it. But nonetheless, I did miss it
Lui, still love ya but tell me when your at your place, was with Eli was amazing but I need to know when your in so I can argue about the virtues of Cazcannes!
I thought amaro was always Italian. Sure, similar products are made in other places around the world, but they shouldn't be called amaro. I wonder how that american product you had can call themselves amaro... Great video!
As a 19 year old server who needs to know about different types of alcohol, I thank you very much lol
You're so welcome 🤗 that was one of the reasons I wanted to make this video.
Slight correction on the St. George vodka: they use a non-gmo corn neutral grain spirit base that they blend with some of their pear distillate.
⭐️Fantastic video! Thank you!
Happy you enjoyed it 😁
Terrific video Lui! Love my peated scotch!!

The typical sprit in Colombia is Aguardiente, which is made from sugarcane that has a strong anise flavor.

So many spirits share this origin! I have always found it utterly fascinating as well.

whats your opinion on Tears of Llorna extra anejo $300 and I thought it was garbage
Costco has El Tesoro Blanco tequila for around $40. That's the first good tequila that they carry
Forgot mead! 🐝😊
