Single malt whisky is a whisky made at one particular distillery from a mash that uses one particular malted

grain, which is ordinarily barley.Single malts are typically associated with Scotland, though they are also produced in various other countries.[1]Under Scotch Whisky Regulations, a "Single Malt Scotch Whisky" must be made exclusively from malted barley (although the addition of E150A caramel colouring is allowed), must be distilled using a pot still, and must be aged for at least three years in oak casks of a capacity not exceeding 700 litres. Whisky (Scottish English) or whiskey (Hiberno-English) is a type of distilled alcoholic beverage made from fermented grain mash. Different grains are used for different varieties, including barley, malted barley, rye, malted rye, wheat, and maize (corn).

Vodka is a distilled beverage. It is composed primarily of water and ethanol with traces of impurities and flavorings.Vodka is made by distillation of fermented substances such as grains, potatoes, or molasses.

Gin is a spirit whose predominant flavor is derived from juniper berriesAlthough several different styles of gin have existed since its origins, it is broadly differentiated into two basic legal categories. Distilled gin is crafted in the traditional manner, by redistilling neutral spirits of agricultural origin with juniper berries and other botanicals. Compound gin is made by simply flavoring neutral spirit with essences and/or other 'natural flavorings' without redistillation, and is not as highly regarded. Light rum (also known as "silver" or "white" rum), is a dry, light-bodied rum, light in color and lightly sweet in flavor. It is produced from sugarcane juice and molasses, and normally has a short aging period.Unlike other various rums which are aged in charred oak casks, light rum is simply aged in plain oak casks or stainless steel tanks, so it remains clear.

Rum is a distilled alcoholic beverage made from sugarcane by-products such as molasses, or, directly from sugarcane juice, by a process of fermentation and distillation. The distillate, a clear liquid, is then usually aged in oak barrels. Rum can be referred to by descriptors such as ron viejo ("old rum") and "ron aejo" ("aged rum").

Brandyis a spirit produced by distilling wine. Brandy generally contains 35% 60% alcohol by volume and is typically taken as an after-dinner drink. Some brandies are aged in wooden casks, while some are simply coloured with caramel colouring to imitate the effect of such agingBrandy is also produced from fermented fruits other than grapes, but these products are typically called eaux-de-vie.In some countries, fruit flavouring or some other flavouring may be added to a spirit that is called "brandy".

Cognac ( / k njk/ KON-yak), named after the town of Cognac in France, is a variety of brandy. It is produced in the wine-growing region surrounding the town from which it takes its name, Champagne is a sparkling wine produced by inducing the in-bottle secondary fermentation of the wine to effect carbonation. It is produced exclusively within the Champagne region of France,from which it takes its name. The primary grapes used in the production of Champagne are Pinot noir, Chardonnay and Pinot Meunier. Wine is an alcoholic beverage, made of fermented fruit juice, usually from grapes.The natural chemical balance of grapes lets them ferment without the addition of sugars, acids, enzymes, or other nutrients.[2] Grape wine is produced by fermenting crushed grapes using various types of yeast. Yeast consumes the sugars in the grapes and converts them into alcohol. Different varieties of grapes and strains of yeasts produce different types of wine.Wines made from other fruits, such as apples and berries, are normally named after the fruit from which they are produced (for example, apple wine or elderberry wine) and are generically called fruit wine

Cachaa (Portuguese pronunciation: [ka as ]) is a liquor made from fermented sugarcane. It is the most popular distilled alcoholic beverage in Brazil. It is also known as aguardente, pinga, caninha and many other names. Cachaa is mostly produced in Brazil .The major difference between cachaa and rum is that rum is usually made from molasses, a by-product from refineries that boil the cane juice to extract as much sugar crystal as possible, while cachaa is made from fresh sugarcane juice that is fermented and distilled.
