Here are some friends with simlar question as we.And I have this question for many days,anyone help us?
Kitty said: Yes.What is the meaning of the 42.8% v/v on alcohol bottles?-I try seach this on internet but no results found.Maybe this is a stupid question.
Mike said: oh,no,you are wrong.I have found as below for this question(What is the meaning of the 42.8% v/v on alcohol bottles?),it will help you,my kids.
I have been watching in every liquor bottle the same 42.8% v/v is appearing! If there is no difference between scotch/premium liquor to ordinary/cheap liquor why they are incscribing it? What percentage of the above mentioned liquor to be consumed to be in good healthy condition?
Answer:
Whether or not a liquor is "premium" has nothing to do with it's alcohol content. It's part ingredients from which it's distilled, part distilling method, part aging time, and part marketing.
The cheaper the ingredients, the less care in fermenting or distilling, the less time aged, the less it will cost, irrespective of its alcohol content.
Also, in the US, alcohol content is by volume, not by weight. It states this fact very specifically on all bottles.
Their are two ways of describing the amount of alcohol in a Fluid,
by Weight and by Volume. In the United States it is by Weight.
Most "Premium" booze (Scotch, bourbon, Tequila, vodka & Gin) are 80 proof. That is to say 40% Alcohol by weight. The country that you are in must do it by Volume. The difference in Weight between water and alcohol. accounts for the change.
When the Molson Brewing company first tried to import Brador Malt liquer into Vermont, they were stopped because it appeared to have to much alcohol to register as a beer. But once it was determined that Molson was figuring by volume and not weight, new calculations were done and Brador was allowed in.
Jack Daniels was once 90 proof (45 % by weight) but the Corporation which now makes it has weakend it twice in the last 16 years and it is now 40% . Wild Turkey still makes a 101 proof.
3 or so of any good Whiskey is just fine.
Cheers
