   I used to make my own for personnal use, not much taste. I mixed it with other things. The hotter you cook off the alcohol the weaker it is. If you cook it off about 170 degrees it is almost pure alcohol. If you boil it off as I did it is around 160 proof I imagine. Hot enough to use in my camp stove. I was a wine maker and just boiled the good stuff off of wine that didn't come out good. I would aslo use it to raise the alcohol level of wine to where I wanted it. My mom made brandy from it. Lots of uses. The only way I drank it straight was to poor a shot and then dip my finger in it and suck it off my finger as I watched TV, More like just absorbing it through your mouth than actually swallowing.

Hey Mike there was a lot of people in that peachy stuff the first batch was really good until the peaches got washed out. Wonder how many times it was refilled on those peaches.

Like others said, it depends on how it's made and one's tolerance level.  A lot of people like the peachy stuff.  Some of it tastes like gas.  I've got a small bottle that I sniff every now and then to clear my sinuses.   :o

Wasn't really talking about the Liquid...more of the nasty peaches that we all ate after about the third time that Jar was filled...... :-[ :P
