Kusturica would be proud of you.
It's nice to drink from a bottle with a story behind it. It's a shame it has such a horrific story :/

The bottle vs The story. Its some kind of twisted ying&yang, if you can keep them in balance you wake up with a really profound experience. As if the bottle encapsulated splinters of its past and now they are pouring into you...or it might be just the alcohol.

Bacardi 151. Pretty good stuff. Tastes like gasoline.
This statement makes zero sense. But, you probably knew that.
Sure it does... if you accept that I like how gasoline tastes. Normally, if I drink, I drink single malt scotch whiskey.

Moonshine. Tasted like kerosene, got me utterly pissed after only 4 shots, and I'm not a lightweight. Burned real bad coming out later too.
Seriously if you had drunk kerosene nothing bad after that
Meths and white spirit are both worse than 95RON unleaded petrol!!

Poteen. Irish illegal potato liquor. The one I tried was 95% ABV, the highest alcoholic drinks can actually go, because the rest is just water retained naturally.

It bared an alarming similarity to being kicked in the head. You have to be careful with that stuff, it'll very easily kill you. I just had one shot and it almost knocked me out cold.
Ah puteen, never had the privilage of trying it.

I don't know about the strongest, I don't keep track. But the most delicious was a bottle of honey rum I bought at a convention charity auction. Well worth the 110.

StrohRom it's a typ of rum with about 80% alcohol, and it taste awful >_<
also there are two types of "proof" the older UK kind (not really used anymore) where 175 is 100% alcohol, and the US witch is just double the volume %.

95%. Bearing in mind that 100% is actually poisonous to humans.
All alchohol is poisonous to humans. Increasing the % doesn't suddenly turn it from non-poison to poison. The same effect as 100% pure alchohol could be acheived by drinking just a slightly larger amount of 95% alchohol.
very high concentrations of alcohol act as a fairly powerful solvent and desiccant, and can therefore damage your throat and stomach if you drink too mutch. Also heat distillation cannot achieve 100% pure ethanol, maximum 95.6%). and some of the methods used to gain more than 95.6% will leave small amounts of poisonous substances behind.

Ah poteen, never had the privilage of trying it.
with a relatively small distillation tower you can purify alcohol to over 98%, only like man height or a little taller.

I will stick with smirnoff vodka or a nice spiced rum.

If I want to get tipsy just hand me the scotch or the Jameson

I'm pretty sure that when you feel alcohol "burn" your throat, it's minor cellular damage due to the things u just said. after all, liquer makes a pretty decent cleaning agent for a cut, and THAT burn is because it's killing cells where it contacts them before being diluted.

i hate to tell ya but moonshine is stronger and for all those that don't know 1%=2 proof. ive had moonshine that doesn't bubble. since moonshine is illegal it didn't have a proof but connoisseurs know that the stronger a drink the less bubbles are made when you shake it and they last shorter amounts of time. id say it was 97% or 194 proof. its not even fun to drink at that point though just tastes like your drinking fire

80% absinthe, to my knowledge, but it's possible some of the home-made "vodka" I had in Russia may have been over that.

Nope. They have stuff In Canada thats 100% lol. Everclear is for sissies lol.
Pretty sure that 100% pure Alcohol is basically poison and will likely kill you. 95% is the highest it goes, and that's deadly and illegal in a lot of countries.

You can't get over 95-96%
At that purity alcohol is a gas.
