Ethanol, also known as pure edible ethyl alcohol, is a clear, colourless liquid with a characteristic pleasant odour and burning sensation to taste. Notably flammable, it is a solvent for various chemicals, effortlessly blending with water and numerous organic compounds. Designated as a volatile organic compound by the National Pollutant Inventory, eco ethanol has widespread applications such as being used as an antiseptic.

All types of organic ethanol alcohol are produced using methods from organic farming in which, in this case, the grapes are grown without pesticides, artificial fertilizers or herbicides and are processed without preservatives or food additives. AQIS regulates certified organic ethanol alcohol, which can be used as food-grade ethanol for human consumption.
The alcohol label also says it is highly flammable, so you should treat it like petrol, meanwhile, as it is 95% or 190 proof. Warm 40% alcohol will burn easily if it is warm, so be careful. Keep out of reach of children.
What is food grade ethanol?
Food grade ethanol is high strength food safe ethyl alcohol with no additives, so it is fit for human consumption. Food safe edible ethanol alcohol can be referred to by several commonly used names such as food grade ethanol, grain alcohol, non denatured alcohol, and extra neutral alcohol or neutral brandy spirit.
What's The Difference Between Alcohol and Ethanol Alcohol?
The difference between alcohol and ethanol alcohol is straightforward. There are several types of alcohol. Ethyl alcohol, known as ethanol, is the only type of alcohol that you can drink without poisoning yourself, and then only if it hasn't been denatured or doesn't contain toxic impurities.
Pure ethanol has many other non-chemical names, such as grain alcohol because it is the main type of alcohol produced by grain fermentation. However, here we make our organic ethanol from grapes. Methanol or methyl alcohol is another type of alcohol that is poisonous to humans.

Can you buy 100% alcohol or 200 proof alcohol?
No, you cannot buy 200-proof alcohol or 200-proof food grade ethanol at a retail store. Simply, the way the alcoholic spirit is made in a column still and the mixture of ethanol and water becomes a minimum-boiling azeotrope at this 96.1 % concentration, not 200 proof. This means that about 96% ABV or 192 proof is the maximum percentage of alcohol that can be obtained without chemically drying the alcoholic spirit. To dry the 190 proof alcohol and remove the water watch this video on drying alcohol.
If you are looking for rubbing alcohol that is made from isopropyl alcohol then that is different from food-grade alcohol for diluting for drinking.

External use ONLY
You will see the label says, "External Use Only". Why does it say this? It is because internal use straight from the bottle will kill you. You must dilute the alcohol for consumption.
However, if you are making limoncello or a tincture and following the proper recipe you will find that an alcohol level lower than 40% will be OK to consume.
Can you drink pure ethanol?
Some people search Google for the answer to "Can you drink pure ethanol" or pure 95% alcohol? NO, is the simple answer. If 190 proof ethanol is ingested it burns the internal organs and throat lining, then alcohol toxicity takes over and death comes knocking on the door.
