    Addendum regarding: The 2021 Certified Specialist of Spirits Study Guide, as published by the Society of Wine Educators Note: This document outlines the substantive changes to the 2021 Study Guide as compared to the 2020 version of the CSW Study Guide. All page numbers reference the 2020 version. Please note that in addition to the information noted below, the tables concerning top-selling brands of particular types of spirits have been updated to reflect the most current statistics available. Page 10: The information regarding congeners was expanded to include the following: Congeners: The preceding explanation of distillation has been simplified by using the example of a solution made of only ethyl alcohol and water. However, many other compounds are created during fermentation and as a result, there are other compounds besides water and alcohol present in a fermented solution. Known as congeners, these compounds are responsible for much of the aroma and flavor—besides that of pure ethyl alcohol and water—of a fermented beverage or a distilled spirit. Specific congeners include the various acids, esters, aldehydes, fusel oils, and alcohols (other than ethanol) that are developed during fermentation. During distillation, congeners may vaporize and blend in with the ethanol–water vapors; however, each specific congener will react differently based on three factors: boiling point, solubility (in ethanol and water), and specific gravity. In addition, the heat of the distillation process—via a series of chemical changes known as pyrolysis—may cause some compounds to change form, creating new and different congeners that may be passed onto the finished product.

  • Fortified Wine Production
    BEGINNER FORTIFIED WINE PRODUCTION Content contributed by Kimberly Bricker, Imperial Beverage Material contained in this document applies to multiple course levels. Reference your syllabus to determine specific areas of study. Wine was originally fortified, or strengthened, to better sustain itself during the journey to those importing it. The addition of brandy or neutral grape spirit would kill off the yeasts, which are constantly in the process of converting sugars to alcohol. Once the alcohol by volume reaches 16-18%, yeasts die. The remaining sugars are never converted into alcohol, and the natural sugars of the wine persist. Wines can be fortified at various stages in their fermentation, sweetened or colored with a variety of techniques. Different grape varietals can be used. Grapes can be dried. Wines can be boiled and reduced, cooked, aged in a solera, or aged in a boat that travels halfway across the world and back. They can be enjoyed immediately or aged for over 200 years. Port, Sherry, Madeira, Marsala, Malaga, Montilla-Moriles, and Vin Doux Naturels (VDN’s) are all Fortified Wines. Most people think of stuffy British old men drinking out of little glasses in a mahogany Sherry library with their pinkies out when they “Oh I must’ve been a dreamer think of Sherry- if they think of Sherry. And I must’ve been someone else While that image may have relegated Sherry, as an old-fashioned wine, to the And we should’ve been over back of the cool class, that is only part of Oh Sherry, our love the picture. Both Christopher Columbus Holds on, holds on…” and Ferdinand Magellan filled their ships ‘Oh Sherry’ by Steve Perry with Sherry when they set sail to discover the New World.

  • Spirits – What Are the Risks for Young People?
    FACT SHEET 7 SPIRITS – WHAT ARE THE RISKS FOR YOUNG PEOPLE? Alcoholic products are usually grouped into three general classes: beer wine spirits All alcoholic drinks contain ethanol, commonly known as alcohol. A distilled beverage, liquor, or spirit is an alcoholic beverage containing ethanol that is produced by distillation. Distilling is the process of separating the alcohol from a water/alcohol solution, by heating and fermenting either grain, fruit, or vegetables. Beer, cider and wine are not classed as spirits because they are ‘undistilled’ fermented beverages. The term ‘spirit’ refers to a distilled beverage that contains no added sugar and has at least 20% alcohol by volume. Popular spirits in Australia include vodka, whisky, bourbon, rum, gin, rum, and tequila. Here are a list of some of the most popular spirits and their source product: Source Distilled beverage Grains: Barley Whiskey Corn Whiskey, vodka Wheat Whiskey, vodka Rice Sake Fruit: Grapes Brandy, vermouth, cognac Apples Cider Juniper berries Gin Vegetables: Potatoes Vodka Sugarcane/molasses Rum Agave Tequila Liqueurs are distilled beverages that contain added sugar and flavourings (popular products in Australia include Tia Maria and Kahlua). The difference between spirits and liqueurs is widely ignored; consequently all alcoholic beverages other than beer and wine are generally referred to as spirits. Different alcohol products contain varying concentrations of alcohol. Some products have limitations on their alcohol content due to their source product. For example, most yeasts cannot reproduce when the concentration of alcohol is higher than about 18%, as a result the alcohol content of beer and wine is limited to that level – around 20%.
