Excerpt from Guide to the Analysis of Potable Spirits

English that is exclusively devoted to the subject, and in most manuals on the analysis of foods and drugs, including malt liquors, wines, and spirits, the question of differentiating one kind of spirit from another is either ignored entirely or receives such scant treatment as to afford no practical guidance whatever. In endeavouring to fill this breach, the author would urge upon public analysts to give greater practical study than heretofore to this ih teresting and important branch of analytical work. The question is bound to occupy their attention sooner or later in connection with their official duties. Already several convictions have been oh tained throughout the country under the Sale of Food and Drugs Act, in which the evidence of analysis was accepted as proving certain samples of brandy to be not genuine grape spirit.
