Spirits differ from wine and beer in that they are

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Spirits are made by first fermenting a base material (such as grain, fruit, or potatoes) to create a low alcohol wine-like liquid, which is then distilled to increase the alcohol concentration. Wine and beer are not distilled, but are instead made through fermentation alone. Option B is incorrect because while some spirits may be made from potatoes, it is not a requirement for all spirits. Option C is partially correct, as some spirits are made from grapes and grains, but other base materials may also be used. Option D is incorrect, as there are many spirits made from base materials other than fruit.
