🥃 Everclear 151 Proof
Everclear 151 proof, 75.5% ABV; more widely available where the 190 proof is banned.
Everclear 151 Proof is a line of the Everclear neutral grain spirit at 151 proof, or 75.5% ABV. VinePair calls it a legal option in states where the 190 version is banned, and writes that it is still very strong. Like the others, it is a base for infusions and dilution, not a finished drink.
The base is the same as in the other lines: according to Tasting Table, corn distilled repeatedly to a neutral spirit. Luxco offers this line in bottles from 200 ml to 1.75 litres. VinePair links it to home infusions. It has fewer restrictions, but Tasting Table writes that some states set age and quantity limits even for the weaker versions.
Why this matters to you. The 151 is weaker than Everclear 190 Proof, but it is still far stronger than vodka, so it too should be diluted. Check the proof on the label and the local rules. The WHO reminds us that there is no safe level of alcohol.
