About This Style
What These Profiles Represent
Under U.S. TTB labeling standards, cordials and liqueurs are flavored distilled spirits made with natural flavoring materials or extracts and at least 2.5 percent sugar by weight. Honey liqueur is used here as a DUI Professional subtype label for honey-forward liqueur records, not as a claim that every product uses the same legal class or formula.
Documented product context shows a mixed subtype rather than one origin story. Schwarze & Schlichte lists Bärenjäger as a 35% liqueur made with vodka and more than 200 g honey per 0.7 L; Whyte & Mackay traces Glayva to Leith, Edinburgh in 1947; Jack Daniel's, Evan Williams, and Wild Turkey official materials describe U.S. whiskey or bourbon blended with honey or honey liqueur.
The live DUI Professional profile set for Liqueur / Honey contains 8 profiles. Six have usable producer information, supporting production geography in Germany, Scotland, Bardstown, Lynchburg, and Lawrenceburg; Krupnik and Xtabentun currently remain active legacy records without Producer information, so they are included in averages but not mapped as manufacturer-backed geography.
The database average is useful for subtype screening, not for a consumed-drink assumption. For BAC simulation, use the selected drink record, actual pour volume, and product ABV, especially because individual honey liqueur records in this subtype range from 32.5% to 40% ABV.
Use these Honey profiles to compare ABV, serving size, and estimated standard-drink dose before adding a drink to a simulation. For case work, start with the specific drink profile and then adjust pour volume, drink timing, and any case-specific assumptions.
