BAC Simulation Context
DUI Professional uses drink profiles as structured inputs for alcohol dose, absorption timing, and elimination modeling. This profile describes the concentration and reference serving volume used when a full drink is added to a simulation.
1.50 oz at 40% equals about 1.00 U.S. standard drinks because one U.S. standard drink contains 0.6 fl oz ethanol. Review how these values are used in BAC simulation software or compare it against the full drink database.
Brandy - Jaques Cardin Background
Brandy - Jaques Cardin is cataloged as a Spirits / Brandy reference beverage. Brandy and cognac-style profiles represent distilled spirits made from wine or fermented fruit bases, where distillation and maturation concentrate ethanol and develop aroma compounds while the recorded ABV and serving size control BAC model inputs. The profile records a 1.5 fl oz reference serving at 40% ABV for standardized ethanol-dose documentation, drink classification, and BAC simulation review; those stored values remain the controlling inputs.
Professional Use
- Compare drink assumptions during DUI and criminal-defense case review.
- Document beverage concentration and volume used in BAC simulation reports.
- Review drinking-pattern inputs with forensic toxicology and expert-witness workflows.
- Support training examples for alcohol absorption, elimination, and retrograde extrapolation.
Standard Drink Math
A U.S. standard drink uses 0.6 fl oz of pure ethanol. This profile's 1.50 oz reference serving at 40% ABV contains 0.60 oz ethanol, equal to 1.00 standard drinks.
That ethanol dose is the starting point for BAC simulation software; consumed fraction, timing, absorption, elimination, and body-composition assumptions are modeled separately. Compare other entries in the drink database or use the related profiles below.
