USDA FoodData Central (SR Legacy) · 174815. Alcoholic beverage, distilled, all (gin, rum, vodka, whiskey) 80 proof. Public domain. FoodData Central does not carry a Scotch-specific record; whisky's composition does not vary with grain or region once bottled at the same proof, and blended Scotch is near-universally bottled at 40% ABV, so this generic 80-proof spirit record applies unchanged.

USDA FoodData Central (SR Legacy) · 174815. Same generic 80-proof distilled-spirit record as the blended form: composition does not change with peating or region at a fixed proof. Laphroaig 10 Year, the reference bottle usually named for the peaty float this Form is for, is bottled at 40% ABV, matching the generic record exactly.
