Best Answer

Consumers need choices. If you eat Ritz crackers every day of your life, eventually you might want to try a Saltine. Many of these "Generic" brands are not generic at all. As a matter of fact, some of these are far better that the "Category Identifiers that you are more familiar with. Take Irish Cream Liquor as an example. What's the first brand that you think of? Probably Bailey's (R). Saint Brendans Irish Cream is just as good, if not better for less than half of the price! The difference is that Bailey's spends a ton of money in advertising. Have you ever seen a Bailey's commercial during the holidays? Did you know that a 30 second spot costs around $2 million? Someone has to pay for that and it is almost always the consumer.

What is proprietary yeast?

Proprietary yeast is yeast that has been manufactured specifically for a brewery, or has been originated by the brewery itself.A significant amount of flavor is produced directly from the yeast's fermentation activities, and having a strain of yeast unique to a brewery gives it the advantage of distinguishing its beers from competitors using similar formulas and yeast strains easily available to anyone.An example of a proprietary yeast is by the Rogue Ales Brewery in Newport, Oregon. They brew a German Maibock style ale named Rogue Dead Guy Ale using their proprietary Pacman yeast.

When producing liquers how do you extract the flavors from fruits and herbs that are used in liqueurs?

There are basically two ways of extracting flavors: # Cold Method # Hot Method Which one of the two methods used depends on the source of the flavor and the flavor desired. Fruit flavors use the cold method, and plant like items ex. peels, flowers, seeds, barks etc. use the hot method. TExtracting with the cold method is almost like the process used in order to make tea. Crushed fruit is steeped in an alcohol base and is allowed to absorb the flavor of the fruit. It is best to use the cold method when the item used in flavoring would be damaged by heat. The cold method takes a long time to extract flavor but, if heat were used to speed up the process it can ruin the flavor; often giving a burnt flavor. Once the desired flavor is achieve the liquor is filterd from the fruit and a sweetening agent is used. Hot extraction
