The taste is VERY different. The alcohol percentage is different also depending on what you buy of the liquor.
It signifies the "strength" of the liquor, and can give you an estimate of how much alcohol is in the drink by percentage. For example, if you have a 1.5oz of a 40% ABV spirit, 0.6oz is pure alcohol.
The answer varies in each different liquor, and should be listed on the bottle as "proof". The "Proof" is twice the alcohol percentage, so 40 proof is 20% alcohol, 180 proof is 90% alcohol.
In the United States, the "proof" descriptor for a bottle of liquor is defined as twice the percentage of alcohol by volume. Thus, a bottle labeled as "100 proof" will consist of 50% alcohol-content.
How much alcohol (liquor).
Very low, less than 5%.
Double the percent alcohol. 40% alc is 80 proof. 200 proof is pure alc.
"Alcoholic proof is a measure of how much alcohol (i.e., ethanol) is contained in an alcoholic beverage. The measure is commonly used in the United States, where it is defined as twice the percentage of alcohol by volume."Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcoholic_proof
It is the percentage of alcohol in an alcoholic beverage, expressed volumetrically. If you have a 1-liter bottle of liquor whose ABV is 40 percent, the bottle contains 400 ml of pure ethanol.
