Alcohol is called a spirit because historically, distillation processes were believed to separate the spirit or essence of a substance. The term "spirit" in this context refers to the concentrated form of the liquid produced through distillation. Additionally, the term may also stem from alchemy and early chemistry practices where alcohol was considered to contain the spirit or essence of the original substance.
