190 proof alcohol, or grain alcohol, is one of the strongest alcoholic beverages, consisting of 95% ethanol and 5% water. The alcohol content is very high and that really differentiates it from other forms of beverages which are usually five and forty percent alcohol. Due to its strength, 190 proof alcohol is used in several ways, including industrially, in manufacturing medicines, and even for recreational use. Despite its strength being a positive for some aspects, it must be handled carefully since it is dangerous unless used properly.
