1. Eesti Piiritus (Estonia Spirit) 96.6 %
It comes from the small Baltic state of Estonia. As in most parts of the Soviet Union the locals know how to handle their booze. It is also a very popular destination for alcohol tourists from expensive Scandinavia, especially Sweden and Finland. Estonians with their Eesti pruritus in 1938 made the Guinness Book of Records the strongest alcoholic liquor drinks. They still make booze with a decent 96.6 % alcohol.
2. Cocoroco 96%
This Bolivian booze is a little less strong than topmost but still hellish. It usually comes in a tin can, rather than a bottle and distilled from sugar cane, which makes the illusion that you might be drinking paint thinner even more real. Cocoroco is prohibited in many other countries because with an alcohol percentage of 96 it’s simply too strong.
3. Spirytus Rektyfikowany 96%
On this list, a shared second spot for Poland. Poland is a real drinking country. It is one of the strong vodka made from grain, which exactly like cocoroco reaches an alcohol 96%.
4. Everclear 95%
Now Everclear is real good old American firewater. Everclear is made from corn and reaches a respectable alcohol percentage of 95. Due to its high alcohol content and market prevalence, this has become iconic.
5. Bruichladdich X4 92%
This Scottish single malt contains no less than alcohol 92%. It has been distilled no less than four times. The brand got a lot of fame when the British national television station BBC successfully fueled a car with this stuff, as you can see in the video above.
6. Poitín (Poteen) 90%
Another one of the strongest drinks from Ireland, made from barley, potatoes, whey, or grain. The first record of poitín was from the sixth century.

9. Balkan 176 – 88%
