Alcohols and caramel

Colouring and enhancing shades of whiskey, cognac, liquor and other spirits

When aged in barrels, spirits don't always have the same colour. Therefore, caramel colours are used to standardize and enhance the brown shades of spirits. Burnt sugars can also bring flavour as well as colour.
