The Order of Liquor
If you are new to cocktails this is the order in which you would want to ease into drinks.
- Vodka
- Rum
- Brandy
- Bourbon
- Whiskey
- Scotch
- Gin
- Tequila
Find drinks you like with vodka first, then rum, and so on. Before you move onto the next level you should do a shot of the liquor itself. This will give you a real appreciation for the differences in these liquors.

I might suggest a slightly different order. Vodka is clearly the starting point, but I personally think rum and brandy would be the next steps for the beginner, since their flavors are not only fairly tame, but also mildly familiar. Scotch, Gin, and Tequila each have a fairly, uh, provocative flavor profile, so I'd save those for last.
Thanks Robert. I changed the order to something closer to your suggestion. I think you are right about Scotch, Gin, and Tequila.
I had a hard time with Gin myself.
So I changed from: Vodka, Rum, Gin, Tequila, Brandy, Scotch, Bourbon, Whiskey. To the order of liquor that is there now.
Thanks
ass!
hey this is a good list...good call on putting the tequila last.
