Spirits are distilled alcohol, prepared in an [[Alembic]] from [[wine]] or [[beer]. There are several different varieties of spirits, as well as different purity levels.

 == Classification of Spirits ==
-There are nine types of spirits: '''Rock, Wood, Worm, Grain, Grass, Fruit, Vegetable, Mineral,''' and '''Fish'''.  (These are listed, from lowest to highest, by the heat level in an Alembic needed to produce that spirit.)
+There are ten types of spirits: '''Rock, Wood, Worm, Grain, Grass, Fruit, Vegetable, Mineral, Fish''', and '''Grey'''. The type corresponds to the temperature range at which it is extracted from alcohol in an Alembic, and the temperature at which it burns when used to make [[Essence]]s. Rock Spirits have the lowest temperature, and Grey Spirits the highest (although Grey Spirits can't be extracted from an Alembic by type; only by quality).
-Spirits are then further categorized by purity level, with the most pure referred to as '''Spirits of Ra''', followed by '''Spirits of Life, Air, Fire, Water,''' and '''Earth'''.  Thus, for example, a request for "Worm Spirits of Fire or better" is fulfillable by Worm Spirits of Fire, Air, Life, or Ra.
+Spirits are then further categorized by purity level, with the most pure referred to as '''Spirits of Ra''', followed by '''Spirits of Life, Air, Fire, Water,''' and '''Earth'''. Spirits below Earth quality are classified as '''Grey Spirits'''. Thus, for example, a request for "Worm Spirits of Fire or better" is fulfillable by Worm Spirits of Fire, Air, Life, or Ra.

+Fruit and Grass spirits can be made by carefully mixing the top end of the low-temperature (tannin) wine range with the bottom end of the high-temperature (sugar) wine range. The spirits will most likely be of Earth quality, although spirits of Water may be possible under ideal circumstances (Fruit Spirits of Water have been observed).
 * '''Note from [[User:Hekatef|Hekatef]]:''' Fruit Spirits of Earth are possible, through patient distilling of beer and wine simultaneously.  I did it by taking 1 unit of Grain Spirits from beer, then adding wine and carefully distilling from the Vegetable range.  This yields Grey Spirits at first, but as more Vegetable Spirits are added to the mix, the purity improves again.  It took a lot of time, a few tries and several wines, but I was able to distill Fruit Spirits of Earth from Vegetable and a little bit of Grain.  Don't know yet whether Grass Spirits can be synthesized in a similar fashion, but I'll update if I am successful.
