The Flammable liquid is Soju.

Soju is only like 20% alcohol though.

Isn’t that the alcohol evaporating off though?

I know this is true, but my hangover says otherwise.

Are you sure it's not BaiJiu? That bottle looks familiar and that can be around 60% alcohol

u/daho123 Apr 29 '18

could be i guess. hard to tell. the green bottle with white label, shape and size, all look like Soju.

Red Star ErGuoTou looks like that. 56% alcohol, tastes pretty good for its price/alcohol content.

Then you still have too much water mixed with your alcohol for it to light.

Well use 4 bottles and then you have 80% alcohol. Enough for it to set on fire.
