Poland
In Polish, "spirytus rektyfikowany" means "rectified spirit".
Spirytus is in the same category as Vodka. It is commonly understood that spirytus is distilled to the maximum purity achievable, which is slightly above 95% (190 proof), but it is labeled 95% for practical and legal reasons.
Tourists are allowed to buy and drink spirytus in Poland, but it is illegal for them to export it. Enforcement of the export restriction is fairly lax.
