It does not suit advanced bartenders or connoisseurs seeking deep single-distillery dives, rare bottling notes, or complex craft cocktail recipes. Instead, it targets absolute beginners who want a quick, reliable reference to the major categories of alcohol without getting bogged down in esoteric jargon. Casual drinkers will appreciate its accessibility, while seasoned mixologists will likely find the scope too basic for their needs.
