WHAT DOES FUSEL OIL MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Fusel alcohol

Fusel alcohols, also sometimes called fusel oils, or potato oil in Europe, are a mixture of several alcohols produced as a by-product of alcoholic fermentation. The word Fusel is German for "bad liquor". Whether fusel alcohol contributes or not to hangover symptoms is a matter of scientific debate. A Japanese study in 2003 concluded, "The fusel oil in whiskey had no effect on the ethanol-induced emetic response" in Suncus murinus. Additionally, consumption of fusel oils with ethanol suppressed subjects' subsequent taste aversion to alcohol, which suggested subjects' hangover symptoms were lessened said the journal.
