Wine is also sometimes not vegan due to the fining process. As with beer, wine will naturally go through the fining process and achieve the same clear finish.

But producers sometimes speed up the process with fining agents, like albumin which is derived from egg whites. Although these agents are removed from the final product, there will still be traces absorbed into the wine. Did you know, you can order wine right from the Viva!

But not all is lost, you can still have flavoured cider with Old Mout and many mainstream brands such as Thatchers and Stowford Press. So no need to worry about hidden fining agents. This comes down to the production process.

Spirits are distilled by taking a grain or sugar and fermenting it to make alcohol. It is then distilled to remove excess water and create a much stronger drink. So no fining agent needed! But there is a type of alcohol called Mezcal, made from the agave plant which is bottled with a moth larvae which lives on agave plants, allegedly to improve the taste — yuck!
