"80 proof" indicates that a distilled spirit contains 40% alcohol by volume (ABV). The proof system is typically used in the United States, where the proof value is double the percentage of alcohol. Therefore, a spirit labeled as 80 proof has a moderate alcohol content, making it a common strength for many liquors. In this case, "40 alcohol" refers to the same 40% ABV.
