Yep. Latin: Aquavit, roughly translated by me as "water of life".

Never forget the old peppers in the cooking sherry. My father tells me
that the 'native' Qld birdseye (a variety of tepin, I think) fits well
in a bottle of Worcestershire sauce, and complements the flavour really
well. It also serves as a wake up for the (*really* non-CH) truck
drivers he shares his house with! Keep meaning to try it, waiting for my
Baileys to grow...
