Aldebaran whiskey is a very potent, very green alcoholic beverage from Aldebaran. It was a favorite of Guinan, and she once received a bottle as a gift from Jean-Luc Picard. She later kept it behind the bar in Ten Forward aboard the USS Enterprise-D. It was discovered there by Data and Montgomery Scott in 2369. (TNG: "Relics")
Quark also kept an ample supply of Aldebaran whiskey in his bar on Deep Space 9. (DS9: "Prophet Motive", "Explorers", "Distant Voices")
Whiskey from Aldebaran's northern continent was considered to be the best, and 2359 was an excellent vintage. (TNG novelization: Relics)
