Whiskey is a craftable Hardmode alcohol. Upon consumption, it inflicts the Whiskey debuff, which increases the damage of all classes by 15%, but holding a weapon decreases the held weapon's class damage linearly until it reaches -15% after 10 consecutive seconds of holding the item. Holding a weapon of a different class recovers the damage boost of all other classes, being able to revert linearly from -15% to +15% in 5 seconds.

While the effects of the Whiskey debuff are mostly beneficial, it is still considered a debuff, and therefore cannot be removed by right-clicking the icon.
