The Bacchus Wine in Final Fantasy IV.
A mystical draught said to spout forth endlessly from an enchanted fount. Only consumable by knowledgeable salve-makers, it brings out the latent powers of the drinker, allowing them to exceed their normal physical capacities. As a side-effect, however, it induces obliviousness to one's surroundings and a loss of control, as if the imbiber were in a severe state of inebriation.

Etymology[]
Bacchus (also known as "Dionysus") is the Greco-Roman God of wine, vineyards, theater, and insanity. His worshipers would become intoxicated and go off on wild, crazed orgies of revelry.
In Japanese the item is called Bacchus's Sake. Sake is an alcoholic beverage of Japanese origin that is made from fermented rice, and is sometimes referred to as as a form of rice wine by English-speaking countries, although technically sake is closer to beer than wine.
