# Searching for Spirits

Search tens of thousands of spirits by name, country, style, or flavor.

Distiller's search covers a database of tens of thousands of unique spirits. You can search whether you're logged in or not, on the website or in the mobile app.

You can search by **spirit name**, **country**, and **spirit style**. Distiller Pro members can also search by **flavor** (see [**Search & Filtering by Flavor**](https://cdeorbvtb.gleap.help/en/articles/14-what-s-included-with-distiller-pro) in the [**Distiller Pro**](https://cdeorbvtb.gleap.help/en/articles/14-what-s-included-with-distiller-pro) section).

## Searching in the mobile app

When you open the Distiller app, you land on the Search screen.

1.  Tap the search bar and start typing a spirit name, country, or style.
    
2.  Select a result from the quick suggestions, or tap **See All** to view detailed results with images and scores.
    
3.  Not sure what you're looking for? Tap a spirit type on the Search screen, then a style, to browse popular spirits in that category.
    

The Search screen also shows your **Recently Viewed** spirits (when you're logged in), so you can easily get back to a bottle you were reading about. Swipe through the most recent few, or tap **View All** to see your last ten.

## Searching on Distiller.com
