Chucked up some heavy Algerian liqueur (6)

'chucked' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I cannot tell whether this works.

'up some heavy algerian liqueur' is the wordplay.
'up' says the letters should be written in reverse (in down clue: letters go upwards).
'some' says the answer is hidden in the clue (some parts of the word are used).
'avyalg' is hidden in the letters of 'heavy algerian liqueur'.
'avyalg' in reverse letter order is 'GLAYVA'.

Can you help me to learn more?
