Related to sacred things, like whiskey? (9)
I believe the answer is:
spiritual
'related' is the definition.
Both the definition and answer are adjectives. Maybe there's a link between them I don't understand?
I cannot understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for spiritual that I've seen before include "Of things of the soul" , "Relating to the soul rather than the body" , "Sacred - Black American religious song" , "Relating to religion" , "Relating to the holy or divine" .)
