I am actually a liquor producer (www.jaddess.com) and have not come across a liquor making process that uses lime.
On the other hand there is a tanning process that uses liming liquor (see http://www.freepatentsonline.com/4310328.html) and it is also part of the sugar refining process.
Are you sure the material you are translating is about making a beverage?

Asker: Could this be applicable to the manufacture of a beverage?

Asker: The second link - yuck, I'm never touching an unknown alcoholic drink. and yes the material is a manual from a very well known food manufacturer in Israel and deals with the production process of a beverage distilled from raw liquor

Explanation:
One of the definitions of "Lime" is
"1. A spiny evergreen shrub or tree (Citrus aurantifolia), native to Asia and having leatherly leaves, fragrant white flowers and edible fruit.
2. The egg-shaped fruit of this plant, having a green rind and acid juice used as flavoring."
