What do you mean by "didn't cut it anymore?" Are you unhappy with the quality of what you've been drinking? If so, this has little to do with proof and much to do with the quality of the spirits. You can move up to something that will cut it with quality without increasing the amount of alcohol in the liquor.

What do you mean by "pure" I mean you can get 100% alcohol, that will be pure alcohol and also be a purely stupid idea.
The percentage of the booze does not improve the flavour (although with some complex spirits like whiskey I believe a slightly higher % of alcohol is desirable for some flavours) I have drunk stuff that was 80% and 90% alcohol with friends on the continent, both turned out to be really bad idea.
The 80% turned out to be for cleaning wounds, and the 90% stuff, well the next day the girls I was staying with asked us where all the nail polish remover had gone, apparently it was meant for cleaning jobs.
