español term

muscatel - muscat

español al inglés Ciencias
Does anyone have any insight into the difference (if any) of these two words? I know muscatel is associated with skid row bums and brown paper bags, but could it also be a more technical word?
I better go to the pub and research this :). Fun translation, eh?
