Book Description
"Distillers Handy Kitchen Guide" gives the reader a great look into a part of American history. It looks at the process of making moonshine and gives it a modern twist. Suffice it to say that though the process of making moonshine is illegal, it is still practiced by many. This book provides a definition of what moonshine is and gives the reader an overview on how various types of moonshine are prepared, including the dangers. Though it is a pretty rudimentary process to prepare the moonshine, certain tools are required in order to begin the cooking process. Great care also has to be taken while distilling, as the product is highly flammable and pretty unstable in this raw form. All of this and more is outlined within the Distillers Handy Kitchen Guide. By the time you've finished reading you will have learned how to create moonshine, vodka and whiskey like a southern pro. All the necessary information is here, including all the tools needed to start a distillery. Plus it evens outlines the process in it's entirety with some extra recipes on how to create different types of moonshine. The information flows nicely and can easily be understood by all. The author has phrased things in such a way that even a person with no prior knowledge of moonshine will be able create their own distillery. Or if the letter of the law is followed, learn a small part of what transpired and continues to transpire within the American heartland.

Distilling the South

Pages : 309

Book Description
Intrepid Kathleen Purvis traveled extensively throughout the South to create this first-ever guide to the region's burgeoning craft-liquor movement, capturing her journey in the creation of six original Liquor Trails. As fascinating as the craft itself are the distillers' experiences and backstories. Purvis chronicles them with verve and insight, bringing her knowledge of southern foodways and traditions to bear on the flourishing of the distiller's art. She shows how new entrepreneurs, part of the all-American food and drink renaissance, are positioning themselves to find both the inspiration and land ranging from West Virginia to Louisiana for their farm- or farm-ingredients-based distilleries. They are creating new and sought-after bourbons, whiskies, rums, gins, and much more. Their cordials are flavored with pumpkins, raspberries, peaches, and other local products; not long ago, a West Virginian's black walnut liqueur won the prize for the best nut cordial at the San Francisco World Spirits Competition. Driven by legacy and passion, today's distillers are creating a new southern tradition--one that you can now explore with an inimitable writer. Each Liquor Trail covers one or several states and features particularly worthy distilleries that Purvis has personally selected. The trails also feature maps, a complete listing of distilleries in each territory, on-site photographs, and some dynamite drink recipes direct from the distillers.
