Hi mate, welcome.
If your a whiskey drinker go for a pot still. The cordials they use to flavour neutral are pretty hit and miss and I think they taste fake as hell. Use one of the sugar head recipes from the tried and proven like BWKO or CFW and you'll be happy with those results.

Welcome to AD mate.
:text-+1: on what woodduck said. If you're looking to make bourbon, you're much better off with one of the cereal based washes and a pot still than flavouring neutral.
Cheers,
Prof. Green.
