Whoops fucked up there.....dunno why I typed that....maybe cause thats what i throw from most stripping runs and spirit runs.
It was more around the 100ml that got chucked out.
Yes it is pretty cool how it all comes across at differnt times...to start with I was thinking "This isnt gunna have enough Anise type taste'.......then the anise flavour got stronger and stronger...it just keeps changing each time ya stick ya finger under it........cinnimon and nutmeg toward the end.
I still wasnt to sure about the smell of the stuff until after I diluted it back to 50%.....didnt want to push my luck and have it go cloudy.
Diluted down it started to smell like the real McCoy..........then mixed down further with coke or another mixer it really starts to get good.
Its a neat recipe......easy to do......and a great example of whats possibe with a simple pot still.......in short an excellent learning tool.
