Essences
An essence turns a clean neutral spirit into something with a name. The spirit underneath still decides the quality — a rushed wash and a lazy cut cannot be flavoured into a good whisky.

New to washing, fermenting and filtering?
The order matters more than the gear: a clean ferment, a patient cut, then carbon. Ask us where your wash is losing its flavour.
You must be 18 or over to purchase distilling equipment. It is an offence to distil spirits in Australia without a licence from the ATO.
