Good book for easy reading and learning from
I ordered this to surprise my boyfriend and he really appreciated it. He’s into making mead, so I figured he’d love to try new stuff too.
I ordered to go with my old moonshine jugs
My son has been interested in the home distilling process for a few months now. I found this book, and gave it to him as a Christmas gift. Little did i know that he had already just purchased the book, but in a bound edition. He loved the idea of a "lay it flat" book, kept my gift and gave hi book to a good friend.
Thank you!
Very informative, a real joy to read.
