Many years back the ex-wife and I purchased an Essencia express still, we used it happily, and after a split, it went to storage. I've dusted it off and given her a look over (the still, not the ex-wife) and to a degree, it has me interested all over again. One thing that always bothered me was the 'odd' notes in the drink we never managed to shift. I thought ah ha - with no one to say they want it now now now! I can try diluting the distillate and running again to see if it helps. That said the need for 'essences' with it has always bothered me, so I went looking for 'real recipes' some searching found me a few 'traditional style' recipes and eventually lead me here. Now other than the crazy wealth of knowledge I seem to have stumbled into, you all seem to have a tremendous sense of humour. I'm both awestruck, and entertained. I'm very happy to be here!
