New to the forum, from the PNW !

Post by Mudflats »

Hello all.been distilling for a while but I am looking for the comraderie & always after wisdom of others. I am in the PNW...and have celiac disease so I cannot do any beers, sadly I must partake of distilled spirits only !
I look forward to learning, and talking to those experienced in what I am doing..thanks !
