Re: Is my moon shine safe ?

dan_buddy, my question for you is what do you think might make your spirits unsafe to drink...??? If the still was built with proper materials, was cleaned adequately, you wash wasn't unusual and fermented to dry, and you followed proper distillation protocols, there should be no reason to worry......
