Did you guys catch the Distilleries 2 episode? Pretty neat stuff.
I only have to do this until the trade embargo against Cuba is lifted!

Yeah, it's a great show....I unfortunately have only been able to watch you tube versions though. I've never seen advertised down here, it's gotta be either discovery or history channel I'd assume.

Hookline, it's been a while, but yeah, that's the series I was talking about. I didn't realize there were like 5 episodes, going to have to go looking for all of them now. :D

Thanks Hook. I have been looking for these. Now I have all 5 downloaded on my system, and can watch them whenever I have time.

Thanks, H.

The 5 parts mentioned here all seem to make up 1 episode. I know there were 2 "1-hour" episodes about distilleries.

There is also an episode about sugar that contains some interesting info about sugar cane, molasses, and rum.

There are 2 different hour long episodes. The first is the one I posted above,
