Just proofed my first "official" batch of DWWG and ..... wooo hooo ! 160 proof ! First mash , and first real run on the 24" Monkeyshine !
Oh ! And the taste .... man , it warms your whole mouth and tastes like warm sweet butter. Absolutely fabulous !

Thanks for the heads up , but Im gettin just enough to coat the tongue for flavor. Gonna let it age up a bit and then cut it later on. But man , I can't say enough about the flavor. Just did a taste comparison against 5 times distilled vodka , and the vodka tasted like naptha cut with bleach after what come off of the stove. But I may just be a bit biased :ebiggrin:


Thanks again

Every post I make about drinking hi-octane hooch gets deleted. Just to be perfectly clear, I know why everybody says don't do it. That shit will sneak up on you, FAST.

I have some DWWG workin right now. Been a week and a half and it's still bubbling the airlock every couple seconds. I'm loving everything everybody is saying about it, I can't wait!
