Hello, I am new
I live in Serbia, and we have very good brandys, especially slivovitz, but I like anise and fennel taste beverages like Uzo, Mastika and Absinthe, and I decide to make my own. I made still from wife's pressure cooker and start playing.

Welcome to HD!
Pressure cookers aren't the preferred pot to use, but in your neck of the woods you may have to improvise some ..Just read up on safety and stay away from any synthetics!

Thanks, I see. I have been on forum since couple months and I reading lot of topics.
Here, slivovitz is ordinary drink. Basically, it is plum (plum is sliva on serbian) brandy (twice distilled). In the countryside, each second house have own orchard and still pot and unique recipe. We have varieties of plums with a high sugar content (and up to 18%) with a lot of unique, recognizable flavor and aromas, and when they are well done its very good beverage.
Sorry for mistakes in my english.

English is not my native language, so please explain to me what you mean with "synthetics".
