Ive wondered that myself. How does one go about acquiring new make spirits to age at home aside from buying vodka, "Moonshine", or everclear? The only white dog around here is shit "Moonshine" from the liquor stores.

A combination of commercial white dog (BT White Dog, Boone County Tanner's Curse, Heaven Hill Try Box) and a local craft distilleries white dog.
