New Member Here from NEOK

Post by Bkvance »

Hello from Northeast Oklahoma,

I’ve been wanting to do this for a long time. This weekend my oldest friend (We road the Bus to Basic Training 42yrs ago), spent a week here and we discussed his walk down this path and has encouraged me to do the same.

I want to make so good sipping shine like I first had about 45yrs ago.
I’m also thinking that working towards a good smooth bourbon is on this list as well.
I haven’t decided to build or purchase my first still.

I’m looking forward to learning from all of you

Keith

Welcome to HD. Making your still is by far the best way is you are able. Start your recipe for shine with UJSSM in tried and true for fastest drinking stock. Have fun.
