Beginning with an overview of the distilling process itself, Amii (Welcome to Wonder Land) and Barrett (The All About Nothing Podcast), alongside the Amicks, discuss the intricacies involved in converting grain mash into distilled spirits. They expand upon the fascinating etymology of the term 'spirits', linking it to the Latin word for breath, thereby underscoring the alchemical roots of distillation.
