<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Yesterday I received an email from one of our list mates in response to the articles I posted on distillation. This is what she had to say about flavorings. "According to a local liquor distributor who did research for me, distilled products cannot have anything added back into them after distillation or they would become cloudy and spoil. So, the main concern that grain may be added back into a liquor for flavor, doesn't hold water! Surely there are exceptions, but this makes sense to me." This makes sense to me, too. If anybody has more scientific information on flavorings in spirits or vinegar, please post with your source(s). Maybe we can also put this controversy to rest. Marge Johannemann Louisville, Kentucky
