re distilling flavoured spirits

Post by cammy_girl »

Hi there. I was wondering what the likely outcome of putting already flavoured spirits back thru a still. I have quite a few liqueurs that I made to try out, and are not my cup of tea. I thought I'd try putting back thru the still. Would that strip the flavors to make neutral spirit, or would it just fail miserably. TIA

It would work if you have a reflux still, a pot still would carry over some flavour unless you did multiple runs.
Make sure everything is watered down below 40% for safety.
