Re run flavoured

[Taity]

Hi
I have about 3 ltrs of spiced rum i made at 40% can i water down and re distill .and will it take the flavour out or reduce it ...air still

[Mash]

It will take the flavour out. Plenty of copper seems to help.

You may need More than one run. The AirStill is a pot still, so some flavour will come over - this is why recipes such as Odin’s gin work.

I tried removing an overpowering cumin from a gin once - it proved a complete waste of time. I’ve not tried cumin gin again!!

Try it - let us know how you get on.

Cheers

What they said.
Re-dstilling will reduce any "flavour"
You may have to repeat,or Carbon filter.
The alcohol is not lost.

Agreed. Gins are a proper bugger to clean up. An airstone and carbon filtering helps.

I read this as an flavour essence sorry.
They come out easily IME.

I guess the difference is that essences are mixed in cold and not bound as well with the alcohol.

I have never understood a distilled spiced rum.
Macerate or blend later. If you choose.
