Welcome. Read this before you do anything else.

Are you looking for essence recommendations or do you want to make your own whiskey, rum, etc the traditional way?

+ 1 with Chuck here,there are a great variety of drinks you can attempt from "raw ingredients" or essences,you were not clear in your question.
Anyway,welcome,and checkout the recipe section,a few gems hidden away in there,IMHO.

I will also draw your attention to the search box in the upper right. If you have a specific question, that works quite well.

If it is Scottish style whisky you are after, have a look at this:

I've heard good things about the drop that Frank makes!
