This was by far the weirdest distillation I’ve done from a process perspective. I’m a fairly green distiller but usually I can tell when something is hearts or heads or tails but this? Strong Cheeto flavor the whole way through. I’ve never seen color come off a still but it came out with a yellow tint the entire time. Split it into two batches, one just straight on its own and one sitting on a handful of dehydrated Carolina reaper peppers and some other hot peppers. Clocking in at 48% abv. What’s it taste like you might wonder? Wash all the powder off of a Cheeto and suck on it for 5 minutes. After that take a shot of vodka. I think the flavor will be almost dead on to what this tastes like. Admittedly, I poured 750 mL down the drain, I can’t justify using another jar to store a meme. Over all, 10/10 would science again.
I respect your ingenuity and creativity. Also, I hate you.
Hey now no need for hate, let’s sit down with a nice glass of flamin hot eldrich horror and hash out our differences lol. But don’t worry, it’s only going to get worse from here, I don’t know what’s worse than fermenting and distilling Cheetos but by god I’ll find something even worse than this.
