Spirits production

Spirits production involves converting sugars into alcohol through fermentation and distillation. Initially, ingredients like grains, fruits, or sugarcane are fermented with yeast, which consumes sugars and produces alcohol. The liquid is then heated in a still; as it heats, alcohol vapor rises, separating it from water and other substances. This vapor is collected and condensed back into liquid form, resulting in a high-proof beverage. Different ingredients, fermentation times, and distillation methods lead to a wide variety of spirits, such as whiskey, vodka, rum, and gin, each with its unique flavor and character.
