Classic Flavourings

Still Spirits Classic Spirit Essence range represents the top essences under the Still Spirits brand. Each essence is designed to give you a spirit flavour that closely emulates the world’s finest spirits on the market!

Each pack holds twin sachets and makes up 2 x 1.125ml bottles. Both sachets will flavour 2.25 litres which is 3 x 750ml standard bottles. For a fuller flavour, you could just use 1 sachet for 1 litre. Add this to 40% ABV home distilled neutral alcohol. Rinse out any remaining flavouring from the sachet with some of the alcohol.

WHAT TYPE OF SPIRIT TO USE.

The best spirit to flavour will be a neutral one, like vodka. A higher quality vodka will not have the same harshness as a cheaper vodka. Alternatively, you can make your own neutral spirit to flavour – this will certainly be the cheapest option and also the most rewarding.

EQUIPMENT NEEDED TO DISTIL YOUR OWN SPIRIT

The equipment required to make a spirit includes basic brewing equipment, which can be found in the ‘Starter kits’ section of our website. You will also need either a Still to distil your alcohol from a spirit wash (highly recommended), or you will need a high alcohol kit. There are two choices of stills on our website, the AirStill and the T500.
