Hi, I’m Tristan and I’ve been distilling for more than 12 years now. I built my first still from an old beer keg and some copper pipe, and now have more distilling hardware than I care to admit! My favorite cocktail is a Negroni.
My passion is gin, but I’ve been dabling in some whiskey making recently too.
You can check out some of my distilling articles below, or find me at my personal blog here
