A method of recovering alcohol from residues in a recovery still is outlined. A method of manufacturing pot still distilled alcoholic product, preferably whisky, comprising: (a) providing at least one pot still for pot still distillation; (b) providing a charge for the pot still provided in step (a); (c) distilling the charge in the pot still and collecting distilled product; (d) finishing the distillation at a predetermined cut point defined by the concentration of alcohol in the distillate being condensed from the pot still; (e) providing a recovery still for recovering alcohol from the residue of the charge remaining in the pot still after distillation is finished in step (d); (f) adding at least part of the residue remaining from the charge in the pot still after distillation, to the recovery still and recovering alcohol using the recovery still; (g) providing a further charge comprising at least some of the recovered alcohol; (h) distilling the further charge in a pot still and collecting the distilled product. A method or apparatus in which the pot still distillation is carried out in respect of a volatile liquid other than alcohol or an alcoholic spirit and so is applicable to other pot still distillation industries is also outlined. |
