Recipe distilling kits group the flavouring and selected finishing ingredients needed to create a particular spirit style. They are useful when you want a coordinated recipe without choosing the essence, oak and finishing components individually, but they do not normally replace the neutral spirit or the equipment required to produce it.
Using a recipe distilling kit
- Choose the finished style: The in-stock Still Spirits Batch 89 Reserve Gold Rum Kit combines its rum flavouring, oak and finishing ingredients into one recipe.
- Compare individual flavours: If you prefer to select only an essence, explore the wider rum essence and bourbon essence ranges.
- Prepare a suitable base: Start with the quantity and strength of neutral spirit specified by the kit. Our spirit filtering systems can help polish an appropriate neutral base before flavouring.
- Allow time to finish: Follow the kit sequence for adding flavouring, oak and other components, then rest the spirit for the recommended period. For separate ageing choices, see our oak chips and barrel chunks.
Read the individual kit contents and instructions before starting, as batch size, alcohol strength and ageing time vary between recipes. Check current availability when planning a repeat batch because some recipe kits are limited releases.
