Manufacture of Liquors and Preserves - Translated from the French

This vintage book contains a comprehensive manual on the manufacture of liquors and preserves. Profusely illustrated and highly detailed, this volume is recommended for those with an interest in the history and development of the alcoholics drinks industry, and would make for a fantastic addition to collections of related literature. Contents include: "Liquors", "Alcohol", "Distillation", "Distillation of Wine", "Egrot's Stationary Still", "Purification of Alcohol", "Rectification of Alcohol", "Brandy from Wine", "Fruit Brandies", "Rum and Tafia", "Brandy from Grain", "The Natural Brandies", "Artificial Brandies", "The Plant of the Distiller", et cetera. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. We are republishing this volume now in an affordable, high-quality edition complete with a specially commissioned new introduction on cocktail and beverage making.
