Distillation
The magical distillation process allows us to take the low-proof grain wine and turn it into a high-proof spirit. When heated, the alcohol turns to vapour before the water. This vapour is sent up a column and when it hits the cold sides, just like your cold windows in the wintertime, it condenses, collecting nearly pure alcohol.
From this, we select only the best portion--the heart of the run--to be further processed. This cannot be automated, and requires someone to take a little taste. If we taste the funk, we throw it out. That's why New Deal is so pure and sippable.
