Specific Mechanical Systems created a traditional pot still, allowing craft distilleries and micro-distilleries to create flavorful and unique small-batch spirits.
Traditional Pot Stills Used in Modern
Day Micro Distilleries
There are two common
types of stills to choose from
- pot stills and continuous
column stills.
For a craft distillery, meaning a distillery
that produces fewer than 750,000 gallons
per year and is independently-owned, a
pot still is a common vessel for distillation
as its purpose is to produce smaller
volumes of spirits that pack a flavorful
punch.
The traditional pot still is a
vessel to accomplish this that
dates back to the 15th century -
mimicking the shape and
function of the 9th century
alembic.
Pot stills are widely used
across the world in the spirit
industry, particularly for thicker,
more flavorful spirits like dark
rum, whiskey, and cognac.
Using a pot still, often known
as pot distillation, is one way
to control your production on
a batch-by-batch basis.
While a pot still doesn't compare to the
efficiency of a column still, pot stills
have unique characteristics that make
them better suited for more robust
flavor profiles and a more intimate
practice of spirit production.
