It’s a very personal choice, and alcohol is ingrained into a lot of our society. Do you drink and if so how much?

    oh that would be so neat making actual liquor! One thing that has surprised me is how much cleaner home brew is, at moderate levels it gives me very few ill effects compared to store bought alcohols even the nicer ones.

    Good luck on your baijiu!!

      A lot of commercial alcohols add stuff that … ugh. Really shouldn’t be there. Making up for lost craftsmanship when producing in bulk by chemical means.

      I drink almost exclusively from small distilleries here. Ironically, unlike the same thing being done in Canada, it’s cheaper this way. People go for brands, so the big name distilleries have a huge price premium. In the meantime the small producers are putting out stuff that’s just spiffy and keen!
