Perhaps when I’m living in a remote finca in Spain, I’ll try my hand at distillation… or probably not. Either way, I’m happy to have this amazing reference on my shelf.

Getting some nice copper from Portugal will be cheaper for you when you’re in Spain that it has been for some folks back in the States!
It’s the “probably” part of that sentence that should make you hang on to that book, Jen!:)
Even having an understanding of the process will go a long way and certainly will earn you great respect.
I think rural Spain would be the testing ground for me if I were to try my hand at the recipes in here, but at the very least, I’m happy to keep learning.
