For drivin or for sippin, it all starts out as the same vodka out of the
still. One goes to the gasoline blender, the other into an oak barrel.



There's a micro distillery start up in this local, word is that it's
heavly regulated.

Their process is vastly different than a fuel plant. An
internal combustion engine doesn't mind nastys like aldehydes
and the higher alcohols, but I sure do. Oh I suppose one could
consider the fuel grade as a stripper batch and rerun it.
and I'm sure someone will do just that. ED
