How to make Swish.
Ok, some you repugnant cocksuckers want to know how to make swish.
And I must admit that even though I'd drunk my share of it, I wasn't
entirely sure how it was done, so I've gone and asked a couple people
around the trailer park. It's basically pretty simple. You need two things.
1. A used distillery barrel. Any kind. The "aficionados" like using
Jack Daniels barrels. But any kind of whiskey, rum, or whatever will
work. Apparently, the wood of the barrel leechs out some of the alcohol
as the aging process occurs. And the goal in making swish is to reclaim
that wasted alcohol. But where the fuck do you get a barrel? It's not as
hard as you might think. Even if you can't "find" one, you can buy one
for 50 or 60 bucks.Gotta make sure you get it corked, though... if the
barrel sits around uncorked, most of the booze will evaporate.
Now before you start freaking out about shelling out $50 , I will
remind you that (a) you're making 15 litres of high-octane hooch here,
which is like $3/liter and (b) you can sell the barrel when you're done;
people buy them for all sorts of uses. They can be rehabbed and sold
back to a distilleryor winery. Or you might even be able to sell it to
some interior decorator for more than you paid for it. 2. 15 litres of
water. Just put the water in the barrel and let it sit for a month, giving
it a little turn (a "swish") every day. 1/8 of a rotation or so. And if you're
really hardcore about it, you can drop another 5 litres of water in and do
it aging. The second batch won't be as strong as the first, but what the
fuck.I heard of one guy out in Kamloops, BC who built a still, and would
swish the barrels from his own potato screech.
I'm surprised that cocksucker has any vision left.
