Hmmm, this recipe sounds too much like the instructions for setting up a
'still. I don't think I will try it while I live in this country unless the
laws change. My Grandaddy may have been the Barbour County Moonshiner, but
my Daddy was a revenuer.
Does anyone know if there is a commercially available product similar to the
product produced by this recipe? The cinnamon would make it interesting,
