My Best Ever Koda | Apple Cider മുതൽ Distillation വരെ | Wash | Malayalam Explanation

🍎 From an apple tree problem to my Best Ever Koda… This video is a little different from my usual mixology content. Before getting into the Koda, I wanted to share a bit of my story, from working as a mixologist and in-store trainer at a large cocktail bar in the UK, training bartenders and learning hundreds of cocktails and the flavour profiles of different spirits, to also working in tree surgery. Then one day, a tree-surgery job gave me an unexpected idea… There were apple trees carrying so many apples that some of the branches were becoming overloaded and starting to break. After dealing with the trees, we ended up with a huge amount of apples — and that got me thinking: “Why not make apple cider?” 🍎 So that's where the experiment started. In this video, I talk about the cider I made, what I thought of the result, and how that eventually led me to use it as a wash for a distillation experiment. I also talk about: 🍎 The story behind the apples 🍏 My apple cider experiment 🧪 Fermented wash and distillation 🧫 What yeast needs to perform well 🍷 Yeast selection and alcohol production 🌿 How different fruits can contribute different aromas and flavours 🍺 Why beer and whisky share some of the same fundamental ingredients ❓ And the big question — what happens when you distill beer?
