OLD
RYE
WHISKEY.
Rectified
whiskey,
thirty-two
gallons
;
tincture
of
grains
of
paradise,
three
quarts
;
decoction
of
strong
tea,
two
quarts
;.
water,
seven
quarts;
make
a
pint
of
common
wheat
flour
into
a
smooth
paste
with
water,
add
this
to
the barrel
;
then
add
ten
drops
oil
of
wintergreen,
dissolved
in
two
ounces
of
alcohol.
This
whiskey
should
have
but
a
slight
color,
partaking
of
a
reddish
derived
from
sanders
wood.
The
most
convenient
mode
of
preparing
the
tinc-
ture
of
sanders
wood
is
to
infuse
the
wood
in
a pul
verised
state
in clear
whiskey*
if
the tincture
should
appear
heavy
or
cloudy,
it
will
have
to
be
filtered
through
sand
;
but
if
the
sanders
wood
contains
no
impurities,
and
the
spirit
that
is
used
for
digesting
it
is
bright
and
clean,
the
cloudiness
alluded
to
will
be
prevented.
The
burnt
sugar should
be
strained
before
using.
