About the author

Christopher Yorke grew up in the hills of North Clark County in Washington State. He graduated from Washington State University with degrees in Agriculture and Economics. After a 32 year career of teaching Agriculture Science he began writing about one of his passions, distilling moonshine and other spirits. Mr. Yorke learned the process of distilling at a small craft distillery in SW Washington. At this point he has written six books about distilling. The Whiskey Distiller's Training Manual, the Moonshine Distiller's Training Manual, the Home Distilling Handbook, the Home Distilling Handbook 2nd Edition, 150 Distilling Recipes, and The Ultimate Home Distilling Handbook.

- Reviewed in the United States on July 6, 2018This is the book to get if you want to actually make whiskey yourself! This is the book I keep by my fermenting pail and still and follow the detailed instructions and record notes into copies of the pre-written forms. I have purchased and read several of the other books out there but this is the one that can successfully guide you from what to purchase or scrounge to the moment the magic liquids first drip. I was stuck on which still might work and the recommendation in this book clarified all of that. All of the items mentioned in the book are easily purchased and I got everything together in a couple of weeks. This training manual is so complete and easy to follow it almost seems like cheating.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 3, 2020Seems to have a lot of info but looks antiquated inside
- Reviewed in the United States on February 19, 2017Received the book this week, and found it to be extremely informative and exactly what I was looking for. I have studied many manuals, and by far this is the best one. I am a beginner, and the step by step procedures and recipes provided in the manual, as well as the personalized assistance, made me feel more at ease and confident as to what I was doing. Thank you, Mr. Yorke, and I look forward to many good days of distilling.
*I am an actual customer, this is not a solicited review. And thank you again.
- Reviewed in the United States on March 11, 2017Fantastic detailed book! This is exactly what I was looking for as l am planning on getting into distilling whiskey as a hobby but have never distilled previously. Includes detailed instructions for all parts of the process, items needed (including approx. cost), charts and labels that will be helpful during the process. Perfect book for a beginner. Can't wait to get started!

3.0 out of 5 stars A Good Beginners Reference
Runs through the distilling process from start to finish.
Enough information to learn the process to produce whisky at home without overwelming the beginner with
too much complication
