from liquor enthusiasts in equal measure. The flavor profile of distilled spirits is enhanced by the length and method of storing – and the price tag tends to correlate with the length of time in the barrel. But Bryan Davis may have found a shortcut. Davis, founder of the Lost Spirits Distillery and described as “one of the super-stars of Mad Scientist Distillation” (1), has developed a reactor that mimics the aging effect – cutting the processing time by up to 20 years.</p><div class="b_clearfix"></div><div id='ad-slot-71' class="b_ad"><ga-ad code="71"></ga-ad></div><div id='ad-slot-72' class="b_ad"><ga-ad code="72"></ga-ad></div><div id='ad-slot-51' class="b_ad"><ga-ad code="51"></ga-ad></div> <div class="b_textmedia__imagewrap b_textmedia__imagewrap--above b_textmedia__imagewrap--full "><figure class="b_textmedia__figure"><picture><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_ab90d3f9d1.webp" media="(min-width: 1280px)" type="image/webp" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_6aff8b6c4b.png" media="(min-width: 1280px)" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_af0926cddb.webp" media="(min-width: 1024px)" type="image/webp" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_a74410d523.png" media="(min-width: 1024px)" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_6e72d6624b.webp" media="(min-width: 835px)" type="image/webp" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_a6c5174428.png" media="(min-width: 835px)" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_7d0c105615.webp" media="(min-width: 768px)" type="image/webp" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_55b509871e.png" media="(min-width: 768px)" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_38378ea3b4.webp" media="(min-width: 567px)" type="image/webp" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_715e28b7e9.png" media="(min-width: 567px)" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_1d3a056b5f.webp" media="(min-width: 415px)" type="image/webp" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_9908d66758.png" media="(min-width: 415px)" /><source srcset="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_ba27fdcbe3.webp" type="image/webp" /><img class="b_textmedia__image" src="/fileadmin/_processed_/6/5/csm_0516-203-main_e0839fde40.png" width="374" height="256" loading="lazy" alt="" /></picture><figcaption class="b_textmedia__figcaption"><p class="b_rte__bodytext">An offset chromatogram overlay of the Lost Spirits Colonial Inspired Rum compared against the 33 year-old control rum.

According to Davis, the chromatograms became a very useful tool at the last stage of the process for fine tuning the results: “They provided empirical evidence of the system’s efficacy in the volatile organic compound (VOC) range, but also its capability not only in building the density of semi-volatiles, but in producing a nearly identical fingerprint to 20 years in the cask (2).” </p><p class="b_rte__bodytext">Davis, a former art teacher, says he took to chemistry “like a duck to water” despite a lack of formal education in the subject. “I never actually did high school chemistry. Our partner, a PhD chemist, did a great job of giving me a quick education in everything I needed to know about organic chemistry and booze.” But when Davis needed more information, he turned  to PubMed: “I remember, for example, looking up what happens to the yeast derived ester profile of the spirit when fermentation characteristics change...” </p><p class="b_rte__bodytext">Davis’ new chemistry knowledge and existing familiarity with the alcoholic beverage industry allowed him to find a niche area in a competitive market. “We had an absinthe lab facility that did well, but the market crashed. So we decided to leverage our relationship with the distributors,” he says. “There are already a lot of craft facilities in the US where vodkas, gins and absinthes can be made overnight, but aged products are simply not there – or aren’t very good.” </p><p class="b_rte__bodytext">The developments have stirred up strong reactions – from disbelief to horror – and left some people shaken. “People initially asked if my work should be banned, if it was ‘fair’, or if I was undermining God’s will!” Davis says. The company has wisely avoided antagonizing certain market segments, taking a more tactical approach: “We haven’t done a Scotch whisky or a bourbon, and that’s no accident,” he says. “Bourbon and Scotch in particular are more religions than beverages!”</p><div class="b_clearfix"></div><div id='ad-slot-90' class="b_ad"><ga-ad code="90"></ga-ad></div> </div>  <div class="b_access__grid"> <div class="b_access__column"> <header class="b_loginregister__header b_loginregister__header--h3"> Receive content, products, events as well as relevant industry updates from The Analytical Scientist and its sponsors. </header> <div id="quick-registration"></div> <div class="b_main__column b_main__column--center"> <div class="b_message__quick-registration"> </div> <form method="post" name="registration" class="b_form" action="/techniques-tools/shaken-and-stirred?tx_txp_quickregistration%5Baction%5D=create&tx_txp_quickregistration%5Bcontroller%5D=QuickRegistration&cHash=44ee10acc586584da249111fb33cb80b#quick-registration"> <div> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[__referrer][@extension]" value="Txp" /> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[__referrer][@controller]" value="QuickRegistration" /> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[__referrer][@action]" value="show" /> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[__referrer][arguments]" value="YTowOnt90fe826eba926d8c6af15972884645d2740b4e91a" /> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[__referrer][@request]" value="{"@extension":"Txp","@controller":"QuickRegistration","@action":"show"}961af8bf435eb9a8f676a171214c28cf91999fcb" /> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[__trustedProperties]" value="{"registration":{"email":1,"password":1,"termsOfUse":1,"newsletterTopicTcs":1,"newsletterMassSpec":1,"newsletterSpectroscopy":1}}a3f19f3434d42cdd09e70a689167066e2ce3d570" /> </div> <fieldset class="b_form__fieldset"> <div class="b_form__grid"> <div class="b_form__fieldgroup b_form__fieldgroup--half"> <label for="email" class="b_form__label">Email*</label> <input class="b_form__textinput" id="email" type="email" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][email]" value="" /> </div> <div class="b_form__fieldgroup b_form__fieldgroup--half"> <label for="password" class="b_form__label">Choose a password*</label> <input class="b_form__textinput" id="password" type="password" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][password]" value="" /> </div> </div> </fieldset> <fieldset class="b_form__fieldset"> <div class="b_form__grid"> <div class="b_form__fieldgroup"> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][termsOfUse]" value="" /><input class="b_form__checkbox" id="termsofuse" type="checkbox" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][termsOfUse]" value="1" /> <label for="termsofuse" class="b_form__label b_form__label--checkbox"><span data-click="termsofuse">I have read and understand the </span> <a class="b_form__link" target="_blank" href="/privacy-notice">Privacy Notice</a> * </label> </div> </div> <strong> Stay up to date with our other newsletters and sponsors information, tailored specifically to the fields you are interested in </strong> <div class="b_form__grid"> <div class="b_form__fieldgroup"> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][newsletterTopicTcs]" value="" /><input class="b_form__checkbox" id="newsletterTopicTcs" type="checkbox" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][newsletterTopicTcs]" value="1" /> <label for="newsletterTopicTcs" class="b_form__label b_form__label--checkbox"> Receive communication from The Cannabis Scientist </label> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][newsletterMassSpec]" value="" /><input class="b_form__checkbox" id="newsletterMassSpec" type="checkbox" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][newsletterMassSpec]" value="1" /> <label for="newsletterMassSpec" class="b_form__label b_form__label--checkbox"> I want to stay up to date with the Mass Spectrometry field </label> <input type="hidden" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][newsletterSpectroscopy]" value="" /><input class="b_form__checkbox" id="newsletterSpectroscopy" type="checkbox" name="tx_txp_quickregistration[registration][newsletterSpectroscopy]" value="1" /> <label for="newsletterSpectroscopy" class="b_form__label b_form__label--checkbox"> I want to stay up to date with the Spectroscopy field </label> </div> </div> <p class="b_form__text"> When you click “Subscribe” we will email you a link, which you must click to verify the email address above and activate your subscription.
