Why didnt you include the bit of information where the middle eastern alchemists coined the term spirit! When the video introduced the image of the distillation head it would have been a good time to simply include for those who care: Middle eastern alchemists, in search of effective medicinal elixirs, referred to the collection of the vapors of one substance to gather another was called collecting the spirit of a substance. Hence why today we call distilled alcohols spirits. and go on. You simply show the Distilling equipment, skip that part, and then go on to call them spirits without context! So funny how alchemists get written out of history.

You speak about history of alcohol and fail to mention about Georgia (country? Georgia is a country where wine was first made in circa 6000 BCE

3: 22 So the people who were prohibited from drinking alcohol by religion created the process of distillation, that makes sense!

What a scorn on society. If only it had never been consumed except for preservation, the world would be such a better place.
