distil, distiller, still, malt, germinate

"Man was born to live with his fellow human beings. Separate him, isolate him, his character will go bad, a thousand ridiculous affects will invade his heart, extravagant thoughts will germinate in his brain, like thorns in an uncultivated land."
--Suzanne Simon from MEMOIRS OF A NUN "La Religieuse" (1796) by Denis Diderot

Today’s rain is tomorrow’s whisky, goes the old Scottish proverb. But after a remarkable boom in the value of single malts in recent years, economic factors may now point to stormier days ahead.



Distillers look beyond sales fall

Germination is the process by which a plant grows from a seed. The most common example of germination is the sprouting of a seedling from a seed of an angiosperm or gymnosperm. In addition, the growth of a sporeling from a spore, such as the growth of hyphae from fungal spores, is also germination.
