1
00:00:05,767 --> 00:00:09,200
[narrator] This time on
Master Distiller Tournament.
2
00:00:09,266 --> 00:00:10,567
You monsters.
3
00:00:10,567 --> 00:00:14,467
[narrator] It's the legal
versus outlaw showdown finale.
4
00:00:14,467 --> 00:00:16,066
We gonna make
something great.
5
00:00:16,066 --> 00:00:17,467
[narrator] Winner take all.
6
00:00:17,467 --> 00:00:18,767
[Mark] Go, Mykala!
7
00:00:18,767 --> 00:00:20,500
Come on, you're not
gonna let her beat you!
8
00:00:20,567 --> 00:00:21,667
Come on, keep winning!
9
00:00:21,667 --> 00:00:24,467
[narrator] Kentucky outlaw
Kelley Tennille.
10
00:00:24,467 --> 00:00:26,367
[Kelley] This works so good!
11
00:00:26,367 --> 00:00:28,000
10 out of 10, Kelley approved.
12
00:00:28,066 --> 00:00:32,000
[narrator] And Oregon legal
distiller Mykala Stinson.
13
00:00:32,000 --> 00:00:33,166
I think it'll be pretty good.
14
00:00:33,166 --> 00:00:34,867
[narrator]
...in a high difficulty
15
00:00:34,867 --> 00:00:36,100
distilling challenge.
16
00:00:36,166 --> 00:00:37,000
[exclaims]
17
00:00:37,000 --> 00:00:38,266
[narrator] Grappa.
18
00:00:38,266 --> 00:00:39,567
So, what if I dropped
one of these?
19
00:00:39,567 --> 00:00:41,667
-[laughing]
-Oh... my gosh.
20
00:00:41,667 --> 00:00:44,367
[narrator] To determine,
once and for all,
21
00:00:44,367 --> 00:00:47,000
which side of the law
will prevail.
22
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:48,100
That's a lot of...
23
00:00:48,100 --> 00:00:49,333
That's gonna win it.
24
00:00:49,333 --> 00:00:51,100
[Digger] You know, we knew
it was gonna be tough.
25
00:00:51,100 --> 00:00:53,166
But we didn't know
how tough it was gonna be.
26
00:00:59,200 --> 00:01:00,467
Hi, guys. Welcome back.
27
00:01:00,467 --> 00:01:02,667
Only two of you
left standing.
28
00:01:02,667 --> 00:01:04,867
Outlaw versus legal.
29
00:01:04,867 --> 00:01:07,500
At the end of these toughest
of all challenges,
30
00:01:07,567 --> 00:01:09,266
one of y'all will be named
31
00:01:09,266 --> 00:01:11,600
Master Distiller Tournament
champion.
32
00:01:12,166 --> 00:01:13,700
Kelley, Mykala.
33
00:01:13,767 --> 00:01:16,066
You won all
your respective fights.
34
00:01:16,066 --> 00:01:18,967
Kelley, you beat out
all the other outlaws.
35
00:01:18,967 --> 00:01:20,066
And Mykala,
36
00:01:20,066 --> 00:01:22,467
you beat out all
the other legal distillers.
37
00:01:22,467 --> 00:01:23,500
[Mark] We've been
really impressed
38
00:01:23,567 --> 00:01:25,300
at how hard you two
have worked
39
00:01:25,367 --> 00:01:28,367
since your last time here
on this competition.
40
00:01:28,367 --> 00:01:30,266
You're both more confident,
41
00:01:30,266 --> 00:01:31,300
more skilled,
42
00:01:31,367 --> 00:01:33,667
and we can't tell you
how moved we are
43
00:01:33,667 --> 00:01:35,100
to witness your growth.
44
00:01:35,166 --> 00:01:36,266
[Digger] All right, guys.
45
00:01:36,266 --> 00:01:38,100
What's next is
you're gonna bring us
46
00:01:38,166 --> 00:01:40,100
your version of grappa.
47
00:01:40,166 --> 00:01:42,300
Now, Mark and myself
both know exactly
48
00:01:42,367 --> 00:01:46,600
how tough it is to get
the fermentation right
on the grappa mash.
49
00:01:46,667 --> 00:01:48,867
This stuff is fermented,
I guarantee it.
50
00:01:48,867 --> 00:01:50,667
That definitely needs release,
look at that.
51
00:01:52,500 --> 00:01:54,100
-[air hisses out]
-[exclaims] God Almighty!
52
00:01:54,400 --> 00:01:55,266
[laughs]
53
00:01:56,300 --> 00:01:57,567
Oh, that'll knock
your head off.
54
00:01:58,900 --> 00:01:59,800
[whistles and coughs]
55
00:01:59,867 --> 00:02:00,867
Yeah, boy.
56
00:02:00,867 --> 00:02:02,600
It's fermented, baby.
57
00:02:02,667 --> 00:02:04,667
You know, wild yeast
land on these grapes
58
00:02:04,667 --> 00:02:05,767
and it's caused them
to ferment,
59
00:02:05,767 --> 00:02:07,266
and they're fermenting hard.
60
00:02:07,266 --> 00:02:08,400
So we've got to move fast.
61
00:02:08,467 --> 00:02:10,700
Add more water,
more sugar to it.
62
00:02:10,767 --> 00:02:12,667
We won't know
if it's really grappa
63
00:02:12,667 --> 00:02:14,500
or grappa moonshine.
64
00:02:14,567 --> 00:02:15,767
[Digger] I like
hillbilly grappa.
65
00:02:15,767 --> 00:02:17,467
We is hillbillies, you know.
66
00:02:17,467 --> 00:02:18,700
[Mark] Thank the Lord.
67
00:02:20,367 --> 00:02:22,000
Grappa is the moonshine
of Italy.
68
00:02:22,066 --> 00:02:24,667
Made both in distilleries
and in the back woods.
69
00:02:24,667 --> 00:02:26,200
And it's kinda tricky.
70
00:02:26,266 --> 00:02:27,667
But this is a opportunity
71
00:02:27,667 --> 00:02:29,166
for you to show off
your skills.
72
00:02:29,166 --> 00:02:31,367
You both need to make sure
you dial in your mash
73
00:02:31,367 --> 00:02:33,500
because at the end
of your fermentation,
74
00:02:33,567 --> 00:02:36,667
we'll be checking
the potential ABV.
75
00:02:36,667 --> 00:02:39,467
[Mark] Whoever comes up
with the highest ABV
76
00:02:39,467 --> 00:02:42,000
will get an advantage
in the next challenge.
77
00:02:42,066 --> 00:02:44,066
We're not gonna tell you
what it is,
78
00:02:44,066 --> 00:02:46,000
but trust me, guys,
you're gonna want it.
79
00:02:46,600 --> 00:02:47,734
Aight.
80
00:02:47,734 --> 00:02:50,200
Y'all are gonna head out
with Tim to build your mash.
81
00:02:50,266 --> 00:02:52,867
While Digger and I
set up your next challenge.
82
00:02:52,867 --> 00:02:53,900
Good luck to you.
83
00:03:03,367 --> 00:03:04,533
[Tim] Aight, guys.
84
00:03:04,567 --> 00:03:06,467
If you're a legal distillery,
you may call it grappa.
85
00:03:06,467 --> 00:03:07,567
If you're outlaw,
86
00:03:07,567 --> 00:03:09,300
you may call it
grape brandy.
87
00:03:09,367 --> 00:03:11,400
Whatever it is, you only got
a hour to make it.
88
00:03:11,467 --> 00:03:13,200
So get all
your ingredients ready,
89
00:03:13,266 --> 00:03:16,300
get to smashing grapes,
smooshing grapes.
90
00:03:16,367 --> 00:03:17,400
We gonna make
something great.
91
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,200
Your time starts now.
92
00:03:25,266 --> 00:03:26,367
[Kelley] Burn off
my eyebrows.
93
00:03:26,367 --> 00:03:27,266
[Mykala laughs]
94
00:03:27,266 --> 00:03:28,266
My name is Kelley Tennille.
95
00:03:28,266 --> 00:03:29,266
I'm 35 years old,
96
00:03:29,266 --> 00:03:30,967
and I live in Clark County,
Kentucky.
97
00:03:32,000 --> 00:03:34,467
Everything I start,
starts in this kitchen.
98
00:03:34,467 --> 00:03:36,100
Like, this is where
the magic happens.
99
00:03:36,967 --> 00:03:38,166
My favorite part
about distilling
100
00:03:38,166 --> 00:03:40,000
is that it's alchemy.
101
00:03:40,000 --> 00:03:42,200
And that I'm taking a grain
102
00:03:42,266 --> 00:03:45,166
and moving it from one
alchemical form to another.
103
00:03:45,166 --> 00:03:47,667
Are you ready?
Are you gonna help me?
104
00:03:47,667 --> 00:03:50,467
I mean, you'll notice
that there's herbs
hanging everywhere.
105
00:03:50,467 --> 00:03:53,700
I put these into my brandies
and into my 'shines.
106
00:03:53,767 --> 00:03:56,467
And then, if somebody
wants to buy a little bit
of liquor from me,
107
00:03:56,467 --> 00:03:57,367
I'll sell it to him.
108
00:03:58,467 --> 00:04:00,300
As outlaws, for the most part,
109
00:04:00,367 --> 00:04:02,700
we get to develop
our own recipes,
110
00:04:02,767 --> 00:04:04,066
perfect our own recipes.
111
00:04:04,066 --> 00:04:05,367
And we don't have to
answer to anyone.
112
00:04:06,166 --> 00:04:07,867
A lot of my distillation,
113
00:04:07,867 --> 00:04:10,567
especially when I wanna do
small experimental batches,
114
00:04:10,567 --> 00:04:12,567
happens right here
in my kitchen
115
00:04:12,567 --> 00:04:14,100
directly under people's noses.
116
00:04:15,500 --> 00:04:16,767
Even though I'm exhausted,
117
00:04:17,500 --> 00:04:18,767
I want this.
118
00:04:18,767 --> 00:04:21,066
And I wanna do something good
with this once I win.
119
00:04:23,266 --> 00:04:24,667
[groans]
120
00:04:24,667 --> 00:04:26,200
[Mykala] May I get a hand?
121
00:04:26,266 --> 00:04:27,200
Yeah, what do you need, honey?
122
00:04:27,200 --> 00:04:29,200
Uh, I just wanna
put some water in here.
123
00:04:29,667 --> 00:04:30,600
Yeah.
124
00:04:32,400 --> 00:04:33,400
Oh, beautiful.
125
00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:35,367
I'm Mykala Stinson.
126
00:04:35,367 --> 00:04:36,367
I'm 34 years old,
127
00:04:36,367 --> 00:04:38,467
and I'm from Portland, Oregon.
128
00:04:38,467 --> 00:04:41,467
Distilling is more
than just a job.
129
00:04:41,467 --> 00:04:43,000
It is a passion.
130
00:04:43,066 --> 00:04:45,467
I really like making
things for people,
131
00:04:45,467 --> 00:04:46,967
seeing them enjoy
what I made.
132
00:04:47,867 --> 00:04:48,734
It feels good
133
00:04:48,734 --> 00:04:50,467
when someone
tries my spirits
134
00:04:50,467 --> 00:04:52,300
and they're like, "Wow!"
135
00:04:53,266 --> 00:04:54,567
Winning Master Distiller
136
00:04:54,567 --> 00:04:57,800
for me would in part
be about redemption.
137
00:04:59,200 --> 00:05:01,600
I feel like I've grown
a lot as a distiller
138
00:05:01,667 --> 00:05:03,967
and I'm glad to be able
to show that,
139
00:05:03,967 --> 00:05:05,867
not just with how well
I've been doing,
140
00:05:05,867 --> 00:05:08,166
but my creativity
and problem-solving.
141
00:05:10,266 --> 00:05:12,100
If this works
the way it sounds
142
00:05:12,100 --> 00:05:13,166
like it's going to
in my head,
143
00:05:13,166 --> 00:05:14,467
I'll be okay, but we'll see.
144
00:05:14,467 --> 00:05:15,767
[laughs]
145
00:05:15,767 --> 00:05:16,800
[Kelley] My game plan
146
00:05:16,867 --> 00:05:20,066
is to run the best
grappa mash
147
00:05:20,066 --> 00:05:21,066
that I can.
148
00:05:21,100 --> 00:05:23,467
I don't really have
any tricks up my sleeve
149
00:05:23,467 --> 00:05:25,400
other than running
the solid brandy mash
150
00:05:25,467 --> 00:05:26,500
that I'm used to.
151
00:05:26,567 --> 00:05:28,500
Everything that I've done here
152
00:05:28,567 --> 00:05:31,667
is techniques that
I'm practiced at.
153
00:05:31,667 --> 00:05:33,800
I'm not trying to experiment
while I'm here,
154
00:05:33,867 --> 00:05:35,867
and I think that's
in my best interest.
155
00:05:35,867 --> 00:05:37,266
[Mykala] Pedal to the metal.
156
00:05:38,500 --> 00:05:41,467
Having not a lot
of familiarity
157
00:05:41,467 --> 00:05:42,767
working with grappa,
158
00:05:42,767 --> 00:05:45,900
I am coming into
this final challenge
159
00:05:45,967 --> 00:05:48,166
knowing that I know
how to work a still.
160
00:05:48,166 --> 00:05:50,500
If it's got alcohol
in the mash,
161
00:05:51,000 --> 00:05:52,467
I can make it run.
162
00:05:52,467 --> 00:05:54,767
[Kelley whoops]
This works so good!
163
00:05:55,867 --> 00:05:57,700
[Kelley laughing]
I am not kidding!
164
00:05:57,767 --> 00:06:00,266
10 out of 10. Kelley approved.
165
00:06:00,266 --> 00:06:01,900
-Can you do me a favor?
-Yeah.
166
00:06:01,967 --> 00:06:04,000
-Pour the other half
of this bucket?
-[Mykala] Yep.
167
00:06:04,066 --> 00:06:05,367
Just don't worry
about getting me dirty.
168
00:06:05,367 --> 00:06:06,567
-I'm covered already.
-Coming in hot.
169
00:06:07,000 --> 00:06:08,100
Coming in hot.
170
00:06:08,166 --> 00:06:09,400
[Kelley laughing]
This is so trippy!
171
00:06:09,467 --> 00:06:11,500
Stomping the hell
out of them to get
all the juice out.
172
00:06:11,567 --> 00:06:15,200
I feel like that's my most
effective method
of extraction right now.
173
00:06:15,266 --> 00:06:16,867
And I'm doing it.
174
00:06:16,867 --> 00:06:17,967
[Kelley laughs]
175
00:06:17,967 --> 00:06:19,667
You know, last time
I screwed up bring the must
176
00:06:19,667 --> 00:06:21,400
because it got infected.
177
00:06:21,467 --> 00:06:23,367
So this time I'm going fresh.
178
00:06:23,367 --> 00:06:25,100
The first time I was
in a grappa challenge,
179
00:06:25,100 --> 00:06:27,000
I chose to bring a must,
180
00:06:27,066 --> 00:06:28,166
which are wine grapes
181
00:06:28,166 --> 00:06:30,367
that have already been
fermented and pressed.
182
00:06:30,367 --> 00:06:33,166
The problem was that
they started fermenting again
183
00:06:33,166 --> 00:06:34,367
on the way here,
184
00:06:34,367 --> 00:06:37,367
so by the time I got here
and put everything together,
185
00:06:37,367 --> 00:06:39,100
I realized that it wasn't
gonna taste good.
186
00:06:39,100 --> 00:06:42,066
Kelley, I'm sorry,
that jar bought you
a trip home, sweetie.
187
00:06:42,066 --> 00:06:42,900
It's okay.
188
00:06:42,967 --> 00:06:45,367
You just got those
sulfury artifacts,
189
00:06:45,367 --> 00:06:46,467
from your fermentation
190
00:06:46,467 --> 00:06:47,900
and carried through
your distillation.
191
00:06:47,967 --> 00:06:51,166
It was just unfortunate
circumstances.
192
00:06:51,166 --> 00:06:52,500
[Kelley]
I'm not doing that again.
193
00:06:52,567 --> 00:06:54,700
I'm choosing to use
grapes in stems only.
194
00:06:54,767 --> 00:06:57,100
I'm using 100% wine grapes,
195
00:06:57,166 --> 00:06:59,567
which makes
a much better grappa
than anything else.
196
00:06:59,567 --> 00:07:02,667
And I feel like adding any
sort of sugar to my mash
is cheating,
197
00:07:02,667 --> 00:07:03,667
so I'm not gonna do it.
198
00:07:03,667 --> 00:07:05,400
I want the grape flavor
to shine through.
199
00:07:06,867 --> 00:07:08,467
All right, guys.
You're halfway there.
200
00:07:08,467 --> 00:07:09,400
You've been 30 minutes.
201
00:07:09,467 --> 00:07:11,000
-[Kelley] Oh, my God.
-30 minutes to go.
202
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:11,867
[Kelley] Gotcha.
203
00:07:16,100 --> 00:07:17,667
-Hello, Kelley.
-Hello there.
204
00:07:17,667 --> 00:07:20,100
Now, last time you was making
some grappa and some grapes
205
00:07:20,166 --> 00:07:21,667
so I'm taking that you know
what you're doing.
206
00:07:21,667 --> 00:07:22,767
Yep.
207
00:07:22,767 --> 00:07:24,166
This time I'm doing things
a little bit differently.
208
00:07:24,166 --> 00:07:25,066
-Uh-oh.
-So...
209
00:07:25,066 --> 00:07:26,600
this time I picked
a bunch of grapes,
210
00:07:26,667 --> 00:07:27,867
hauled them over here fresh.
211
00:07:27,867 --> 00:07:30,800
These are a real dark,
super juicy, Zinfandel grapes.
212
00:07:30,867 --> 00:07:32,467
They're called Zinthiana
213
00:07:32,467 --> 00:07:33,667
So, are you calling
this grappa
214
00:07:33,667 --> 00:07:34,800
or are you calling it brandy
215
00:07:34,867 --> 00:07:36,000
since you're on
the outlaw side?
216
00:07:36,000 --> 00:07:36,800
[clicks tongue] Uh...
217
00:07:36,867 --> 00:07:37,867
Technically, brandy,
218
00:07:37,867 --> 00:07:39,467
but I'm calling it
'outlaw grappa'.
219
00:07:39,467 --> 00:07:40,367
Okay.
220
00:07:40,400 --> 00:07:41,767
I did add a little bit
of pectic enzyme
221
00:07:41,767 --> 00:07:44,400
just to help break down
some of those skins
222
00:07:44,467 --> 00:07:46,200
and access all the sugars
in my grapes.
223
00:07:46,266 --> 00:07:47,767
But beyond that,
224
00:07:47,767 --> 00:07:49,266
I'm not doing
any tomfoolery.
225
00:07:49,767 --> 00:07:51,100
Okay. All right.
226
00:07:51,166 --> 00:07:52,166
-Good luck.
-Mmm-hmm.
227
00:07:53,867 --> 00:07:55,400
-Mykala!
-Hello!
228
00:07:56,166 --> 00:07:57,667
Well, tell me
about your grappa
229
00:07:57,667 --> 00:07:59,166
or grape brandy here.
230
00:07:59,166 --> 00:08:01,300
It's kind of neither.
231
00:08:01,367 --> 00:08:02,767
-I opted to use raisings.
-Neither?
232
00:08:02,767 --> 00:08:03,800
Raisins?
233
00:08:03,867 --> 00:08:05,100
Raisins.
234
00:08:05,100 --> 00:08:08,767
I think with all of that extra
sediment nutrition in there,
235
00:08:08,767 --> 00:08:10,700
I'm hoping it takes off well.
236
00:08:10,767 --> 00:08:13,300
I opted to use raisins
237
00:08:13,367 --> 00:08:16,467
for this grappa,
grape brandy challenge.
238
00:08:16,467 --> 00:08:19,100
I know that it's a little
out of left field,
239
00:08:19,100 --> 00:08:21,400
but so am I, so it tracks.
240
00:08:21,467 --> 00:08:26,367
And I'm using a combination
of Concord, white grapes
and red grapes.
241
00:08:26,367 --> 00:08:28,100
What kinda strategy you got?
242
00:08:28,166 --> 00:08:30,100
So, by agitating the raisins,
243
00:08:30,100 --> 00:08:31,767
I think that's gonna
break off chunks,
244
00:08:31,767 --> 00:08:33,900
I think that's really
gonna help my ferment.
245
00:08:33,967 --> 00:08:36,467
Definitely hasn't been
an easy road to get here,
246
00:08:36,467 --> 00:08:38,467
but win, lose, or draw,
247
00:08:38,467 --> 00:08:40,000
I've been having
a really great time.
248
00:08:40,066 --> 00:08:41,867
-I look forward to it.
-Thank you, man.
249
00:08:41,867 --> 00:08:42,767
Good luck.
250
00:08:43,667 --> 00:08:45,000
-How's it going?
-Good.
251
00:08:45,066 --> 00:08:46,200
Oh, that looks perfect.
252
00:08:46,266 --> 00:08:48,367
Yeah, they're breaking
down nicely.
253
00:08:48,367 --> 00:08:49,767
-[Kelley] That's good.
-Yeah, yeah!
254
00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,266
All right, guys.
Five minutes to go.
255
00:08:56,667 --> 00:08:58,700
It's all happening.
256
00:08:59,500 --> 00:09:00,567
Three.
257
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:02,166
Two.
258
00:09:02,166 --> 00:09:03,367
One. That's it.
259
00:09:03,900 --> 00:09:05,367
We done.
260
00:09:05,367 --> 00:09:06,800
Step away from your barrels.
261
00:09:06,867 --> 00:09:08,300
We'll pitch the yeast later,
262
00:09:08,367 --> 00:09:09,967
record the starting gravity,
263
00:09:09,967 --> 00:09:10,867
and we'll come back
264
00:09:10,867 --> 00:09:12,467
and we'll see how much
alcohol you made.
265
00:09:12,467 --> 00:09:13,367
Let's get out of here.
266
00:09:21,867 --> 00:09:22,867
Watch your step, guys.
267
00:09:22,867 --> 00:09:24,400
There's all sort
of ankle killers
268
00:09:24,467 --> 00:09:25,300
up here, too.
269
00:09:26,100 --> 00:09:26,967
Howdy, boy.
270
00:09:26,967 --> 00:09:27,767
Hello, boss.
271
00:09:27,767 --> 00:09:29,367
-[Digger] Easy.
-Good mornin'.
272
00:09:29,367 --> 00:09:30,533
-Morning.
-Morning.
273
00:09:30,533 --> 00:09:32,100
-Good morning.
-How you guys doin'
this morning?
274
00:09:32,166 --> 00:09:33,266
Great.
275
00:09:33,300 --> 00:09:35,667
All right, guys, we recorded
your starting gravity
276
00:09:35,667 --> 00:09:36,767
a few days ago.
277
00:09:36,767 --> 00:09:38,400
Then we're gonna check
your finished gravity.
278
00:09:38,467 --> 00:09:39,867
That's gonna tell us
279
00:09:39,867 --> 00:09:43,100
how much potential alcohol
there is in your mash.
280
00:09:43,100 --> 00:09:44,367
[narrator] A Brix hydrometer
281
00:09:44,367 --> 00:09:46,266
measures the relative density
282
00:09:46,266 --> 00:09:48,266
of the liquid
compared to water
283
00:09:48,266 --> 00:09:51,000
otherwise known
as specific gravity.
284
00:09:51,000 --> 00:09:53,066
By comparing
the specific gravity
285
00:09:53,066 --> 00:09:56,467
of the mash before
and after fermentation,
286
00:09:56,467 --> 00:09:59,767
distillers can calculate
how much of the original sugar
287
00:09:59,767 --> 00:10:01,867
has been converted to alcohol.
288
00:10:01,867 --> 00:10:04,066
The higher
the alcohol by volume,
289
00:10:04,066 --> 00:10:05,467
the better.
290
00:10:05,467 --> 00:10:07,467
-We all square
about the challenge?
-[both] Mmm-hmm.
291
00:10:07,467 --> 00:10:09,266
We gonna start right here
292
00:10:09,266 --> 00:10:10,467
with Mykala.
293
00:10:10,967 --> 00:10:12,500
Aight.
294
00:10:12,567 --> 00:10:15,000
Let me see here
what we got from Mykala.
295
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:17,467
[Mykala] Definitely
looking to have
296
00:10:17,467 --> 00:10:18,967
every advantage I can
297
00:10:18,967 --> 00:10:22,000
going into this
grappa challenge.
298
00:10:22,000 --> 00:10:24,266
It's really Kelley's
field of experience,
299
00:10:24,266 --> 00:10:26,500
and so if I can win
this challenge,
300
00:10:26,567 --> 00:10:28,567
then hopefully it'll help me
in the end.
301
00:10:28,567 --> 00:10:29,600
[Digger] Let me see that.
302
00:10:29,667 --> 00:10:30,600
[Mark] Mmm-hmm.
303
00:10:31,266 --> 00:10:32,467
Wow.
304
00:10:32,467 --> 00:10:33,700
[Digger] Get you
a little taste.
305
00:10:33,767 --> 00:10:35,467
-[Mark] Yes, please.
-You're the official taster.
306
00:10:35,467 --> 00:10:36,600
Oh, my...
307
00:10:39,600 --> 00:10:41,367
That a shame
turn that into liquor.
308
00:10:41,367 --> 00:10:42,300
[giggles]
309
00:10:42,367 --> 00:10:46,000
Mykala, your beginning
gravity is 1.050.
310
00:10:46,000 --> 00:10:49,066
We're gonna do the hydrometer
test on it now.
311
00:10:49,066 --> 00:10:50,266
We'll see where we're at.
312
00:10:51,100 --> 00:10:52,367
And here we go!
313
00:10:53,867 --> 00:10:55,367
Ah! You're zeroed out.
314
00:10:55,367 --> 00:10:58,300
You're at 1.000.
315
00:10:58,367 --> 00:11:02,967
That gives you a potential
alcohol by volume of 12%.
316
00:11:02,967 --> 00:11:04,867
-You good with that?
-Very good with that.
317
00:11:04,867 --> 00:11:07,266
All right, moving on
to Miss Kelley.
318
00:11:07,266 --> 00:11:09,367
Get me a little tasty
of that out there.
319
00:11:09,367 --> 00:11:11,700
I think I shall.
I might get myself a little.
320
00:11:11,767 --> 00:11:14,567
[Mark] I'm telling you,
this is some handsome
mash right here.
321
00:11:18,367 --> 00:11:19,567
It is really good.
322
00:11:19,567 --> 00:11:25,100
Beginning gravity
for Miss Kelley is 1.035.
323
00:11:25,166 --> 00:11:27,667
Let's put a little
in the column here
324
00:11:27,667 --> 00:11:29,266
to see what you come up to.
325
00:11:29,266 --> 00:11:30,500
[Mark] Oki-doki.
326
00:11:37,266 --> 00:11:39,700
I'm not feeling
really confident
about the ABV test.
327
00:11:39,767 --> 00:11:43,567
I know that Mykala used
a whole lot of sugar,
328
00:11:43,567 --> 00:11:46,867
so she's just gonna have
a denser mash.
329
00:11:46,867 --> 00:11:48,700
So I'm a little bit worried.
330
00:11:48,767 --> 00:11:50,200
I hope I've got
enough to win.
331
00:11:50,700 --> 00:11:52,567
So, Kelly.
332
00:11:52,567 --> 00:11:54,000
You are...
333
00:12:02,867 --> 00:12:07,867
Mykala, you got a potential
alcohol by volume of 12%.
334
00:12:07,867 --> 00:12:09,867
-You good with that?
-Very good with that.
335
00:12:09,867 --> 00:12:12,100
All right, moving on
to Miss Kelley.
336
00:12:12,100 --> 00:12:15,667
Beginning gravity at 1.035.
337
00:12:15,667 --> 00:12:18,266
Let's put a little
in the column here
338
00:12:18,266 --> 00:12:19,767
to see what you come up to.
339
00:12:19,767 --> 00:12:20,800
[Mark] Oki-doki.
340
00:12:21,567 --> 00:12:22,467
Kelly...
341
00:12:23,467 --> 00:12:27,166
you are almost flattened out.
342
00:12:27,567 --> 00:12:31,467
You are 1.002.
343
00:12:31,867 --> 00:12:34,000
Potential ABV...
344
00:12:34,000 --> 00:12:36,367
that should be
right around 10%.
345
00:12:36,367 --> 00:12:38,166
[Mark] Mykala, great job.
346
00:12:38,166 --> 00:12:40,166
You're the winner
of this little challenge.
347
00:12:40,166 --> 00:12:42,467
I've only got 10% alcohol.
348
00:12:42,467 --> 00:12:43,667
So, I'm a little bit worried.
349
00:12:44,467 --> 00:12:45,600
[Digger] All right, guys.
350
00:12:45,600 --> 00:12:47,867
You know normally mash
would be where your still is.
351
00:12:47,867 --> 00:12:49,967
Now, here's your curveball.
352
00:12:49,967 --> 00:12:52,900
You gotta get your mash
to that still
353
00:12:53,400 --> 00:12:54,400
in a safe manner
354
00:12:54,467 --> 00:12:56,700
in the back
of that UTV over there.
355
00:12:56,767 --> 00:12:58,166
[all laughing]
356
00:12:58,166 --> 00:12:59,333
[Digger] To move your mash,
357
00:12:59,333 --> 00:13:00,867
you're gonna need
to strap it down
good and tight.
358
00:13:01,700 --> 00:13:02,667
[Digger and Mark] And...
359
00:13:02,667 --> 00:13:03,867
[Digger] ...we've seen
what can happen
360
00:13:03,867 --> 00:13:06,100
when people aren't careful
with their mash.
361
00:13:09,367 --> 00:13:11,867
Moving mash barrels
from one place to the next,
362
00:13:11,867 --> 00:13:14,300
now, that requires two things.
363
00:13:14,367 --> 00:13:15,967
Skill and patience.
364
00:13:16,600 --> 00:13:17,900
Now, if you lose the barrel...
365
00:13:18,367 --> 00:13:19,700
Damn it to hell!
366
00:13:19,767 --> 00:13:21,200
...that could affect
your output,
367
00:13:21,266 --> 00:13:22,367
your run,
368
00:13:22,367 --> 00:13:24,367
and most importantly,
your profit.
369
00:13:24,367 --> 00:13:27,767
Lord knows we've had
some mashes loose
in the back woods.
370
00:13:27,767 --> 00:13:29,700
-[all exclaiming]
-[man] Run!
371
00:13:29,767 --> 00:13:30,667
Get out of there!
372
00:13:31,100 --> 00:13:31,867
And stay back!
373
00:13:35,200 --> 00:13:36,467
-Mykala.
-Mmh?
374
00:13:36,467 --> 00:13:39,567
Since you have the highest
potential ABV,
375
00:13:39,567 --> 00:13:42,266
you get first choice
at tie-down devices
376
00:13:42,266 --> 00:13:44,667
to strap down your mash
in the UTV.
377
00:13:44,667 --> 00:13:46,767
Kelley, you'll have
to take what's left.
378
00:13:46,767 --> 00:13:48,100
Challenge accepted.
379
00:13:48,166 --> 00:13:50,500
Aight, ain't no time
like the present, guys.
380
00:13:50,567 --> 00:13:51,667
Let's get with it.
381
00:13:51,667 --> 00:13:53,367
Grab your mash
and let's go.
382
00:13:53,367 --> 00:13:54,367
Follow us.
383
00:14:00,200 --> 00:14:03,567
Mykala, this will be
your vehicle right here.
384
00:14:03,567 --> 00:14:06,500
So, step over and pick out
your poison.
385
00:14:10,467 --> 00:14:11,667
I didn't see that coming.
386
00:14:11,667 --> 00:14:13,767
[Digger] Would have never
thunk that in a million years.
387
00:14:13,767 --> 00:14:14,667
It's all you taking?
388
00:14:15,100 --> 00:14:16,967
It's all I need.
389
00:14:16,967 --> 00:14:19,567
I cannot believe that Mykala
went for that rope.
390
00:14:19,567 --> 00:14:22,200
I think she knows
how to tie some knots
391
00:14:22,767 --> 00:14:24,100
that I don't know about.
392
00:14:24,667 --> 00:14:25,800
All right, Kelley.
393
00:14:25,800 --> 00:14:28,266
You know you can
strap yours down
as you see fit
394
00:14:28,266 --> 00:14:29,667
with whatever remains.
395
00:14:29,667 --> 00:14:31,266
Um... we're gonna do this.
396
00:14:38,100 --> 00:14:39,000
I don't need these.
397
00:14:40,367 --> 00:14:42,767
All right, Kelley.
Team Outlaw.
398
00:14:42,767 --> 00:14:44,967
Mykala, Team Legal.
399
00:14:44,967 --> 00:14:46,800
Your challenge is,
400
00:14:46,867 --> 00:14:48,667
get your mash strapped in,
401
00:14:48,667 --> 00:14:49,667
get it down the hill.
402
00:14:51,700 --> 00:14:52,800
Be careful now.
403
00:14:52,867 --> 00:14:54,066
It's a bumpy road.
404
00:14:59,266 --> 00:15:01,200
[Mykala] I'm opting
to use the rope.
405
00:15:01,266 --> 00:15:02,166
It's flexible,
406
00:15:02,166 --> 00:15:04,100
you can tie a million knots,
407
00:15:04,100 --> 00:15:06,000
I think it's gonna be
the smartest move for me.
408
00:15:07,266 --> 00:15:09,266
This went totally sideways
409
00:15:09,266 --> 00:15:11,967
in a way that I wouldn't
even halfway predicted.
410
00:15:11,967 --> 00:15:12,867
[Kelley] All I'm trying to do
411
00:15:12,867 --> 00:15:14,367
is just get this secured
412
00:15:14,367 --> 00:15:17,166
to the side right behind me.
413
00:15:17,166 --> 00:15:19,266
I've seen the hill
that we're riding down.
414
00:15:19,266 --> 00:15:22,100
And I know that if I go
any closer to the middle
415
00:15:22,166 --> 00:15:24,100
or any closer
to the passenger side,
416
00:15:24,100 --> 00:15:25,567
I'm gonna spill a ton of mash.
417
00:15:25,567 --> 00:15:27,000
So I'm just spaghetting this,
418
00:15:27,066 --> 00:15:28,367
I don't care
what it looks like.
419
00:15:29,400 --> 00:15:30,867
[humming to herself]
420
00:15:30,867 --> 00:15:31,900
[Kelley] How you doing?
421
00:15:31,967 --> 00:15:33,467
[Mykala] Yeah, I think
I'm just trying to decide,
422
00:15:33,467 --> 00:15:35,667
like, how else
I wanna anchor it.
423
00:15:36,467 --> 00:15:37,266
Where you at?
424
00:15:37,567 --> 00:15:38,400
[tuts]
425
00:15:38,467 --> 00:15:39,567
Yeah, this here.
426
00:15:44,400 --> 00:15:45,600
[Digger] This whole thing
right here,
427
00:15:45,667 --> 00:15:46,600
what we're looking at,
428
00:15:46,600 --> 00:15:48,367
it explains what
this whole world's about.
429
00:15:48,367 --> 00:15:51,800
I mean, we got
legal and outlaws...
helping each other.
430
00:15:51,867 --> 00:15:52,800
They're still a team.
431
00:15:52,867 --> 00:15:54,166
[Mark] They get it.
432
00:15:54,166 --> 00:15:55,967
Do you want me to just
get all the slack out of this?
433
00:15:55,967 --> 00:15:57,400
-Yeah.
-Okay.
434
00:15:57,467 --> 00:15:58,800
Oh, wait. Let me...
435
00:15:59,367 --> 00:16:00,467
I'm a little nervous.
436
00:16:00,467 --> 00:16:01,900
I don't have
the best track record
437
00:16:01,967 --> 00:16:03,867
with keeping my mash
in the barrel
438
00:16:03,867 --> 00:16:05,266
and not all over me.
439
00:16:05,266 --> 00:16:06,767
So I'm very much hoping
440
00:16:06,767 --> 00:16:08,867
that I don't dunk myself.
441
00:16:08,867 --> 00:16:10,200
[Kelley] I think this is,
like, really solid.
442
00:16:10,266 --> 00:16:11,467
[Mykala] Yeah.
443
00:16:11,467 --> 00:16:12,567
-You good?
-Yeah.
444
00:16:12,567 --> 00:16:13,467
-Okay.
-Thank you.
445
00:16:15,867 --> 00:16:16,767
Think that'll do her.
446
00:16:18,166 --> 00:16:19,667
I think that's as good
as it's gonna get.
447
00:16:20,100 --> 00:16:20,967
All right.
448
00:16:20,967 --> 00:16:22,100
Just a matter now
449
00:16:22,100 --> 00:16:24,667
of transporting your mash
to the stills.
450
00:16:25,266 --> 00:16:26,367
And if you're ready for...
451
00:16:26,367 --> 00:16:28,266
Oh! One last thing.
452
00:16:28,266 --> 00:16:29,700
Another curveball.
453
00:16:31,100 --> 00:16:32,367
Take those lids off.
454
00:16:34,000 --> 00:16:35,400
[sighs deeply]
455
00:16:38,100 --> 00:16:39,000
You monsters.
456
00:16:39,000 --> 00:16:40,767
[Mark] Yep, there you go.
457
00:16:40,767 --> 00:16:42,667
-[Mykala sighs]
-Now you're good to go.
458
00:16:42,667 --> 00:16:44,867
It's a little nerve-wracking
459
00:16:44,867 --> 00:16:47,367
that they made us
take the lids off.
460
00:16:47,367 --> 00:16:49,900
[Digger] Put them tailgates up
and get 'em down the hill.
461
00:16:49,967 --> 00:16:51,467
[Mykala] So,
I'm going into this
462
00:16:51,467 --> 00:16:53,467
a little bit more cautiously.
463
00:16:53,467 --> 00:16:55,500
[Digger] Careful, careful.
464
00:16:55,567 --> 00:16:58,066
This may be all you got
at the end of the day.
465
00:16:59,867 --> 00:17:01,166
[engine starting]
466
00:17:03,767 --> 00:17:05,467
All right, girls, you ready?
467
00:17:06,300 --> 00:17:07,300
Get going!
468
00:17:07,367 --> 00:17:08,100
Go!
469
00:17:10,400 --> 00:17:11,500
[Mark] Go, Mykala!
470
00:17:12,066 --> 00:17:13,166
Come on, keep with it!
471
00:17:21,767 --> 00:17:22,500
[Kelley exclaims]
472
00:17:28,467 --> 00:17:30,100
I'm Driving Miss Daisy.
473
00:17:30,100 --> 00:17:31,867
I'm driving real slow.
474
00:17:31,867 --> 00:17:33,166
I don't have
a whole lot of mash,
475
00:17:33,166 --> 00:17:35,967
so spilling this could
potentially destroy me.
476
00:17:41,300 --> 00:17:44,000
[Mykala] It was probably
a good thing that Kelley's
in front of me,
477
00:17:44,066 --> 00:17:46,166
because I would have
driven a lot faster,
478
00:17:46,166 --> 00:17:48,767
and probably would have
lost a lot more mash.
479
00:17:54,567 --> 00:17:55,400
[whooping]
480
00:17:57,767 --> 00:17:58,867
[Tim] You made it.
481
00:17:58,867 --> 00:18:00,367
Let's see how much mash
you got left.
482
00:18:00,367 --> 00:18:01,700
Yeah.
483
00:18:01,767 --> 00:18:03,100
You don't look like
you lost too much.
484
00:18:03,100 --> 00:18:04,900
[Mykala] No, I think
I did okay.
485
00:18:04,967 --> 00:18:07,166
You did good tying it up
and everything.
486
00:18:07,166 --> 00:18:09,100
What's Mykala got
going on over here?
487
00:18:09,100 --> 00:18:11,066
She got the bungee cords
going on.
488
00:18:11,066 --> 00:18:12,100
Outstanding.
489
00:18:12,166 --> 00:18:14,200
You don't have...
probably nothing leaped out.
490
00:18:14,266 --> 00:18:16,066
Y'all did a good job
at driving.
491
00:18:16,066 --> 00:18:17,800
Thank all you gotta do
is get them out of that rig
492
00:18:18,467 --> 00:18:19,700
and follow me.
493
00:18:19,767 --> 00:18:20,800
-You got it.
-[Kelley] Yes, sir.
494
00:18:29,900 --> 00:18:31,066
[Digger] Ah, ladies.
495
00:18:31,066 --> 00:18:32,300
Everybody made it back.
496
00:18:32,367 --> 00:18:34,266
How much mash
did you lose?
497
00:18:34,266 --> 00:18:35,967
Just a couple of drops,
nothing too bad.
498
00:18:35,967 --> 00:18:37,700
Nobody got a bath in it,
that's a good thing.
499
00:18:37,767 --> 00:18:39,066
[chuckling]
500
00:18:39,066 --> 00:18:40,567
Well, you know,
you done eliminated
everyone around you.
501
00:18:41,266 --> 00:18:42,367
It's only you two.
502
00:18:42,367 --> 00:18:43,400
You know what that means.
503
00:18:44,467 --> 00:18:46,200
One of you will be
Master Distiller.
504
00:18:47,467 --> 00:18:49,200
Aight, you guys
ready to get going
505
00:18:49,266 --> 00:18:50,467
and make us some liquor?
506
00:18:50,467 --> 00:18:51,467
-Yes, sir.
-Yep.
507
00:18:51,467 --> 00:18:52,600
[Digger] So am I.
508
00:18:52,600 --> 00:18:55,567
It's time for y'all to run us
that beautiful grappa.
509
00:18:56,166 --> 00:18:57,166
We're ready for it.
510
00:18:57,166 --> 00:18:58,767
I love it.
Ready to taste it.
511
00:18:58,767 --> 00:19:00,567
It's your final challenge.
512
00:19:00,567 --> 00:19:03,467
Bring us your signature
grape liquor.
513
00:19:03,467 --> 00:19:05,166
We just want it
on this table
514
00:19:05,166 --> 00:19:06,767
before four hours past.
515
00:19:06,767 --> 00:19:08,600
Good luck to you ladies.
516
00:19:08,667 --> 00:19:11,000
Bring it. I can't wait.
517
00:19:11,066 --> 00:19:12,166
You got four hours.
518
00:19:12,900 --> 00:19:14,700
Your time starts... now.
519
00:19:14,767 --> 00:19:15,700
Good luck and get with it.
520
00:19:15,767 --> 00:19:16,700
Good luck, ladies.
521
00:19:22,000 --> 00:19:24,367
Always assess
the equipment first.
522
00:19:24,367 --> 00:19:26,500
Always a smart move
check it's locked down.
523
00:19:27,767 --> 00:19:30,166
[Kelley] To be competing
against Mykala,
524
00:19:30,166 --> 00:19:32,200
it's a little intimidating.
525
00:19:32,266 --> 00:19:34,100
Mykala really knows
what she's doing
526
00:19:34,100 --> 00:19:36,000
and she's stiff competition.
527
00:19:40,166 --> 00:19:43,500
So I am bringing
my A-game here.
528
00:19:43,567 --> 00:19:45,100
And I'm bringing my 100%.
529
00:19:45,100 --> 00:19:46,367
And even if I don't win,
530
00:19:46,367 --> 00:19:48,567
I'm the last outlaw
distiller that's left.
531
00:19:51,367 --> 00:19:54,767
[Mykala] Think I got as much
mash as I need in there.
532
00:19:54,767 --> 00:19:57,000
I'm pleased with how
my mash turned out.
533
00:19:57,066 --> 00:19:59,266
And I'm pleased
with the flavor.
534
00:19:59,266 --> 00:20:02,667
I'm just hoping that it makes
a good spirit in the end.
535
00:20:07,166 --> 00:20:09,367
I'm planning to run the still
low and slow.
536
00:20:09,367 --> 00:20:12,367
I wanna make sure that
I have the full spectrum
537
00:20:12,367 --> 00:20:15,867
of taste and alcohol available
for blending later.
538
00:20:17,000 --> 00:20:18,400
[Digger] There's a big
contrast here.
539
00:20:18,467 --> 00:20:21,367
We got a red wine,
a deep red wine.
540
00:20:22,000 --> 00:20:23,700
With a white wine.
541
00:20:23,767 --> 00:20:27,367
I mean, that's basically...
we're cooking off here
at the end of the day.
542
00:20:27,367 --> 00:20:31,100
Both of these young ladies
are as comfortable
543
00:20:31,100 --> 00:20:33,967
as if they'd done this
all their lives.
544
00:20:33,967 --> 00:20:36,100
[Tim] Yeah, they know
where they're at.
545
00:20:36,166 --> 00:20:39,900
[Kelley] I'm very confident
in the quality of mash
that I've created.
546
00:20:39,967 --> 00:20:42,767
But as I'm taking out
all the grape seeds and stems,
547
00:20:42,767 --> 00:20:44,567
I'm realizing that
I'm ending up with
548
00:20:44,567 --> 00:20:47,567
more like nine
or 10 gallons of mash
549
00:20:47,567 --> 00:20:50,900
rather than the 14 or 15
that I thought I would.
550
00:20:50,967 --> 00:20:53,800
Um, I'm gonna use
every last bit of it
that I can get.
551
00:20:53,867 --> 00:20:56,900
And given the failure
of my last grappa run here,
552
00:20:56,967 --> 00:20:59,100
the most anxiety-inducing
part for me
553
00:20:59,100 --> 00:21:01,600
is even producing
any sort of spirit,
554
00:21:01,667 --> 00:21:03,467
let alone a palatable one.
555
00:21:03,467 --> 00:21:06,000
Basically, it's got a fire lit
under my ass.
556
00:21:13,166 --> 00:21:15,367
As I'm taking out
all the grape seeds and stems,
557
00:21:15,367 --> 00:21:17,266
I'm realizing that
I'm ending up with
558
00:21:17,266 --> 00:21:20,100
more like nine
or 10 gallons of mash
559
00:21:20,100 --> 00:21:22,600
rather than the 14 or 15
that I thought I would.
560
00:21:22,667 --> 00:21:25,000
I'm literally gonna scrape
the bottom of the barrel
561
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:27,100
to get all of the liquid
that I can out of here.
562
00:21:27,100 --> 00:21:28,667
I don't care
how long it takes.
563
00:21:28,667 --> 00:21:31,600
That's as nice a looking
color of mash, though,
as I've saw.
564
00:21:31,667 --> 00:21:33,000
[Digger] Yeah,
it's pretty mash.
565
00:21:33,000 --> 00:21:35,066
[Kelley] I'm happy
with the color.
I'm happy with the flavor.
566
00:21:35,066 --> 00:21:36,467
So far,
I don't smell anything off,
567
00:21:36,467 --> 00:21:38,000
but we've got to
find out, huh?
568
00:21:38,000 --> 00:21:39,066
[Mark] I reckon.
569
00:21:39,066 --> 00:21:40,867
We're gonna figure out here
in a little bit.
570
00:21:42,367 --> 00:21:44,000
[Kelley] How are you feeling,
little bop bop?
571
00:21:44,000 --> 00:21:45,667
-[Mykala] Oh, good.
-Good?
572
00:21:45,667 --> 00:21:47,400
Should be good
after I fill the thumper.
573
00:21:47,467 --> 00:21:49,166
I'm still going back and forth
574
00:21:49,166 --> 00:21:52,000
-on if I wanna put
some raisins in the thumper.
-[Kelley] Yeah.
575
00:21:52,000 --> 00:21:54,100
My experience
working with thumpers
576
00:21:54,100 --> 00:21:56,600
is pretty limited
at a legal distillery.
577
00:21:56,667 --> 00:21:58,100
So I'm a little nervous.
578
00:21:58,100 --> 00:22:01,400
But I understand
the basic principles
of how it works
579
00:22:01,467 --> 00:22:03,800
and I think that
putting the raisins in there
580
00:22:03,867 --> 00:22:06,166
would really benefit
the overall flavor.
581
00:22:07,066 --> 00:22:08,066
How are you doing?
582
00:22:08,867 --> 00:22:10,500
[Kelley] Ah!
I'm about to light.
583
00:22:13,000 --> 00:22:14,000
Whoo!
584
00:22:15,567 --> 00:22:17,266
-[Digger] Mykala?
-Mmm?
585
00:22:17,266 --> 00:22:19,800
[Digger] Is this
a new recipe on you
or is it...
586
00:22:19,867 --> 00:22:22,100
It is my first time trying it
587
00:22:22,100 --> 00:22:24,367
so we'll see how she goes.
588
00:22:24,367 --> 00:22:28,166
Not having
a lot of familiarity
working with grappa,
589
00:22:28,166 --> 00:22:30,867
I'm definitely
a little nervous
going into this.
590
00:22:30,867 --> 00:22:32,667
But my test batches with it
591
00:22:32,667 --> 00:22:34,367
actually turned out
pretty tasty.
592
00:22:34,367 --> 00:22:36,767
Well, we couldn't have picked
593
00:22:36,767 --> 00:22:40,000
a batter pair to compete
in this final round.
594
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:43,867
I mean, it is kinda special
that we ended up
with two ladies.
595
00:22:43,867 --> 00:22:45,000
Yeah.
596
00:22:45,000 --> 00:22:47,567
Mykala and Kelley
both are the final two.
597
00:22:47,567 --> 00:22:49,266
Cream rises to the top.
598
00:22:49,266 --> 00:22:52,066
[Kelley] Even though
we're down to two women
at the end
599
00:22:52,066 --> 00:22:54,000
and I feel so much
comradery there,
600
00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:55,700
um, there's still
an element of competition
601
00:22:55,700 --> 00:22:59,367
and I feel like
an outlaw distiller like me
is gonna come out on top
602
00:22:59,367 --> 00:23:02,266
because we're versatile
and we're tough as nails.
603
00:23:04,900 --> 00:23:06,467
[Digger] Those were
all raisins, Mykala?
604
00:23:06,467 --> 00:23:07,500
Yep.
605
00:23:07,567 --> 00:23:09,567
-I like it.
I like your spirit.
-Yeah.
606
00:23:09,567 --> 00:23:12,266
-We'll, they just rehydrated,
didn't they?
-Yep.
607
00:23:12,266 --> 00:23:16,000
So much aroma is contained
in the skins of grapes.
608
00:23:16,000 --> 00:23:17,300
When they're made
into raisins,
609
00:23:17,367 --> 00:23:20,000
you lose a lot of those
volatile oils.
610
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:23,667
So I was hoping that,
putting the raisins
into the thumper,
611
00:23:23,667 --> 00:23:26,700
I would be able to elicit
at least some extra flavor.
612
00:23:26,767 --> 00:23:28,500
Did you end up
having enough mash
613
00:23:28,567 --> 00:23:30,300
-without having to
go crazy straining it?
-Yeah.
614
00:23:30,367 --> 00:23:31,667
[Mykala] Nice.
615
00:23:31,667 --> 00:23:33,166
Anything going in the thumper?
616
00:23:33,166 --> 00:23:35,667
I'm gonna
wait till it heats up
and pop some in there.
617
00:23:35,667 --> 00:23:38,500
I'm only putting enough mash
into my thumper
618
00:23:38,567 --> 00:23:40,767
to where it will run properly
619
00:23:40,767 --> 00:23:42,967
because I can't afford
to lose a whole lot.
620
00:23:42,967 --> 00:23:45,600
I wanna be able to infuse
some flavor in there,
621
00:23:45,667 --> 00:23:48,100
but not at the risk
of losing volume.
622
00:23:48,967 --> 00:23:50,166
Hey, come here.
623
00:23:52,667 --> 00:23:54,266
That looks cross-center to me.
624
00:23:54,266 --> 00:23:56,500
-Mmm.
-What do you think?
625
00:23:56,567 --> 00:23:59,300
It does kinda look like
it's a little
off-kilter that way.
626
00:23:59,367 --> 00:24:00,467
[Kelley] I think so too.
627
00:24:00,467 --> 00:24:02,867
Crookeder than
a dog's hind leg.
628
00:24:04,867 --> 00:24:07,900
[Mykala] I mean,
there's no real harm
in pasting it now.
629
00:24:07,967 --> 00:24:10,567
Being that I already have
less ABV than Mykala,
630
00:24:10,567 --> 00:24:12,300
I can't afford to have a leak.
631
00:24:12,367 --> 00:24:13,600
I'm not even gonna risk it
632
00:24:13,667 --> 00:24:16,000
and I'm gonna paste up
every joint in my still.
633
00:24:16,000 --> 00:24:17,400
I'm just gonna
lay the paste to it.
634
00:24:17,467 --> 00:24:18,700
I just wanna make sure.
635
00:24:18,767 --> 00:24:21,767
If I spring a leak
I'm gonna be pissed.
636
00:24:23,100 --> 00:24:24,400
You thumping yet?
637
00:24:24,467 --> 00:24:28,000
I'm at 180, so should be
heating the thumper soon.
638
00:24:28,066 --> 00:24:29,767
I'll feel better
once I can smell it.
639
00:24:31,767 --> 00:24:34,266
Two hours, guys.
You're halfway home.
640
00:24:34,266 --> 00:24:37,100
-Oh, so close!
-160. I know!
641
00:24:37,166 --> 00:24:39,100
Did you know that checking it
every five seconds
642
00:24:39,166 --> 00:24:41,467
doesn't actually make it
heat up faster?
643
00:24:41,467 --> 00:24:42,967
I hear that water is wet.
644
00:24:42,967 --> 00:24:44,000
[bleep]
645
00:24:44,066 --> 00:24:46,166
I know. I'm just sitting here
watching it.
646
00:24:46,166 --> 00:24:48,467
Oh, speaking of...
647
00:24:48,467 --> 00:24:50,767
-Can I use some of your paste?
-[Kelley] Yeah, of course.
648
00:24:50,767 --> 00:24:52,367
[Mykala] It's, like,
really leaking.
649
00:24:55,000 --> 00:24:58,467
I do have some experience
with moonshine paste.
650
00:24:58,467 --> 00:25:00,467
It's a trick that was
up my sleeve
651
00:25:00,467 --> 00:25:02,467
but, working in
a legal distillery,
652
00:25:02,467 --> 00:25:04,367
not one that
I have to use regularly.
653
00:25:05,300 --> 00:25:06,467
Hot, hot, hot!
654
00:25:07,166 --> 00:25:08,667
You all right, babe?
655
00:25:08,667 --> 00:25:10,467
Yeah, I think
I might have got it.
656
00:25:12,967 --> 00:25:14,867
Hey, perfect timing.
657
00:25:14,867 --> 00:25:16,066
I got liquor.
658
00:25:16,066 --> 00:25:17,567
[Kelley] Hey-yo!
659
00:25:17,567 --> 00:25:18,900
Here you go, baby.
660
00:25:21,200 --> 00:25:22,300
Whoo!
661
00:25:22,367 --> 00:25:24,266
That's a little bit spicy.
662
00:25:24,266 --> 00:25:28,000
There's definitely some
"al-key-hol," as they say.
663
00:25:28,066 --> 00:25:30,100
[Kelley] And liquor.
Oh, there we go.
664
00:25:31,166 --> 00:25:32,900
Attagirl. Big girl.
665
00:25:34,367 --> 00:25:35,367
Come on, baby.
666
00:25:36,100 --> 00:25:37,467
Love you so much.
667
00:25:38,900 --> 00:25:41,200
[sings] This is the first jar.
668
00:25:41,266 --> 00:25:43,500
-[Kelley] How's it coming?
Taste good?
-[Mykala] Good.
669
00:25:43,567 --> 00:25:44,867
Still in the heads,
670
00:25:44,867 --> 00:25:47,300
but I'm happy with
the aroma and stuff, so...
671
00:25:48,166 --> 00:25:50,867
As the spirit
is coming off the still,
672
00:25:50,867 --> 00:25:52,467
I'm liking the aroma
673
00:25:52,467 --> 00:25:55,100
and I think that,
once I get
later on in the run,
674
00:25:55,166 --> 00:25:57,767
I think it's gonna be
pretty tasty.
675
00:25:58,967 --> 00:26:00,767
-Do you wanna smell?
-[Kelley] Totally.
676
00:26:04,467 --> 00:26:05,667
Nom nom.
677
00:26:05,667 --> 00:26:07,667
I think it'll be pretty good.
678
00:26:07,667 --> 00:26:10,266
-Can I get
a little smell of yours?
-Of course, yeah.
679
00:26:10,266 --> 00:26:11,367
Tell me what you think.
680
00:26:12,266 --> 00:26:14,667
Oh, that smells really nice.
681
00:26:14,667 --> 00:26:16,300
-Yeah.
-Holy biscuits.
682
00:26:16,367 --> 00:26:20,166
My first thought
trying Kelley's grappa
was, "Oh, no."
683
00:26:20,166 --> 00:26:22,000
The aroma, super pleasant.
684
00:26:22,000 --> 00:26:23,867
I think it's really smooth.
685
00:26:23,867 --> 00:26:27,600
You can absolutely
taste the grapes
that she made it from.
686
00:26:27,667 --> 00:26:30,100
I think it's gonna be
a really tough decision.
687
00:26:30,166 --> 00:26:32,900
You definitely have me
beat on flavor in the early.
688
00:26:32,967 --> 00:26:35,066
I'm hoping I can pull some
later in the run.
689
00:26:37,266 --> 00:26:39,867
Ladies, you are officially
down to one hour.
690
00:26:41,367 --> 00:26:42,567
I'm just about done.
691
00:26:42,567 --> 00:26:43,467
Yeah?
692
00:26:43,500 --> 00:26:45,867
I mean, I didn't have
that much liquid.
693
00:26:45,867 --> 00:26:47,700
I've got enough experience
in running grappa
694
00:26:47,767 --> 00:26:51,166
to know that there's no point
in me running any longer.
695
00:26:51,166 --> 00:26:53,367
There's nothing
in grappa tails that I want.
696
00:26:53,367 --> 00:26:55,100
I've just gotta
come up with one good jar,
697
00:26:55,100 --> 00:26:58,100
but, hopefully, I have a few
to play around with.
698
00:26:58,166 --> 00:26:59,166
All right.
699
00:26:59,667 --> 00:27:00,767
Bring her down.
700
00:27:00,767 --> 00:27:02,000
-[Mykala] All done?
-Mmm-hmm.
701
00:27:02,667 --> 00:27:03,867
Yay!
702
00:27:03,867 --> 00:27:07,100
Do you think you'll blend jars
or are you gonna just...
703
00:27:07,100 --> 00:27:08,467
I'm gonna sit here
and stare at it
704
00:27:08,467 --> 00:27:11,367
for about 30 minutes, I think,
and then we'll see
705
00:27:11,367 --> 00:27:13,166
'cause I just don't have
a whole lot to work with.
706
00:27:13,166 --> 00:27:14,400
Yeah.
707
00:27:15,266 --> 00:27:16,867
[Tim] Kelley,
708
00:27:16,867 --> 00:27:18,467
-what are you doing?
-Hey, buddy.
709
00:27:18,467 --> 00:27:20,166
You taking it apart
or putting it together?
710
00:27:20,166 --> 00:27:21,567
Taking it apart. I'm done.
711
00:27:21,567 --> 00:27:23,100
You're done? Okay.
712
00:27:23,166 --> 00:27:24,467
You don't have many jars here.
713
00:27:24,467 --> 00:27:26,767
You didn't have enough
to produce enough
714
00:27:26,767 --> 00:27:29,400
or you just got there
and you think you're finished?
715
00:27:29,467 --> 00:27:31,967
If you look right here,
I'm in tails.
716
00:27:31,967 --> 00:27:34,266
-And you got, what,
four jars, five jars.
-[Kelley] Yep.
717
00:27:34,266 --> 00:27:36,200
I can say
I'm much happier with
718
00:27:36,266 --> 00:27:38,266
-what I'm turning in today...
-Mmm-hmm.
719
00:27:38,266 --> 00:27:40,266
...versus what
I turned in last time.
720
00:27:40,266 --> 00:27:42,567
-Well that's a credit.
-For sure. Yeah.
721
00:27:42,567 --> 00:27:44,200
-Right, well, good luck.
-[Kelley] Thank you.
722
00:27:44,266 --> 00:27:46,100
-Can't wait to see your jar.
-Thank you, sir.
723
00:27:47,200 --> 00:27:48,667
-How are you, Mykala?
-Hello.
724
00:27:48,667 --> 00:27:50,367
[Tim] I see
you're still running here.
725
00:27:50,367 --> 00:27:51,767
That is a pretty clean jar
726
00:27:51,767 --> 00:27:54,166
and I see you've got
a few more jars over here,
727
00:27:54,166 --> 00:27:55,767
like 10 more jars over here.
728
00:27:55,767 --> 00:27:57,100
[Mykala] Yep.
729
00:27:57,100 --> 00:27:59,266
Now, what is going on
over here with all this
right here?
730
00:27:59,266 --> 00:28:01,100
-[Mykala] Had a couple
of little leaks.
-[Tim] Yeah?
731
00:28:01,100 --> 00:28:02,667
Thankfully, caught it early.
732
00:28:02,667 --> 00:28:05,100
[Tim] You know,
this is a little bit odd
for you because
733
00:28:05,166 --> 00:28:07,867
-you're a legal distiller
working at a legal distillery.
-Yep.
734
00:28:07,867 --> 00:28:10,800
Do you all have
a lot of this oatmeal
in a big bag or...
735
00:28:10,867 --> 00:28:12,166
-No.
-So, if you have a leak,
736
00:28:12,166 --> 00:28:14,000
-you probably
just call maintenance.
-That's right. Yep.
737
00:28:14,066 --> 00:28:16,200
-Well, I am the maintenance,
but, yeah.
-Oh, you the maintenance.
738
00:28:16,266 --> 00:28:17,667
-So you get your wrenches.
-Mmm-hmm.
739
00:28:17,667 --> 00:28:18,967
Okay.
740
00:28:19,000 --> 00:28:21,266
How about some
bead-reading skill?
You still practicing?
741
00:28:21,266 --> 00:28:23,166
I kinda just do it by taste.
742
00:28:23,166 --> 00:28:25,266
So you may give us 123...
743
00:28:25,266 --> 00:28:26,667
It may knock your socks off,
744
00:28:26,667 --> 00:28:28,967
-but I hope it doesn't
set your hair on fire.
-Yep. Yep.
745
00:28:28,967 --> 00:28:31,367
All right, girls,
you got 30 minutes left.
746
00:28:32,600 --> 00:28:33,767
[Kelley exhales]
747
00:28:33,767 --> 00:28:36,367
I think... Okay, I'm gonna try
to blend, I guess, a few.
748
00:28:37,767 --> 00:28:39,600
I'm working with a blended jar
749
00:28:39,667 --> 00:28:42,000
because I just wanna
have the option.
750
00:28:42,000 --> 00:28:43,467
But then I've also got a jar
751
00:28:43,467 --> 00:28:47,867
of really, just,
pure, beautiful hearts.
752
00:28:47,867 --> 00:28:51,166
So I'm going back and forth
between turning in
either one of those.
753
00:28:51,166 --> 00:28:53,000
What if I drop one of these?
754
00:28:53,000 --> 00:28:55,166
Oh, my gosh.
755
00:28:55,166 --> 00:28:57,900
-Don't put that juju
on yourself.
-Butterfingers.
756
00:29:00,667 --> 00:29:03,000
I have a pretty good palate
when it comes to blending
757
00:29:03,066 --> 00:29:07,867
and I've gotten
really good feedback
on my blending skills so far.
758
00:29:07,867 --> 00:29:11,300
So I plan on presenting
a blended jar.
759
00:29:19,767 --> 00:29:21,066
How you feeling?
760
00:29:21,066 --> 00:29:22,367
Ooo, red in the face.
761
00:29:22,367 --> 00:29:23,367
Me too.
762
00:29:24,367 --> 00:29:25,767
Some sampling going on.
763
00:29:34,767 --> 00:29:37,000
What I'm feeling right now
is sheer panic
764
00:29:37,066 --> 00:29:41,266
because, for a while,
I really had my heart
set on this blended jar
765
00:29:41,266 --> 00:29:46,166
and now my gut is telling me
that's not what I need
to turn in.
766
00:29:46,166 --> 00:29:49,400
Everything in my body
and my spirit is telling me
767
00:29:49,467 --> 00:29:52,200
there's just
something off about it.
768
00:29:58,734 --> 00:30:01,033
What I'm feeling right now
is sheer panic
769
00:30:01,033 --> 00:30:05,200
because, for a while,
I really had my heart
set on this blended jar
770
00:30:05,266 --> 00:30:09,200
and now my gut is telling me
that's not what I need
to turn in.
771
00:30:09,266 --> 00:30:11,066
So I'm not gonna
use the blended jar
772
00:30:11,066 --> 00:30:14,734
because there's just
something off about it.
773
00:30:14,734 --> 00:30:17,100
Everything in my body
and my sprit
774
00:30:17,100 --> 00:30:19,266
is telling me
to turn in the unblended jar.
775
00:30:24,166 --> 00:30:25,867
I think I'm all done,
so I'm gonna shut her down.
776
00:30:25,934 --> 00:30:27,500
I think I got
the jar that I want, so...
777
00:30:28,166 --> 00:30:29,600
Shut her down, honey.
778
00:30:31,200 --> 00:30:34,934
I'm feeling
a little bit nervous,
but hopeful.
779
00:30:38,967 --> 00:30:40,467
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
780
00:30:40,467 --> 00:30:41,767
Okay. Walk away.
781
00:30:42,467 --> 00:30:44,867
-Walk away.
-[Mykala groans]
782
00:30:44,934 --> 00:30:47,100
[Digger] Right, ladies,
you're down to five minutes.
783
00:30:47,100 --> 00:30:48,467
If you ain't
where you need to be,
784
00:30:48,467 --> 00:30:51,033
you'd better be
getting there fast.
785
00:30:51,033 --> 00:30:53,867
I think I'm actually ready.
Kelley, are you ready?
786
00:30:53,867 --> 00:30:55,100
[Kelley] I'm done.
787
00:30:55,100 --> 00:30:57,033
Do you wanna
turn 'em in together?
788
00:30:57,033 --> 00:31:00,066
-I do. You ready too?
-Yep.
789
00:31:00,066 --> 00:31:01,467
[kisses] Kiss her goodbye.
790
00:31:04,867 --> 00:31:06,066
Great job, lady.
791
00:31:07,667 --> 00:31:08,934
Gentlemen, we're ready.
792
00:31:08,934 --> 00:31:11,100
-Bring 'em in, girls.
-Bring 'em on in.
793
00:31:11,967 --> 00:31:13,367
[Digger] That's what
I like to see.
794
00:31:13,367 --> 00:31:15,867
You both still wanna win,
but you're rooting for
the other one.
795
00:31:15,934 --> 00:31:17,567
Mmm-hmm.
796
00:31:17,567 --> 00:31:20,667
All right, ladies,
you know the drill by now.
797
00:31:20,667 --> 00:31:22,100
We're gonna go taste,
deliberate,
798
00:31:22,767 --> 00:31:23,767
taste a little more,
799
00:31:23,834 --> 00:31:26,033
and once we reach a decision,
800
00:31:26,033 --> 00:31:28,367
we'll come back and you know
which one of y'all
801
00:31:28,367 --> 00:31:32,100
is gonna be crowned
tournament champion.
802
00:31:32,100 --> 00:31:34,734
Until then, y'all feel free
to sit back at your stations.
803
00:31:34,734 --> 00:31:36,967
Clean up, neaten up,
or have a little drink.
804
00:31:37,767 --> 00:31:38,967
Good luck to both of you.
805
00:31:38,967 --> 00:31:40,734
You've both been
fantastic competitors.
806
00:31:40,734 --> 00:31:42,133
-Thank you, gentlemen.
-Thank you.
807
00:31:42,133 --> 00:31:43,567
-Good luck, ladies.
-[Mykala] Thanks!
808
00:31:50,467 --> 00:31:52,834
All right, guys, you know,
honestly, what we've got here
809
00:31:52,834 --> 00:31:55,600
is two really, really
dangerous distillers,
810
00:31:55,667 --> 00:31:58,066
a legal one
and an outlaw distiller.
811
00:31:58,066 --> 00:31:59,467
Both of 'em, if you remember,
812
00:31:59,467 --> 00:32:01,667
got eliminated
in the first round
813
00:32:01,667 --> 00:32:04,200
-on their original challenges.
-Original challenge.
814
00:32:04,266 --> 00:32:07,400
But I think they've both got
a chip on their shoulder
815
00:32:07,467 --> 00:32:09,567
and they have something
to prove to us
816
00:32:09,567 --> 00:32:11,667
-and they're proving it.
-Yeah.
817
00:32:11,667 --> 00:32:13,166
They run the still
like they own it.
818
00:32:13,166 --> 00:32:14,266
They do.
819
00:32:14,266 --> 00:32:17,467
Yeah, we know, definitely,
from watching these ladies
820
00:32:17,467 --> 00:32:19,867
from the beginning
of other challenges
821
00:32:19,934 --> 00:32:22,166
that, no doubt,
these ladies can distill
822
00:32:22,166 --> 00:32:24,266
about anything
you put in front of 'em.
823
00:32:24,266 --> 00:32:25,867
-Right.
-Oh, no question.
824
00:32:25,867 --> 00:32:28,300
You know, and we've seen it.
We've seen it.
825
00:32:28,367 --> 00:32:30,500
We've got two jars
good on the table...
826
00:32:30,567 --> 00:32:33,000
-[Mark] Exactly.
-...but one is gonna be
your Master Distiller.
827
00:32:33,667 --> 00:32:35,600
Well, we'll start, damn it.
828
00:32:35,667 --> 00:32:37,200
Let's start with Kelley
over there.
829
00:32:37,266 --> 00:32:39,166
Go right ahead there,
whiskey pusher.
830
00:32:39,166 --> 00:32:40,867
-All right.
-Yeah, Kelley's the outlaw.
831
00:32:40,867 --> 00:32:42,467
Kelley's, what, a half-jar.
832
00:32:45,934 --> 00:32:47,467
I think it don't have
any proof in it.
833
00:32:48,367 --> 00:32:50,166
I don't see no proof.
834
00:32:50,166 --> 00:32:53,133
I'm overjoyed. I'm so stoked.
It's been...
835
00:32:53,133 --> 00:32:55,734
-I could, like, flip a table
right now, but I won't.
-I know. Like [shrieks].
836
00:32:55,734 --> 00:32:57,467
[Kelley] I'm happy.
837
00:32:57,467 --> 00:32:59,500
It was definitely
the clearest jar
838
00:32:59,567 --> 00:33:01,467
and the best that I had.
839
00:33:01,467 --> 00:33:04,767
I mean, that right there
is a perfect nose.
840
00:33:04,767 --> 00:33:06,066
It's got a lot of flavor.
841
00:33:06,066 --> 00:33:07,500
[Digger] I think
it's really good.
842
00:33:08,166 --> 00:33:10,033
It's very, very drinkable.
843
00:33:10,033 --> 00:33:11,934
-[Tim] She got a poker face.
-[Mark] She does.
844
00:33:11,934 --> 00:33:13,834
I'm thinking
that's about 80 proof.
845
00:33:13,834 --> 00:33:15,767
[Mark] Yeah.
I'll go along with that.
846
00:33:15,767 --> 00:33:19,834
You know, grappa can be
35 to 60% alcohol,
847
00:33:19,834 --> 00:33:22,000
so that's 70 to 120 proof.
848
00:33:22,000 --> 00:33:23,400
So that's a wide range.
849
00:33:23,467 --> 00:33:25,967
It's got
tremendous flavor, though.
850
00:33:25,967 --> 00:33:27,266
Lot of flavor.
851
00:33:27,266 --> 00:33:30,200
I've got no problem with it.
I think it's fantastic.
852
00:33:30,266 --> 00:33:32,934
And, honestly, better than
the grappa we made.
853
00:33:32,934 --> 00:33:35,367
It's way better
than the grappa we made.
854
00:33:35,367 --> 00:33:38,467
Well, let's look at
what we're comparing it to.
855
00:33:42,033 --> 00:33:43,300
Very clear.
856
00:33:43,367 --> 00:33:46,200
She brought her A game
with this one, I feel certain.
857
00:33:49,000 --> 00:33:50,166
Holy moly!
858
00:33:50,166 --> 00:33:51,834
That's got
a lot of alcohol in it.
859
00:33:52,400 --> 00:33:54,200
-110?
-Yeah.
860
00:33:54,266 --> 00:33:55,266
[Mykala exhales]
861
00:33:56,600 --> 00:33:58,166
How you feeling?
862
00:33:58,166 --> 00:34:02,166
I was a little bit worried
that the flavor of the raisins
863
00:34:02,166 --> 00:34:04,867
was gonna be
kinda weird and off,
864
00:34:04,934 --> 00:34:08,567
but I'm glad that
I was able to, like,
pull something out of it.
865
00:34:08,567 --> 00:34:11,467
So I'm proud of
what I've done.
866
00:34:11,467 --> 00:34:12,767
That's all I can hope for.
867
00:34:13,567 --> 00:34:14,867
Total different smell.
868
00:34:16,200 --> 00:34:18,000
It don't smell like grapes,
does it?
869
00:34:18,000 --> 00:34:20,734
It's got an off aroma.
870
00:34:20,734 --> 00:34:23,567
-Kelley's has more of
a grape nose on it.
-Yeah.
871
00:34:23,567 --> 00:34:26,867
Yeah, Mykala's has
a raisin nose on it.
872
00:34:26,934 --> 00:34:28,367
Oh, it tastes good, though.
873
00:34:28,367 --> 00:34:29,867
Uh-huh-huh.
874
00:34:29,934 --> 00:34:31,834
-It tastes really good.
-[Digger] Oh, yes, it does.
875
00:34:31,834 --> 00:34:33,567
It don't taste like 110 proof.
876
00:34:33,567 --> 00:34:35,266
-It tastes like 90 proof.
-Yeah.
877
00:34:35,266 --> 00:34:37,367
And then it's got
that dry finish.
878
00:34:37,367 --> 00:34:40,467
-It tastes really good
is what it tastes like.
-Yeah, boy.
879
00:34:40,467 --> 00:34:43,667
But I'm not crazy about
the nose on it.
880
00:34:43,667 --> 00:34:46,734
You know,
she put all of those raisins
into the thumper
881
00:34:46,734 --> 00:34:48,767
and that's where
you get the nose.
882
00:34:48,767 --> 00:34:52,467
If she would've just
put hot mash
that she had in the still...
883
00:34:52,467 --> 00:34:54,066
Wouldn't have tasted
no different.
884
00:34:54,066 --> 00:34:55,367
We just got the nose now
885
00:34:55,367 --> 00:34:58,367
because she put
the solids of the raisins
in the thumper.
886
00:34:58,367 --> 00:35:02,467
I like 'em both.
Them ladies have done
an excellent job.
887
00:35:02,467 --> 00:35:04,567
Gentlemen, we got a dilemma.
888
00:35:04,567 --> 00:35:06,367
Well, we knew
we was gonna have this.
889
00:35:06,367 --> 00:35:09,100
When you got
two good distillers,
that's what happens.
890
00:35:09,100 --> 00:35:10,734
It don't matter
if they're outlaw or legal,
891
00:35:10,734 --> 00:35:12,100
if they're both good
they're good.
892
00:35:13,166 --> 00:35:15,266
You know, you look at Kelley's
893
00:35:15,266 --> 00:35:16,967
and, yeah, she's low on proof,
894
00:35:16,967 --> 00:35:20,567
but she's still
within the range that would
qualify it as a grappa.
895
00:35:20,567 --> 00:35:21,600
-Mmm-hmm.
-Yeah.
896
00:35:21,667 --> 00:35:23,100
And Mykala is as well.
897
00:35:23,100 --> 00:35:25,667
We gotta take proof
off the table here, guys,
898
00:35:25,667 --> 00:35:27,400
'cause they both
meet criteria for proof.
899
00:35:27,467 --> 00:35:29,467
[Digger] That's where
I'm going with this.
900
00:35:29,467 --> 00:35:32,166
One lacks the nose,
one's got the nose,
901
00:35:32,166 --> 00:35:34,066
and then they've both
got the flavor.
902
00:35:34,066 --> 00:35:36,600
One is a little bit better
than the other, I think.
903
00:35:36,667 --> 00:35:37,667
I agree.
904
00:35:38,200 --> 00:35:39,600
We all together, then?
905
00:35:39,667 --> 00:35:41,266
I think so.
906
00:35:41,266 --> 00:35:44,000
Well, let's go get it
while we can go find the door.
907
00:35:44,000 --> 00:35:45,100
Yeah.
908
00:35:50,367 --> 00:35:51,967
When they gave us the rundown
909
00:35:51,967 --> 00:35:54,967
on what we were gonna be
expected to do,
910
00:35:54,967 --> 00:35:58,233
as I kept reading the list
and it kept going longer,
911
00:35:58,233 --> 00:36:00,967
I was like,
"And what? And what?"
912
00:36:00,967 --> 00:36:04,066
-Yeah.
-And also, [exhales].
913
00:36:04,066 --> 00:36:05,233
It was definitely a lot,
914
00:36:05,233 --> 00:36:07,767
but I think we both
performed really well
915
00:36:07,767 --> 00:36:10,667
and rose to the occasion,
like, one and two
the whole time.
916
00:36:10,667 --> 00:36:12,667
-Yeah and nobody else
did win anything.
-[Mykala] Nope.
917
00:36:12,667 --> 00:36:14,100
-It was just you and me.
-Yeah.
918
00:36:14,100 --> 00:36:15,567
I never even
thought about that.
919
00:36:15,567 --> 00:36:18,467
We powered through it, baby.
We really did.
920
00:36:18,467 --> 00:36:19,500
Sorry, boys.
921
00:36:20,834 --> 00:36:22,233
Sorry, not sorry!
922
00:36:22,233 --> 00:36:23,266
[both laughing]
923
00:36:24,166 --> 00:36:25,400
I wanted it to be me and you
924
00:36:25,467 --> 00:36:27,133
-and then it was!
-[Mykala] I did too. I know.
925
00:36:27,133 --> 00:36:28,767
Yeah. And, like,
I didn't believe it
926
00:36:28,834 --> 00:36:30,667
and then look what we did.
Look what we manifested.
927
00:36:30,667 --> 00:36:32,133
I'm really, really
happy it's us.
928
00:36:32,133 --> 00:36:35,166
Like, no matter who wins,
I'm a happy camper.
929
00:36:35,233 --> 00:36:36,233
[Kelley] Me too.
930
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:38,600
Bam.
931
00:36:41,767 --> 00:36:43,667
-Cheers. Great job.
-Thanks.
932
00:36:43,667 --> 00:36:45,066
-Love you to death.
-Love you.
933
00:36:45,066 --> 00:36:46,667
-You're my bestie, baby.
-Yeah.
934
00:36:53,567 --> 00:36:55,266
All right, well,
come up and get your jars.
935
00:37:00,767 --> 00:37:03,000
Well, all I can say
across the board is "Wow."
936
00:37:04,600 --> 00:37:06,500
You know, we knew
it was gonna be tough,
937
00:37:06,567 --> 00:37:08,667
but we didn't know
how tough it was gonna be.
938
00:37:10,367 --> 00:37:11,567
Now, think about this, guys.
939
00:37:12,567 --> 00:37:14,834
Oregon, legal.
940
00:37:15,567 --> 00:37:17,567
Kentucky, outlaw.
941
00:37:17,567 --> 00:37:20,567
You both
come into this challenge
against each other.
942
00:37:20,567 --> 00:37:23,133
And this is not every day
that this happens
943
00:37:23,133 --> 00:37:25,367
that an outlaw and legal
944
00:37:25,367 --> 00:37:27,934
come together
as happy as you are.
945
00:37:27,934 --> 00:37:30,033
Both of you, very special
946
00:37:30,033 --> 00:37:32,400
and should be proud of
where you're standing today.
947
00:37:33,033 --> 00:37:34,066
So, here we go.
948
00:37:34,066 --> 00:37:36,333
Mykala, flavor,
949
00:37:37,266 --> 00:37:39,667
I'm telling you
it's all in there.
950
00:37:39,734 --> 00:37:41,066
Finished dry
951
00:37:41,066 --> 00:37:43,934
and levelled off well
on the palate front to back.
952
00:37:43,934 --> 00:37:45,967
Mykala, great job.
953
00:37:45,967 --> 00:37:48,667
And it's a really
smooth drink.
954
00:37:48,667 --> 00:37:50,467
Little different on the nose.
955
00:37:50,467 --> 00:37:53,667
The nose wasn't really
what I expected
956
00:37:53,734 --> 00:37:57,367
and, you know, maybe it's
because of the raisins.
957
00:37:57,367 --> 00:37:59,667
But you did a wonderful job
running your still.
958
00:37:59,734 --> 00:38:01,867
You're not used to a thumper,
959
00:38:01,867 --> 00:38:05,500
but I think that
you've acclimated yourself
very well to one.
960
00:38:06,133 --> 00:38:07,266
[Tim] So, Mykala,
961
00:38:07,333 --> 00:38:09,266
now, your proof
is really, really good.
962
00:38:09,333 --> 00:38:10,767
Outstanding. I like it.
963
00:38:10,834 --> 00:38:12,066
Real clear jar.
964
00:38:12,066 --> 00:38:13,567
And it tastes really good.
965
00:38:13,567 --> 00:38:14,834
Great job.
966
00:38:14,834 --> 00:38:16,233
Thank you.
967
00:38:16,233 --> 00:38:18,367
Then we come to Kelley,
968
00:38:18,367 --> 00:38:20,500
the wildcat in the bunch.
969
00:38:20,567 --> 00:38:22,266
[Mark] You didn't
run a lot of jars,
970
00:38:22,333 --> 00:38:25,667
but, you know, this contest
is not about quantity.
971
00:38:25,667 --> 00:38:29,266
It's about a good turn-in,
drinkable jar
972
00:38:29,266 --> 00:38:31,033
that's what
it's supposed to be.
973
00:38:31,934 --> 00:38:33,033
Really great nose.
974
00:38:33,033 --> 00:38:35,767
A lower proof,
but it carried through well.
975
00:38:35,767 --> 00:38:38,100
Lower proof usually brings
a lot of flavor.
976
00:38:38,100 --> 00:38:39,266
And it did.
977
00:38:40,166 --> 00:38:42,567
You knew exactly when
to make that cut.
978
00:38:42,567 --> 00:38:44,567
I mean, it was just "Pow!"
you know?
979
00:38:44,567 --> 00:38:47,233
You knew
when you got into that
that that was a grappa.
980
00:38:47,767 --> 00:38:49,066
[Tim] Kelley,
981
00:38:49,066 --> 00:38:50,567
your proof
is a little bit lower,
982
00:38:51,166 --> 00:38:52,967
but you brought flavor
983
00:38:52,967 --> 00:38:54,734
and your brought
the perfect jar
984
00:38:54,734 --> 00:38:57,000
that you thought
was the best jar
985
00:38:57,000 --> 00:38:58,667
and I think
it tastes really good.
986
00:38:58,667 --> 00:38:59,834
Thank you.
987
00:38:59,834 --> 00:39:01,500
Fine job
on both y'all's parts.
988
00:39:03,500 --> 00:39:04,800
All right, guys,
989
00:39:04,800 --> 00:39:08,166
the dirty deed, I guess,
if you wanna put it,
falls to me.
990
00:39:08,233 --> 00:39:11,133
And, you know, normally,
it does really bother me,
991
00:39:11,133 --> 00:39:14,066
but, you know, I've spent
a lot of time with you two
992
00:39:14,066 --> 00:39:16,600
and I know that,
whichever direction this goes,
993
00:39:16,667 --> 00:39:19,066
that you two are at peace
in your souls with that.
994
00:39:22,367 --> 00:39:23,834
It's never an easy job here,
995
00:39:23,834 --> 00:39:26,233
but there can only be
one tournament champion
996
00:39:33,467 --> 00:39:36,033
and, Kelley, you are
that next Master Distiller.
997
00:39:36,033 --> 00:39:37,567
Congratulations, young lady.
998
00:39:39,934 --> 00:39:42,266
[Kelley] I am happy.
Over the moon.
999
00:39:42,333 --> 00:39:44,667
You know, being the winner
1000
00:39:44,667 --> 00:39:48,500
of the first Master Distiller
1001
00:39:48,567 --> 00:39:50,600
where it's two women
at the end...
1002
00:39:50,667 --> 00:39:54,066
Um, I just wanna
inspire more women
to get into this industry
1003
00:39:54,066 --> 00:39:57,367
and to trust themselves
and to be taken seriously.
1004
00:39:58,133 --> 00:39:59,166
Ain't that good?
1005
00:40:00,500 --> 00:40:01,567
[exhales] [bleep]
1006
00:40:03,767 --> 00:40:04,767
[Kelley exhales]
1007
00:40:05,767 --> 00:40:08,467
[exhales] Thank you.
1008
00:40:08,467 --> 00:40:11,233
I was super appreciative
of the judges' comments
1009
00:40:11,233 --> 00:40:14,667
about how I nailed my proof,
nailed the flavor.
1010
00:40:14,667 --> 00:40:17,967
I think that it shows
how far I've come.
1011
00:40:17,967 --> 00:40:20,667
And being able
to rely on my senses
1012
00:40:20,734 --> 00:40:24,734
and be able
to execute the things
that I'm shooting for...
1013
00:40:24,734 --> 00:40:26,500
I made it farther
than I did last time.
1014
00:40:26,567 --> 00:40:28,467
And I'm always willing
to come back
1015
00:40:28,467 --> 00:40:31,266
and, you know,
next time I'll just win it.
1016
00:40:31,333 --> 00:40:33,767
Just so you know,
at any given time,
1017
00:40:33,834 --> 00:40:35,667
I will be honored
to run liquor
1018
00:40:35,667 --> 00:40:38,166
with either one of you
or both of you.
1019
00:40:39,166 --> 00:40:41,133
I'll see you soon.
1020
00:40:41,133 --> 00:40:43,000
[Kelley] I think it's cool
that I got another chance
1021
00:40:43,000 --> 00:40:44,834
to showcase
my talent and skills.
1022
00:40:44,834 --> 00:40:47,367
I've never had
so many curveballs
thrown at me,
1023
00:40:47,367 --> 00:40:51,367
um, so many
wild-ass challenges.
1024
00:40:51,367 --> 00:40:53,767
I mean, I've won
on the outlaw side.
1025
00:40:53,834 --> 00:40:55,734
I've come back.
I brought my A game this time.
1026
00:40:55,734 --> 00:40:58,567
I've done everything that
I said that I was gonna do.
1027
00:40:58,567 --> 00:40:59,867
So I'm proud of myself.
1028
00:41:00,767 --> 00:41:03,467
I am the Master Distiller.
1029
00:41:03,467 --> 00:41:06,100
Now y'all get on out of here
before you make us
start crying.
1030
00:41:06,100 --> 00:41:07,500
-[Tim] Get out of here!
-All right.
1031
00:41:07,567 --> 00:41:09,166
[Mark] Get!
Before we're all squalling.
1032
00:41:09,166 --> 00:41:11,133
An outlaw wins.
1033
00:41:11,133 --> 00:41:13,367
[Kelley] I might need to,
like, sit down.
1034
00:41:13,367 --> 00:41:14,567
[Digger] That was great.
1035
00:41:14,567 --> 00:41:17,667
You know, guys,
outlaw versus legal...
1036
00:41:18,400 --> 00:41:20,166
I mean, the outlaws won today,
1037
00:41:21,166 --> 00:41:22,967
but what's gonna happen
in the future?
1038
00:41:22,967 --> 00:41:24,967
You've been on
both sides of it.
1039
00:41:24,967 --> 00:41:27,367
-[Digger] Outlaw's
gonna win again.
-I've been on both sides.
1040
00:41:27,367 --> 00:41:29,400
-[Digger] Let's go hunt a jar.
-[Tim] Oh!
