LONDON, Printed by RICHARD BISHOP. MDCXXXIX. Ornate border TO The Company of DISTILLERS OF LONDON. WHereas our Sovereign Lord the King's most Excellent Majesty hath been graciously pleased, by His Royal Letters Patents under the Great Seal of England; To Incorporate (together with us) the Distillers etc. in and about London, into one entire body politic, and Company of Distillers of London. And amongst divers powers and immunities unto us and our successors by the said Letters Patents granted, His Majesty hath therein given special command, That a Book of Rules and Directions concerning Distillation of Strong-waters, etc. and making Vinegars, etc. should be compiled, and by us approved and allowed: as by the said Letters Patents or Charter of Incorporation, more at large doth appear. In obedience to his Highness said Commands, this present Book hath been composed, entitled THE DISTILLER OF LONDON. Which Book and the Rules and Directions therein contained, we have examined and corrected, and do well approve and allow of the same, and every part thereof; signifying and declaring, to the whole Company of Distillers and their successors, (and whomsoever else the same may concern) That the Rules and Directions therein contained, are good and warrantable; and may safely be followed and practised, by all the members of this Company, and their successors, in preparing, composing, distilling, and making the several kinds and sorts of wares therein nominated and expressed, (and others of like nature) and these several kinds and sorts of wares and merchantdizes, being accordingly, duly ordered and made; cannot be otherwise, than good, sound, and warrantably merchantable; and such as may very well serve, to and for most uses and occasions, whereunto any of those kinds and sorts of wares and commodities, are or may be required; aswell for spending within any of His Majesty's Realms, Dominions, and Plantations, etc. as for victualling of Ships for any voyage or undertaking whatsoever, or wheresoever: and for transportation by way of merchandise, into any the parts beyond the Seas, in the usual way of commerce and trade. In confirmation of the reality hereof, we have hereunto subscribed our Names. THEODORUS de MAYERNE, Regiarum Majestatum Medicus primarius. THOMAS CADEMAN Medicus Regineus.

And to every particular Member of the same: The Present MASTER, FOUNDER, Wardens, & Assistants of that Company, wish increase of Knowledge, and Endless Happiness. IT hath been observed in all ages, that the most excellent of Humane Arts, that ever were invented by the ingenuity of Men of the most infallible judgements, that even those Arts have not retained their first perfection longer, than they have been confined within the limits of their Authors, or like Artists practice. For no sooner have they been divulged abroad, amongst the inconsiderate multitude, and so become the subject of their employments, but those Arts have been thereby exposed to eminent danger, of being corrupted through blind Ignorance, or wilful Error. Among the rest, (as a hereditary evil incident to all Arts) it may as truly be said of this Art and Mystery, the subject of our discourse; for no sooner was the practice thereof, taken up as the last refuge of men inexpert, and of decayed fortunes: (who have (in all times) been ushered in, and instructed by such as themselves.) But forthwith it fell extremely short of its former excellent esteem, and true perfection; and by degrees is grown so deformed, that Artists either do not, or rather are ashamed to acknowledge it, to be the same thing, so strangely is it transformed. But our intentions are not to obraid the ignorance or folly of any, but rather endeavour the information & direction of such of our members (as wanting the true knowledge of this Art) have run into errors and absordities in their practices. And for our more orderly proceeding in that behalf, have first made diligent search, to discover and find out the causes of these confused disorders, both in the trade, and amongst the practitioners. And find them principally to arise from want of power to regulate the true professors, and means to suppress, or at least stop the current of the disorderly and inordinate intrusion of Interlopers into the practice of this Art: who by their preposterous ways of working, and frequent use of base and unsound materials, have brought scandal, not only upon the works of this Art, (the wares) but also on the Art, and Artists themselves. For suppression and future prevention of such delinquents, and their erroneous ways; and relief, and reformation, of the present DISTILLERS, and their lawful successors. His Majesty hath been graciously pleased, to supply us with the means to perform both: By Incorporating us, into one entire body politic, and granting us and our successors, powers and immunities, tending to reformation, and good government for time to come. And being thus enabled by his Majesty's favour: and in obedience also to his Highness' Royal Commands, (in the said Letters Patents) We have prepared and made ready, these Rules and Directions following, aptly fitted and composed, for the imitation and practice of all the members of this Company, and their successors. And having therein rejected and utterly forbidden, the use of base unsound materials and ingredients, and taken away the abusive use, or misimployment, of those that are sound and warrantable. It now remains that you, together with us, do henceforth yield all ready conformity, to these instructions and directions, and rightly and duly put the same in practice. And as we, (with constant resolutions) have hitherto undergone the care and trouble, of procuring things tending to reformation and settled government of the Company; so now we expect (as justly we may) that you will second us, cheerfully with your best abilities, to perfect and establish this good work. In this book we have purposely incisted, principally on the most inferior and ordinary sorts of wares, such as are most usually required for trade and commerce, foreign and domistick. And therein have applied ourselves, to accommodate all sorts of people, that shall have occasion to use our wares. And here it is not amiss by way of admonition, to give a touch of what you are (by our Charter and Ordinances) strictly required and enjoined to observe and do: that is, That neither the present Members of this Company, nor any of them, nor any of our successors at any time hereafter, under any pretence whatsoever: Do presume to distil or make any of the kinds or sorts of wares here expressed, or any other sorts of like nature, any way meaner, weaker, or otherways inferior to those here prescribed. (For, by yielding to humour some sorts of people in that particular, of making poor conditioned wares, it hath been the very bane of the Trade, and scandal to the Art, and Artists.) But you are not denied the making of any of these, or like kinds and sorts of wares and merchandizes (according to Art) as much better, richer, or stronger, as you please. And to that purpose we have here made provision, in some competent manner, to furnish you with Rules and Directions to distil and make richer and higher prized wares and merchandizes of those kinds: as also for enriching and bettering of divers of those meanest sorts here set down; either by addition of greater quantities of the same, or more sorts of ingredients; to the Rules whereunto those additions are properly referred: unto which, if any shall yet desire to add more, or other ingredients; they ought to be persons so qualified, and of such abilities, as are able to give an Artlike account for their so doing: others, by tampering, pretending to amend, will rather endanger spoiling all. We are here to admonish both our present members and successors also, to disclaim the abusive practices of some of the professors of our Art: who, either by giving their undeserving wares, appellations of note, proper only to the best approved Authors rules and compositions, of this kind, purposely to delude the buyers, by such their false glosses; or else by adding to their warrantable wares, impertinent (if not ridiculous) titles: to the former (or worse) ends. These abuses (being of scandalous nature) if henceforth any shall presume to commit, they are to expect sharp reprehension, if not punishment, for their folly and deceit. Also all the present members of the Company, and our successors, are to take special notice, That they are by the Ordinances, as also by their Oaths, strictly required, To place the true and proper names and titles of every sore of wares (made ready and fitted for sale) respectively, upon each particular vessel containing those wares, standing in their Shops or elsewhere: As also, on all such vessels of wares as shall be put up for sale, or sold; in some evident place, & legible manner, that it may be visible to all whom it may concern: and that they also place their own proper Mark (allowed them out of the Hall) on all the vessels containing the wares they sell, in manner as by our Charter and Ordinances is required. And now to return to such as desire to imitate the best approved Authors in their titles; let not such do those Authors the injury, to deprive them of the least jot of the true compositions proper to those titles; nor altar the nature of their excellent things, by unartlike or preposterous working. If you vary in any particular from their Rules, be sure to add to the excellency and goodness of the thing, else let their prescriptions be entire: otherwise you may undergo a censure, and deservedly suffer for your errors. And here our duty requires us all (that are Distillers by profession and Trade) to acknowledge with thankfulness, the great care and industry (in adding of divers excellent Rules hereunto, and circumspect perusal and correction of this Book) performed by the Right Worshipful Sir Theodore de Mayerne Knight, First Physician to the King and Queens most Excellent Majesty, Founder and perpetual principal Assistant of this Company of Distillers: And the Right Worshipful Doctor Thomas Cademan, Physician to the Queens most Excellent Majesty, First, and present Master of the same Company. And now lest we frame our gate over large for our little City, we shall conclude with this one admonition, That seeing we have here forbidden the use of unsound materials and ingredients, and prescribed for use, only such as are sound and warrantable. If any member of this Company or their successors, having these Directions (which all must have and observe, that intent to practise this Art) shall yet notwithstanding, make unmarchantable wares, of any of these kinds, (or any other of like nature) or wares any way inferior to these prescriptions: Such may deservedly, not only undergo the censure of palpable ignorance, or malicious wilfulness; but also justly suffer whatsoever by the Laws of the Kingdom, Ordinances of the Company, or otherwise, may be imposed or inflicted on them, for their delinquency. And so in assured confidence of the respective and willing conformity of you all, in all things; do bid you all, hearty farewell. THOMAS CADEMAN, Master. THEODORUS DE MAYERNE, Founder.

THE DISTILLER OF LONDON. OR, RULES and DIRECTIONS For extracting and drawing of LOW-WINES and SPIRITS, to be redistilled into RICH-SPIRITS, STRONG-WATERS, or AQUAVITAE. WHereas some of the Professors of Distillation in and about London, have heretofore usually drawn Strongwaters and Aquavitae, etc. out of Wines, Low-wines, and Small-spirits, etc. by one alone immediate extraction, operation, or distillation, (contrary to the most approved form of working in this our Art) and have been so opinionated of their own hereditary erroneous ways, that they have esteemed the manner and order here taught, to be altogether unnecessary and improvident, in that there is here required Redistillation, which they have ever thought to be superfluous: Not considering, that what they save by their seeming thrift, they lose double, in the excellency of their wares, and otherwise. Wherefore that such may not only acquit themselves of an aspersion of ignorance (not undeservedly cast upon them) but also vindicate both their own, and the Companies reputation, for time to come. The Directions following, are henceforth by them and every member of the Company, and their successors, duly and exactly to be observed and practised from time to time for ever hereafter. THat all wines, Lees of wines, Low-wines, and Spirits under proof, whatsoever, (intended for making of rich or high Spirits, Strong-waters, or Aquavitae etc.) Be first distilled, extracted, or drawn into strong proof spirit, (whereby they may be corrected and cured of their natural, harsh, distasteful, unsavoury, or evil qualities,) before they be compounded with ingredients, or extracted and drawn into rich or high Spirits, Strongwaters, or Aquavitae; according to Art, and as is required in the ensuing Rules. ANd because many gross absurdities have been frequently practised in adulterating some, and abusing others, of the materials used in Distillation, and otherwise by DISTILLERS, by such as only, respect their own particular gain; regarding neither the profit or credit of DISTILLERS, that have been necessitated to make use of such their ill-conditioned wares: Wherhfore, that these grievances may be removed for time to come; The Directions following, are strictly to be observed and practised by all the members of this Company and their successors, from time to time for ever. THat no Afterworts or Wash (made by Brewers, etc.) called Blew-Iohn, nor musty unsavoury or unwholesome Tilts or Dregs of Beer or Ale; nor unwholesome or adulterated wines, or Lees of wines, nor unwholesome Sugarwaters; musty unsavoury or unwholesome returned Beer or Ale; nor rotten corrupt or unsavoury fruits, drugs, spices, herbs, seeds; nor any other ill conditioned materials of what kind soever, shall henceforth be distilled, extracted, or drawn into Small-spirits, or Low-wines, or be any other ways used, directly or indirectly, by any the members of this Company, or their successors, at any time hereafter for ever. ANd whereas of late times the small Spirits or Low-wines, made and sold aswell in and about London, as elsewhere in this Kingdom, have been generally complained of, for their mean, weak, and poor condition: whereby many inconveniences have fallen upon most of the DISTILLERS in general: And that not through the alone practices of such as have no just title to, or interest in, this Incorporation; but even by some of the DISTILLERS themselves, who (notwithstanding their pretences, of being necessitated thereunto) have justly deserved reproof, for yielding to be Actors in a thing of such ill consequence to DISTILLERS in general. Wherefore, that those abuses and disorders may now be taken away, and the like prevented for time to come, the ensuing Rule, is duly to be observed & practised. THat no Small-spirits or Low-wines, shall henceforth be distilled, extracted, or made, and be allowed to be sold, put to sale, or used, by any of the members of the Company, or their successors; But such only, as out of which, by one alone redistillation, extraction, or operation, may be produced in quantity, at least one third part thereof, of good strong Proof Spirit, such as is required in the Rules ensuing, for making rich or high Spirits, Strongwaters, or Aquavitae, etc. under such pains, penalties, and punishments, as by the Laws of the Kingdom, Ordinances or Orders of the Company, or otherwise; may be imposed or inflicted, on the contemners, neglecters, or opposers of these Directions.

RULES and DIRECTIONS for the Company of DISTILLERS of LONDON, in general: But more especially for such of them, as now do, or hereafter shall, make Vinegars, etc. WHereas upon due examination it hath plainly appeared; That many insufferable inconveniences have of late fall'n upon this Company and their Trade, in general; by reason of the disorderly and abusive expense and employment of Brewer's Afterworts (called Wash) Insomuch that thereby, not only those of this Company that have had no hand herein, but even the Distillers themselves that have been the Delinquents, have intolerably suffered both in their Reputation, and great decay of their Trades, by these their alone inconsiderate practices. For reformation of the present disorders and abuses, and future prevention of the like. These ensuing admonitions and directions, are strictly to be observed and practised. Viz. THat no Member or Members of this Company, or their Successors, nor any of them, at any time hereafter for ever, by any way or means whatsoever, (directly or indirectly) shall or may, use, dispose, convert or employ, any Afterworts (or Wash, made by Brewers or others) into Vinegar, Beere-egar, or Ale-egar, or either of them: or to or for any other use or employment whatsoever, except only to distil the same into Low-wines or Spirits, to be redistilled into proof Spirit, for the uses aforesaid, according to the true intent and meaning of these Directions. As they and every of them respect their oaths, by them taken (when they were made free, and received into this Incorporation) And will undergo the penalties provided, or to be provided, by the Ordinances of this Company, or otherwise, to be imposed or inflicted on the Contemners, Neglecters, or Opposers hereof. Rule I. PRovide three sweet tuns (or smaller cask,) place them orderly on scantlings; provide good sound white ♑. and such well conditioned liquid Materials as are proper for this use, Q. S. (not musty in any case.) Then number your tuns, 1. 2. 3. Fill tun, 1. with ♑. within, a. inches of the bungue, stop the bungue with cork, or wood very close, and let it stand, and in few days it will gather heat, then being conveniently hot, fill up the vessel within, v. inches of top full, with your liquid Materials, without Dregs. Stop it close again. And at that instant in like manner as before, fill tun, 2. with ♑. after a few days, that will be hot as the former was, then finding it conveniently hot, draw of tun, 1. and put it into tun, 2. and stop both close. At that present fill tun, 3. with ♑. and order it in every respect as you did the former. And when tuns, 1 & 3. have gathered heat sufficient, fill up tun, 1. with fresh liquor (as at first) and draw of tun, 2. and put it into tun, 3. and so let tun, 2. gather sufficient heat again. Then draw of tun, 1. and put it into tun, 2. And at that present, you may draw off tun, 3. and put it into a store Cask. for having passed, 3. times through the ♑. is thereby become to be, good merchantable ware. And so in like order, supply one Vessel from another, till you have finished your work, S.A. When all your liquid Materials are spent, so that you have no more to continue your work, then be sure your tuns stand near full, till you are provided of more liquor, to put upon your ♑. for if your ♑. (standing dry) should wax hot, you having nothing proper to supply the same, your ♑. will soon decay and be utterly spoilt. In summer or warm weather, the ♑. will gather sufficient heat in, n. or, v. days, but in winter it will require more time. Rule II. TAke ns. Qr: of good sound ♀. convert it into yss. □. of good serviceable ware (at the most) you must allow to this quantity, good sweet, ⚹. at least, ♓ ca And being well wrought S. A. put it into sweet Cask (sweet oil butts are best) fill them within, e. inches of the bungues (being laid upon scantlings in the sun) let not the head work over at the bungues, and it will sink to the bottom. Prepare little covers of wood fit to cover the bungues, and larger covers to lay over them, to defend it from rain falling into the Cask. Let the bungues stand open only when the sun shines hot upon the Cask, but in close or wet weather and nights, let both covers be always kept on. When the first head of the liquor is fall'n, then draw it from the Lee, into another clean sweet Cask. And so afterwards from Cask to Cask, as there shall be cause, till it come to perfection. Then draw it off into other sound cask, and so house it for use. The largest cask are the fittest to house and keep your wares in, for store. If your wares grow long and ropie, then put a fit quantity of, A. into it, work it well together, S. A. And it will grow short again.
