Portland Mercury: A Taste for Equality
Kuehler described one of her first meetings with Troupe: “We were walking through this park, and Molly leaned in and said, ‘Have you heard of the rotovap?’” It’s a nerdy thing to be excited about: a vacuum still that allows distillation at low temperatures, extracting a fuller flavor. It also allows for (or forces) small distillations, so you can distill botanicals separately and blend them into a finely tuned gin.
