Not too far a stretch of the imagination to put distillation in Wales in the 12th centure, regardless of whether it actually existed then and there or not.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12508594597349248576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7652921.post-57143108606802761732011-07-25T08:01:57.883-05:002011-07-25T08:01:57.883-05:00Nice observation.
