- Learned about the process of distilling bourbon
- Observed the different stages of fermentation and distillation
- Learned about the importance of aging in barrels
- Observed the effects of temperature and humidity on the aging process
- Learned about the chemistry behind the flavors and aromas of bourbon
- Observed the bottling and labeling process
Continued development could include experimenting with fermentation and distillation processes at home (with adult supervision), researching the history of bourbon and its impact on American culture, and exploring the science behind other types of alcohol production.
