His winning performance showcased his deep expertise in culinary flavor profiles and high-proof distillation. During the episode's intense challenges, he successfully engineered three distinct moonshines designed to taste like a full "meal in a jar," which included: An appetizer moonshine featuring a complex fruit salad flavor profile. A main course moonshine built around a rich, savory brisket flavor. A dessert moonshine highlighting a strawberry rhubarb cheesecake profile. Meredith earned widespread praise from the judges for his bold, expertly balanced flavors and precise proofing, combining a traditional passion for home-brewing and distillation with professional-grade culinary creativity.

Words of wisdom with Alan Bishop
Esplicito
The distiller you are looking for is Alan Bishop (often preferring the title "Head Alchemist"). A highly respected and colorful figure in the craft spirits industry, Bishop is renowned for his deep knowledge of pre-prohibition style distilling, historical spirits (like authentic absinthe), and his roots in southern Indiana's illicit distilling heritage. Career & Old Homestead Connection Spirits of French Lick: Before his time at Old Homestead, Bishop spent eight highly acclaimed years as the Head Alchemist at Spirits of French Lick in southern Indiana, where he built a major reputation for innovative whiskeys and brandies. Old Homestead Distilling Co.: In April 2024, Bishop left French Lick to become the Head Distiller and partner at the newly unveiled Old Homestead Distilling Co. in Birdseye, Indiana (located in the Patoka Lake / "Alcohol Acres" area). The "Alchemist" Style: At Old Homestead, he leaned heavily into historical and terroir-focused spirits. He gained particular attention there for creating "Sunshine Spirits"—a unique, moonshine-style spirit crafted from malted and roasted sunflower seeds rather than standard grains. Current Ventures: True to his restless and independent spirit, Bishop eventually parted ways with the daily operations at Old Homestead to continue contract distilling, consulting, and launching independent spirit lines
