I'll do another video in a bit about all the reasons why you SHOULD pursue a career as a distiller because it is a pretty cool job despite all the drawbacks I mention here.

I actually drink LESS now that I've become a distiller. Having to taste/drink spirits early in the morning as part of my job has put me right off it! haha

As a pretty new distiller here in Myken, I must say I agree with all your points. On the other hand, there's an overwhelming amount of buts too :)

Distillery operator here Mostly very spot on. I make $25/hr on 12 hour night shifts after 1 year. Some smaller places will be $22/hr and larger distilleries as high as $30/35/hr for veterans. Equipment is very loud and it’s extremely hot in the summer but usually pretty bearable. It’s a “recession proof” industry, and I wouldn’t do anything else without a fat raise. You generally don’t have to have a degree unless you work in R&D or management 👍🏼

Thanks. This was interesting. Despite the drawbacks you listed, being a distiller still sounds like a lot of fun.

For me at our distillery, only 10% of the work is actually distilling. The majority is cleaning and clerical stuff.

Fantastic - similar to pros/cons of emergency service veterinarian. Long hours, shite pay, tendency to have a few too many sips when on duty. Client interactions plus or minus. Distillers don't get bitten by rottweilers, or kicked by distressed horses, 😀

I had to laugh because before watching the video I was thinking it must be pretty bad. After watching I'm thinking eazy peazy. I have a full time job but I would like to work part time at a distillery to learn from to up my craft at home.
