From my chemistry background I know you could extract anything with solvents but I didn't realize that you would use that method to get a potable alcohol! I don't doubt you would be able to taste the difference.

Sorry, I didn't mean that I was using ethanol extraction to make alcohol. I mean that I bought the cheapest vodka I could find to use it as the ethanol for an ethanol extraction. I was actually using it to make vanilla extract, which is absurdly overpriced when you buy it normally (buy 25$ worth of vanilla bean, stick it in the cheapest vodka you can find, and put it in your freezer for 3 mos. Strain.)
