Abstract
A system and method for aging an unaged distilled spirit (raw product) to produce rapidly aged spirits over a very fast period of time whereby the rapidly aged spirit has flavor profiles and taste that replicate the flavor and taste of alcoholic beverages that are traditionally aged. A processing vessel dedicated to holding the unaged spirit and mixing the unaged spirit with charred wood staves is provided. Pressurized, filtered air is added to the processing vessel for a period of time and then the filtered pressurized air is released and vented elsewhere. Then, a vacuum pump is used to vacuum remaining air in the processing vessel for a period of time, and then the vacuum is quickly released resulting in violent, quick agitation of the remaining air and spirit in the processing vessel. A computer application is used to schedule the sequence of steps for a recurring period of time.
