I always assumed you were fine so long as you don't sell it?

I don't know that your allowed to distil privately in this country. Distillery's have a habit of blowing up if their not looked after properly.

A license is required to distill, regardless of whether or not you're selling it.

Absolutely need a distilling permit and your premises has to be cleared by Revenue Inspectors etc.
