===Sir Anthony Perrier=== Sir Anthony Perrier (1770β1845) was operator of the Spring Lane distillery (Glen distillery) in Cork, Ireland from 1806. In 1822, he patented one of Europe's first continuous whiskey stills. The still included a labyrinth of partitions, which allowed the wash to flow gradually and continuously over the heat, with increased contact between the vapour and liquid phases of the distillate. In addition, the still contained "baffles", similar to modern bubble trays.<ref name=":0" /> This meant small portions of fermented "wash" received the greatest amount of heat, thereby increasing the amount of potable alcohol that was collected.<ref>[https://books.google.com/books?id=f7MwAQAAMAAJ&dq=anthony+perrier+patent&pg=PA376] Anthony Perriers Patent Submission- Improved Distillation Apparatus (P.10)</ref>
