    When you run a still with a reflux or refracting column very pure tasteless alcohol is produced.
    Vodka is produced with a pot still and the flavours from the wash will carry over to produce the “taste”
    Limoncello should be produced by seeping the lemons I pure alcohol for weeks and then diluted with a sugar water solution to 50% AbV or 100% proof.
    If you want lemon flavoured vodka just use lemon cordial

    Sounds wonderful, Karlyn! My step-son IS turning 21 this summer! BTW did you see the clip of Danny Devito on The View quite drunk? He was on one morning after a night with George Clooney and his Limoncello that he probably acquired a taste for at his home on Lake Cuomo, Italy.
