Shine makers understand this. This is why you either discard the "Heads -Tails" or bring your product to the first boil. This gets rid of the potential hazard of having Methanol (wood alcohol) in you final product.

You are correct sir. I had failed to mention that part of Methanol. I was in a hurry earlier and should have included that.
