Entrenched in a distiller's lexicon is the word cut. A cut is when a distiller separates a portion of a distillation run into three parts. These cuts are know as the "Heads" "Hearts" and "Tails."

1. The “Heads” are the first distillate to come off the still during a run. Due to the lower boiling point of methanol (CH₃OH), in relation to ethanol (C2H6O), methanol comes off the still first; this is the portion of the run is known as the “heads.”  These boiling points are relative to time and temperature during a run. “Heads,” are of tertiary importance and have no value to the process.
2. The “hearts” are of primary importance; “hearts” are the finished product, and contain high concentrations of ethanol (drinking alcohol), as well as congeners and esters (flavor & aroma profiles) that contribute to the character of a spirit. The "hearts" are collected separately to be bottled or matured in wood as a final product.
3. The “tails” are of secondary importance. "Tails" come off the still last, with a sweet taste and pleasant smell. "Tails" are lower in ethanol and higher in congeners and esters, they also contain amyl alcohols (C₅H₁₁OH) that contribute to mouth-feel and finish of a spirit. They are saved and re-distilled to generate more flavorful “hearts” in the next batch.

Head distillers work for years perfecting the art of making cuts.
