In Moonshiners: Master Distiller season 4 episode 2, titled "Backwoods Double Elimination", the competition heats up as the remaining distillers face off in a double elimination challenge. Each distiller must create their own unique mash recipe, using ingredients sourced solely from the surrounding woods and backcountry. With limited resources, they must rely on their knowledge and expertise to craft a premium moonshine that will impress the judges.

As the competition gets underway, tensions run high as the distillers jostle for space and ingredients in the cramped distillery. It's a race against time as they hustle to gather the necessary elements for their mash and start the distillation process. But with only one still available, the distillers must take turns using it, adding an extra layer of pressure to an already tense situation.

As the distillation process unfolds, the distillers must carefully monitor the temperature and alcohol content of their moonshine, making adjustments as necessary to achieve the perfect blend. Each distiller brings their own unique twist to their recipe, with some opting for unconventional ingredients and techniques in a bid to stand out.

The master distillers judge the contestants' moonshine based on a variety of factors, including flavor, aroma, and overall quality. They take a detailed look at each batch, scrutinizing every aspect of the distillation process before declaring a winner.

As the competition draws to a close, the double elimination takes place, resulting in a shock exit for one of the distillers. The remaining contenders celebrate their victories but know that the competition is far from over. With more challenges to come, they must continue to push the boundaries of traditional moonshine making, using their ingenuity and creativity to prove that they are the ultimate master distiller.
