I was going to comment on this, but figured anyone stupid enough to try home distilling deserves what they get.

If you are that hard up for it, you could always soak Ti leaves and roots in a clear ethanol of some variety, and at least make a tincture. Not the same thing, but its legal... and most importantly SAFE. Distilling is a serious science and all too easy to screw up.
