It can produce flavors that aren't possible by any other culinary method. You can get distillates, like brandies, with more vibrant flavors than what you get from traditional methods. And the stuff left behind after distilling is often a delicious syrup, one that has no culinary precedent and that can't be obtained other ways. This is just the beginning of what's possible.
