    Brian and Jason went pretty far into the woods to get rid of the body and no joke they found an actual wizard tower with a secret whiskey vault behind a bookcase! So I guess we're learning about the fundamentals of whiskey this week.

    I randomly clicked this video years ago before I had any interest in whiskey and now I’m a blender working for a large craft distillery. Whiskey has become my life and this video here planted the seed that launched me on that journey. So thank you!

    This is the single greatest introduction to whisky out there.
    Not only is Daniel, the guy with the magnificent beard, fun, knowledgeable and anti-snobbery (the holy trinity of teaching) he explains everything in such a sensible way while choosing some great examples to show how it turns out in the product.
    Also you guys are following along with interest and trying to learn but aren´t annyoing when chiming in.
    Honestly this was better than many tastings I have done even without drinking along.
    Good on you... go sit on your whiskey!

      "guitarfreak" I bought a 12 year old Aberlour single malt after much research looking for a good scotch to enjoy. So many good reviews people loved it so. I am a long time whiskey drinker and wanted to add a scotch to my collection. I poured a small glass and nosed or smelled the whisky and thought oh no I am in trouble this smells amazing, I took a sip holy shit its gasoline!! I am just not a scotch Guy. I love the 12 year redbreast they drank at first I am more of a Irish whiskey drinker, I also love Canadian and American Whiskey's. My brother in law found and loves a Scotch that I thought was ok "sorry don't remember the name" I really wanted to like scotch to. I mean no put down on scotch, Just your statement of enjoying your scotch made me think of it.

      Basically means it must be produced at one distillery during one distilling season, aged a minimum of four years in a federally-bonded warehouse in new, charred oak barrels, and bottled at 100 proof (50% ABV).
      That's on top of the other legal requirements to call that whiskey a bourbon.

    Also - the Whisk(e)ys in order of appearance, with a bit of research on my side:
    1. 2:28 Redbreast 12 Years, irish single pot still.
    Unique Taste from a percentage of unmalted barley, which the irish used to trick the british tax system in the 1800`s. Regarded as a classic irish style. I have read at some point this styles availability is receding with Redbreast being one of its most revered figureheads - cant find that again, though. Historical explanation starts at 10:32
    2. 6:40 (not tasted) Knob Creek 100% Proof (=57,15 %Vol vs. most bottles at 40 %Vol.) 9 Years (presumed)
    Named after a Creek near its Distillery. Part of Jim Beams "Small Batch" Program.
    3. 6:55 Henry McKenna 10 Years
    Apparently was very famous in the early 1900's until the prohibition was declared and was known for its high quality. Today I found it often rated just under 4 of 5 - with many wondering why its score isnt higher and citing it as their go-to bourbon. Seems to be one of the most Iconic Bourbons.
    4. 11:53 Whistlepig 10 Years, Straight Rye,
    People were upset to find Whistlepig was sourced from Canada and only finished aging in Vermont, when it is perfectly normal for young brands like Whistlepig to start like that. I could not find if they still do their whiskey like that, but Whistlepig is certainly held in high regards by customers in critics alike.
    All in all, I think I can tell customers genuinely rever these brands and we are looking at some good quality. What everyone personally prefers might differ from one to another, but these bottles seem to be a safe bet to be met with an at least pleasurable experience. The Wizard has chosen wisely.

    There are a few stellar whiskeys playing on the chocolate flavours from the micro distillary at middleton. The series is called method and madness. Using french limousine and chestnut to age the whiskey. If this appeals to anyones pallet id highly HIGHLY recommed it. also the redbreast lustau on the nose is unreall.

    its not just the wood that adds flavour. a speyside whisky gets its unique flavour from the local water used to cut down the high strength grain to the traditional 40/35% strength before it gets stored in oak barrels. an expert whisky taster (who isnt me lol) could tell you the region a scottish whisky came from by the unique flavour from the water in it alone. the irish stout was a way to circumvent the malted barley tax as well. they just roasted the grain instead

    • @jakecullen1096
      @jakecullen1096 5 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      SteamMachine the water contributes less than 1% of the flavour. No distillery in speyside takes directly from the river Spey. Distilleries now 99% of the time in Scotland draw from the water table. Water effects the yield you get but not the flavour. (I work in the scotch industry)

    • @philipgibson2066
      @philipgibson2066 5 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      @@jakecullen1096 No distillery draws its water from the river. Im sure he meant local springs and wells, not the actual river itself. You work in the industry? cool. So you will know about famous wells like Collmans (Highland) and specifically the Cairngorms (Speyside) in and around the Macallan, Glenfiddich, The Glenlivet, Tomintoul and Braeval distilleries with Cairngorms being the highest spring water source in the UK and being low in minerals whereas the Colemans is high in certain minerals offering both very distinctive tastes? I dont work in the industry, I read a book and find it difficult to agree with water does not affect taste. But i am not an expert like you.
