We took a bunch of un-aged Island Scotch, filled up several different kinds of barrels - and let them simmer in Texas for 6-8 months. How is the Texas climate changing the whisk(e)y? Let's find out! Also, Hands Gordon becomes a baby bird and learns a valuable lesson. Barrels of whiskey. Copious amounts of shenanigan... Let's do this.

You could look into ultrasonic aging, last I heard that had some promising results. DIY-able with some woodchips, a few mason jars and a commercial ultrasonic cleaner. RU-vidr 'The Thought Emporium' has a video on it.

@puddingwar5110 4 года назад

When you artificial fluctuate the temp by heating and cooling a spirit it's called " force ageing". It's used to give you an idea of where the spirit is going with your wood but not a exact of how it will be with real time, but normally done over days of heating and cooling not just hours. But this way is still fun 😁.

@laurenzparsons5315 4 года назад

So down here in South Africa, the rumour is a bottle of whiskey aged in our heat tastes more aged than a whiskey of the same age from Scotland. So I reckon it might work out the same there. Also, Three Ships Whisky down here released a moscato cask finished 7 year old last year. If you can find one grab it. That stuff is like gold.

@chrisgeo1642 3 года назад

If you plan on maturing a new spirit at home with a 3 or 5 gallon barrel my suggestion is this, first get toasted oak spirals and put the spirit in jars with the spirals first for a few weeks and then transfer into the barrel but not for more than 2 or 3 months and then bottle it. Holding a small quantity in a barrel for longer is counter productive to developing a rounded flavor. Just my opinion based on what I found worked best for me.

@TheMrElzebub 4 года назад

In the NW there has been an emerging whiskey scene for the last 10 years or so. Several distilleries started with small barrel offerings while their bigger barrels sat. Having tried a couple now I could easily spot the "too much barrel" from the small barrel offerings.

That whiskey soup process you used is actually similar to what the maniacs at the Cleveland Whiskey Distillery are using for their Cleveland Underground Bourbon. You should try to hook up with those guys for a series of videos, because they’re into trying all sorts of unconventional things out in order to get the most interesting and unique flavors you don’t get by following traditional processes.

@Glaudge 2 года назад

each flavour interaction doesnt scale at the same rate as each other with the decrease in barrel size (also temperature). not only do you have vanillins tannins and wood sugars entering the spirit but you also have the oils, proteins, and congeners going into the barrel and those reactions may not be as barrel or temperature dependent as each other (e.g. reaction B may occur at the same rate regardless of temperature compared to reaction A that goes a whole lot quicker with increased temperature/smaller barrel)

Hilarious! Quality content. On a serious note, I think the better way to do the heating would be sous vide - you can heat the alcohol without evaporation. It's a great method for infusing flavors in vodka or for making cocktails.

Now, it would be nice to see a video in the opposite of small barrels: making a custom gigantic barrel (150-200 gallons) and age it for whatever time you want, maybe get samples over many time periods. Sadly, I also understand we would only get results YEARS down the line...

@anneonymous6006 4 года назад

Yo, you guys do a lot of good work discussing Texas whiskeys, some bourbons, and a lot about Scotch (especially Islay). What if you went around to different states and tried some of their major whiskeys? With the 'Rona happening that might be more difficult, but you can probably get some decent stuff shipped to you or at a local liquor store. You could probably also do this once it's all over eventually. I just want to see you two get excited over my home state's stuff (MO). They have a decent bit to offer.

@collinlansdell4166 4 года назад

I am curious if you guys have ever considered aging whisky in non traditional woods like pine or cherry wood. It probably would be a disaster but I've always thought pine wood whisky finished in a Sherie cask would be a great Christmas whisky. But I could just be insane

@ryanhobbs3362 4 года назад

Rookie question here, but do you ever swap the contents of one barrel to another after a set period of time to get a different mix of flavours? You mention that the small barrels can really emphasize the wood elements, but if you started aging in a small barrel for 6-8 months then went to something else (rum barrel perhaps) for the next phase of aging, could that then introduce another set of flavours that builds off of the wood from the initial barrel?

@SanskarWagley 4 года назад

you could do that, but I think it'd be better to blend from separate barrels, rather than move whiskey into multiple barrels

@TJ-bg4fw 4 года назад

It's more consistent and less time consuming to blend whiskeys aged in other barrels. Especially considering you can try it on a small scale when just blending different whisk(e)ys aka in a glass

@GreyDevil 4 года назад

You guys should see what happens if you made whiskey with corn smut. I looked and i haven't seen anyone make whiskey with it, probably a good reason for it but would be an interesting experiment.

I kinda wish you tried it "more seriously" just putting vodka and barrel wood in a pressure cooker, so that the proof doesn't go down too much and also don't use a microwave, so that the microwaves can't alterate anything in the beverage or the wood. Just the stovetop, a freezer and a pressure cooker would have been perfect
