How do you make wkiskey?

First .. do you mean whiskey with an e or Whisky without an e or both Lets Start without e> Whisky that means = basically traditional Scotch whisky two main types 1 Malt Whisky 2 Blended Whisky 1 use malted barley .. put it in water to extract the sugar, ferment and distill in a potstill to approx 70% store in used oak for at least 3 year but likely 10-15 years 2 use unmalted grain .. then the same distill in a patent still (colon) to approx 95 % store in used oak at least 3 year. Blend it with Malt whisky and you have a scotch blend If you add the e >> American/Irish Whisky Bourbon is one Tennesse (Jack Daniels is one) there is a lot of variants. BUT what is the diffrence .. First the tradition is less regulated and the varity greater, the mash is more a recipe's of different unmalted grains mainly Corn & Rye. Distilled in a more colon oriented still (not pot still) to a higher percentage than in Scotland. Store a couple of years in new American oak .. gives a lot of vanilla. Longer maturing in oak is also available but not as usual as in Scotland. Bourbon you drink with ice in a tumbler Malt whisky from Scotland you drink without ice in a tasting glass. Belnd from Scotland or elsewhere you drink as a bourbon with ice .


Is Old Overholt straight rye whiskey same as bourbon?

The only difference is the majority of grain in the mash. Bourbon is corn based instead of rye so your Old Overholt Straight Rye Whisky is composed of a minimum of 51% rye and aged for a minimum of 2 years. ----------------------- Rye Whisky is produced at not exceeding 80% alcohol by volume (160 proof) from a fermented mash of not less than 51 percent rye and stored at not more than 62.5% alcohol by volume (125proof) in charred new oak containers. The Straight in its label indicates it was aged for a minimum of two years in the charred new oak container. Bourbon Whisky is produced in the U.S. at not exceeding 80% alcohol by volume (160 proof) from a fermented mash of not less than 51 percent corn and stored at not more than 62.5% alcohol by volume (125 proof) in charred new oak containers. Previous answer was incorrect in that bourbon may be made anywhere in the United States.

Others include Irish whiskey, American whiskey (may not be limited to bourbon and Tennessee whiskey), Canadian whiskey, and Asian whiskies (in particular to Taiwanese and Japanese whiskies).


Where does Whiskey and rum get there brown color?

When the spirit is distilled it is completely colourless. The colour of the whisky when you see it in the bottle (and the glass) is a result of the maturation process. To be classified as a whisky, the spirit must have spent at least 3 years in Oak barrels, and fulfil varying other requirements depending on sub-category (Scotch, Bourbon, Tennessee, Rye, etc.). The colour comes from these Oak Barrels, and the intensity of the colour in the whisky is dependent on the prior usages of the barrels. Due to the intensity of fresh oak, Scotch whisky distillers use oak barrels which have previously been used to mature other drinks, predominantely either Bourbon or Sherry, as these drinks can take out much of the harsh richness of the oak which would otherwise overpower the delicate flavours of the whisky. Whisky matured in "First Fill" sherry barrels extract the deepest, richest, darkest colour from the oak accompanied by lots of sweet, fruity tannins. When this first fill has been removed from the barrel after 10years or so and bottled for sale, the barrel may be reused for maturing more whiskies. This is then called "Refill" or "Second (/Third) Fill" and the whiskies that are matured in these barrels will extract less rich colours and flavours through their respective usages. Whisky matured in first fill Bourbon barrels however, naturally draw less colour from the oak, generally resulting in a yellowish, straw-like colour; while the flavours extracted are likely to be more vanillin, citrusy, and floral spices. The reason for the difference in colour extraction between Sherry and Bourbon barrels is in the way that the sherry and bourbon themselves were matured. Sherry matures in an open cask to encourage oxidation, whereas whiskies mature in closed casks to avoid unwanted air contact. It is exactly this oxidation which turns sherry into it's dark colour, and which permeates into, and settles in the oak - which is in turn extracted by the maturing "whisky" spirit.

Is there an American bourbon that has no wheat?

The phrase "American bourbon" is redundant; by law, bourbon must be made in the United States to be called bourbon. Most bourbon has no wheat. A typical bourbon mash includes corn, rye, and malted barley. The legal requirement is a minimum 51% corn. Everything else is optional. Malted barley is used in small amounts (5%-15%) to aid in fermentation. Without it, enzymes need to be added to start fermentation. Rye is the more common flavoring grain. Wheat is more expensive (as a grain) but is used by a few bourbon brands, notably Maker's Mark, Weller, Fitzgerald, and the Van Winkle bourbons.
