How do you drink the whiskey?
Which is the best?
For me there are no rules or
correct way to drink whiskey. Many say that it should be taken with water or
sparkling water because this way the flavor will be softened and its aromas are
released, others say with ice because it reduces its smell.
Aged or old whiskey is not the
best, the longest in the barrels the stronger the wood flavor and the expensive
whiskey does not mean it is superior or better.
Which is the best, 12 years old, 18
years old, 15 years old, 21 years old, red, blue, green, black, double black,
gold, three edges, which makes swim, etc. I think that this is marketing and big companies do it to earn more money.
It all depends on the palate of the
person, the best way to drink whiskey is how you enjoy it.
Which one do you like?

According to the United States
federal regulations for a whiskey to be labeled as bourbon, it must have a

minimum of 2 years, although the majority is aged for 4 years or more in oak

Scotch Whiskey
Scotch whiskey is made with barley
or wheat and we can divide it into two categories: mixed (BLENDED) and pure
malt (SINGLE MALT).
The mixing is obtained with a
combination of several different distilleries. It is usually 60% grain and 40%
malt.
But probably the best of all is the
single malt. The malt is obtained by soaking the barley until it germinates,
then it is dried in the oven and then fermented with yeast and in this way we
obtain the "water of life".
