    There’s so much that goes into making Tennessee whiskey that is practically impossible to make it with this barrel kit. You have to do the Lincoln county process, use a specific barrel (charred oak), has to have a certain proof and ABV, and Also has to be made in Tennessee. Mostly the Same way with bourbon. This barrel kit is really just a flavoring kit.

      @ghostlord2171 4 года назад +4

      The flavor comes via the expansion from the barrels they release o2 into the alcohol. This guy sucks horrifically

    I don’t know why everyone is hating on it so much yeah it’s flavored vodka but it’s not a bad idea I mean if you can end up making a cheap vodka into something that tastes like a decent whiskey, rum, bourbon etc.. then why not atleast try it? Throw your barrel on a fire and char the inside alittle bit and let it sit for a few months.

    WHY ON EARTH is this video ..... i just cant- NO - THIS IS NOT MAKING whiskey/rum/gin whatever- if you're using vodka you're making flavored vodkas- whiskey and boubon is made from a corn mash- - bourbon has to contain 51% corn and aged in a white oak barrel- any 'flavors' that are added makes it a whiskey not a bourbon- for that matter- the opening statement of they add flavors- NO - those 'flavors' come from the natural wood and distilling process and a mixture of corn/rye/malted barley which each have their own unique strains and flavors - anyone seeing this- do yourself a favor and do NOT follow the steps and think you're getting something quality- for cheap- you're getting junk product when you use junk ingredients

      I don't mind people experimenting to their hearts content. There are no standards on what one should like. There are however a minimum of standards that have to be met before calling a liquid Bourbon, Scotch or Whiskey. Can't go get a go-cart put some spoilers on it and red paint and call it a Ferrari. It's not even a car!

  • @trickedouttech321
    @trickedouttech321 5 лет назад +1

    Bourbon has no added flavors. Whisky and Bourbon alike get there flavors from ageing in a oak barrel. Bourbon in scorched or burnt new oak barrel. There are other things that make a whiskey a bourbon like 51% corn aged at least 2 years. However all the flavor comes from the wood and not from a bottle of extracted artificial flavors. If your one who likes to fight facts and 100% Proof, NPI. Look up the U.S. regulations on Bourbon and whiskey.

    • @swift20011973
      @swift20011973 5 лет назад

      There is no age requirement for bourbon. You can literally pour it in the barrel wait a few minutes and pour it back out. You will have to put age statement on the bottle though. Anything under 4yrs requires age statement. The 2yr minimum age requirement is for straight-bourbon.
