Whiskey Myths

I get a lot of questions about whiskey. So i decided to do a video about them. Some are basic and some get a little more in depth. Hope you enjoy.

Patreon.com/the_whiskeyshaman There are many myths about whiskey, including that all whiskey tastes the same, that older whiskey is better, and that color indicates quality. Myth 1: All whiskey tastes the same Whiskey comes in many styles and flavors, including smoky, fruity, and sweet. The flavor of whiskey comes from aging in casks. Myth 2: Older whiskey is always better While older whiskey can be rare, it doesn't always have more flavor. Taste preferences are the most important factor. Myth 3: Color indicates quality Whisky gets its color from the cask it's aged in, but whisky can be artificially colored. Darker whiskey doesn't always mean it's older or better. Myth 4: All bourbon is made in Kentucky Bourbon doesn't have to be made in Kentucky to be considered bourbon. The only official rule is that it must be made in the U.S. Myth 5: Whiskey is for the elderly This myth has been debunked. Whiskey is enjoyed by people of all ages. The myths about whisky you should stop believing Whisky is full of misconceptions and mistruths – some harmless, others that get in the way of dram enjoyment. We speak to industry experts to shed light on four common confusions News | 23 Jan 2024 | Issue 195 | By Kristiane Sherry Whisky is undoubtedly an intricate topic. That’s part of the joy of it – even the most advanced whisky chemists still don’t have all the answers. PhD students are delving into the complexities of malt varieties and wood’s impact on flavour. Their work is pushing the boundaries of what even the experts currently understand. For the average whisky enthusiast, it’s a case of the more they sip, the more they will learn. It’s a solid principle, regardless of how far along people are on their individual whisky journey. But with the quest for knowledge comes a challenge: what if what we’re told isn’t, well… true? This is where solid education comes in. While it’s absolutely possible to enjoy a dram without a depth of whisky knowledge, holding incorrect information to be true can impede the fun. Some of the most prevalent – that older whisky is ‘better’, that single malts are tastier than blends, that water cannot be added to whisky – are easily debunked. (Spoiler alert: all three are false. And they can all be simply rectified by tasting a great younger, blended whisky and adding a few drops of water.) However, some myths run a little deeper and require a detailed explanation. There are also grey areas – some things, especially in whisky, can’t be dealt with in absolutes. Some of the concepts unpacked here have an answer that begins, “Yes, and…”, because in most cases, there are exceptions to the rules. This is often where mistruths are born. It’s not that anyone intentionally passes on inaccurate information, and it’s certainly not a failing to get something ‘wrong’ in whisky. “I spent 20 years of my life working in whisky with some of the most experienced people in it, but I still learn new stuff,” says Brendan McCarron, a distiller and blending consultant and former master distiller at Distell. “That’s not a cliché, that’s the truth.” Consider this, then, an invitation to go a little deeper as we put some stubborn whisky myths to industry experts.
