My mom's 2 sisters are having a baby shower for me. My mom passed away when I was a teenager. I am very close to my dad and would like him to be at my baby shower, especially since my mom can't be. He would be the only man there.
Whisky is made from grain. This is what distinguishes it from other distilled beverages like brandy, which is made from grapes, and calvados, which is made from apples. Simply speaking, whisky is nothing more than distilled beer. Like beer, malted barley and other grains are the source of the sugars necessary for fermentation. The sugars in the grain are released by steeping it in hot water. This sweet liquid, known as âwort,â is cooled down.
As you said, whiskey may be made from either wheat, corn, rye or barley. American bourbon is predominantly corn, Canadian rye from rye, Scotch from barley & Irish from any of the aforementioned grains. Whiskey made from barley is tasteless, rye, bourbon impart good flavour.hile the rules are slightly more loose with Bourbon than with Scotch it still has to conform to a few requirements. The spirit must be distilled to no more than 80% alcohol (160 proof) and be no more than 62.5% when put into casks for aging in new charred oak barrels.
