    Initially, I believed it nigh impossible to value the "humble" perspective of a man wearing a braided chain 4 inch gold medallion. But if this man was a character in Fallout, he'd be a goddamn 10/10 charisma. I would follow him into battle, just to have the small chance of celebrating with him afterwards.

      But what he said is true. Vodka is deliberately made to be tasteless. The better the vodka, the less it tastes. Whisky has a variety of tastes. Its very different and when he says vodka exists to make other things alcoholic he is speaking the truth. Its a great mixer because its tasteless but pointing that out and noting the differences between the two spirits isn't a "slam."

    • @lostthoughts73
      @lostthoughts73 Před 4 lety +2

      Actually, it depends on the company and the flavour. I used to melt my ice cream a little a lot to enhance the overall taste but eat it before it melted completely. That makes it feel like an ice cream with a extra flavor coating. But, as I said, this doesn't work with all flavours. For example, strawberry tastes so sweet that I just puke it out, but mangos get a nice sultry texture this way. Also, you can use the melted ice cream to work with the toppings. Try adding some chocolate syrup to a vanilla ice cream but instead of eating it instantly, swirl it around in the bowl letting it melt a little so that it now feels like a chocolate doughnut hole but tastes like ice cream

    Word from a chemist, technically the addition of water doesn’t cause a chemical reaction; it’s a physical process called “partioning”. He described what’s happening properly in terms of water insolubles separating from the water solubles. To partition is to separate, which is a physical action on the chemicals. Just to be clear a chemical reaction requires chemicals interacting in such a way to change at least one of the chemicals into a different chemical.

    Also on a side note: If you are specifically looking for whiskies with a high oil content, you don't have to rely on your or other people's experience. Instead specifically look for non-chill filtered whiskies, which the Bruichladdich happens to be and the rye they try afterwards most probably isn't. Chill filtration is a process that is specifically designed to remove oily components from whisky, because they can make it cloudy at low temperatures.

  • @HolyMith
    @HolyMith Před 2 lety +4

    In Scotland, people sometimes have water rather than ice. The difference is simply that the ice gradually melts as you drink it, so it has a varying amount of water (depending on how fast you drink) whereas a dash of water stays constant throughout the whole drink. And of course if you prefer it chilled or room temp. Water/ice drastically changes the taste of whikey (generally brings out sweeter flavours) so I always like to try a new one with and without ice and then decide.

    This guy knows a ton about scotch but I have one complaint. He hays this is a very smokey scotch, goes on to describe the whole peat smoke procedure etc.... All good, except that particular scotch "Bruichladdich - The Classic Laddie" is an unpeated scotch. Says it right on the bottle. I have one in my liquor cabinet right now. It's delicious, and has a strong Islay flavor, but no peat.

    • @Unearthing
      @Unearthing Před 5 lety +34

      I thought the same thing immediately. But, smoke doesn't come exclusively from peat fires, though. The barley (and any other grain wanted) can be dried by smoke from e.g. birch wood, too. The Laddie is certainly unpeated, but it has some very subtle smoke nevertheless. My favourite example for non-peated but still smoky flavour is Talisker 10.

      Nah, there isn't anything bad about this video at all, it's great content and very enjoyable listening to. Like TheYarrrr mentioned, it's still kinda funny how he knows almost everything down to the tiniest detail but still takes The Laddie as a representation of Islay's smoky whisky profiles. Certainly, The Laddie is a little aggressive (comes with 50% ABV) when undiluted, but it certainly isn't agressively smoky. Anyone more familiar with Islay whiskies will easily second that. Maybe he thought of Bruichladdich's Octomore Series which undeniably is aggressively smoky.

    • @jcarkesteijn

      I once froze a bottle of gin for my martinis. Freezing improves vodka in that it gains a very oily mouth feel, and I figured since gin IS a vodka, why not? I found out why not. A great martini requires some water dilution, which doesn't happen when the booze has been chilled below zero. You get a fiery, oily martini that tastes like crap. Similarly, with room temperature gin that is shaken, not stirred, you get a watered down, chilled drink where you barely taste the gin. Stirred, the fire of the gin is extinguished, the flavors all come through, and it is properly chilled for enjoyment.

    I’m so glad they pointed out that Bushmills triple distilled can’t stand up to ice. Jameson can, but with Bushmills you need at LEAST a 10year for it to last in ice...and t that point just drink it neat.

  • @paconotaco
    @paconotaco Před 5 lety +209

    I hate to be pedantic, but the water drops going into the whisky doesn't create a chemical reaction; it's a physical reaction. Water solubility has to do with the polarity of the molecules, not the actual molecular bonds. No new chemical substance is created from mixing the water with whisky, thus it is not a chemical reaction but a physical reaction.
    Wow, that is way more nerdy than it really should be.

    • @VIR0L0GY
      @VIR0L0GY Před 5 lety +5

      This simply isn't true. The physical reaction is molecules interacting and bumping into each other. The chemical reaction is those molecules shifting and changing into other compounds producing nuanced flavours that only exist with additional water. The concentration of water is relative to the amount of other flavours produced. Solubility is based on polarity, yes. But polarity and the resulting compounds are chemical reactions. Brian is correct in the video.

    • @barrys9842
      @barrys9842 Před 5 lety +10

      VIR0L0GY I don’t think it’s creating new compounds. The water just moves the oils to the top of the whiskey so it is more separated and easier to taste. That’s what I got anyway

    • @RCaIabraro
      @RCaIabraro Před 5 lety +2

      Polarity is a form of intermolecular force... technically XD In a previous life I did supercritical fluid extractions, which is all about polar/nonpolar. But you're right, you're making the whisky more polar and reducing the solubility of the nonpolar components, which are for the most part less dense, and will therefore float to the surface. The nonpolar phase tends to contain the more volatile, fragrant, and flavorful components, so pulling these out of solution and forcing them to the surface does indeed sound like a visceral experience.
