Blended Whiskey
A Blended Whiskey or a blended whisky is a blend of different types of whiskeys with addition of neutral grain spirits, colourings and flavours.
Blending whiskey is a commercial venture to make rare whiskey more accessible by adding cheaper grain spirits with minimum ageing life with aged straight or single malt whiskey in a way that the qualities and flavours of the single malt can be enjoyed to an extent while not having to pay the premium price of a Single Malt Straight Whiskey.
Johnnie Walker, Chivas Regal, Canadian Club, Canadian Mist, Jameson Irish Whiskey are good examples of premium blended whiskey that have crafted a space of their own in the world of a whiskey aficionado.Bitters 2es
Alcoholic spirits infused with botanicals such as herbs, roots, fruits and leaves, are called Bitters.
Bitters consist of water and alcohol which has been steeped with various herbs, fruits, leaves etc. Bitters are not to be drank neat or even as the base spirit of a cocktail, these are usually concentrated alcoholic concoctions and just a dash or a few drops are all we need to add that taste to a cocktail.
There are exceptions and some bitters like the Italian Amari is consumed without mixing in a cocktail. It has a bitter sweet taste and alcohol content is somewhere between 16%-40%. Generally in Europe its being consumed as an after dinner digestif.Ginger Ale
Ginger Ale is a non-alcoholic carbonated soft drink with a distinct ginger flavour. it is drank on its own and as a mixer. There are two types of Ginger Ale, the classic Golden developed by Irish Doctor Thomas Joseph Cantrell, and the dry pale style with milder flavours. by John McLaughlin of Canada.
Traditional Ginger Ale is fermented using ginger, yeast (or ginger bug), water, sugar and other flavourings. Sugar is added to speed up fermentation since Ginger's sugar content is lower than needed for fermentation. In classic Ginger Ale the carbonation is not artificial but comes from the fermentation of sugar by yeast into ethanol and carbon dioxide.
