Hello everyone.
So I was thinking when you mix neutral with oak chips. And get final product. Can it be called wisky, or if probuably no. What would be the most acurate name for it?

Perhaps if you prefaced it with 'faux' you could give it a bit f class.
(Only a bit tho' ;) )

My friend, I feel the need to answer several of your posts.
I will start with this one.

"Faux", French for false.
An oak flavoured neutral will not taste like a whiskey, but for some is close enough.

The second part above, you were confused by a TYPO.
It should have read, you could give it a bit of class.

The whole post being an idiosyncratic use of the English language that is slowly learned.

HTH

Robert.

Apologies domasj - I had not picked up on your struggle with English; did not intend to send you off on a hunt for understanding.
The upside is tho', it's all learning :D
Otherwise, what Easydrinker said. The spot of finger trouble got away from me before I realised. :o
