Mixing 2 Flavors ??

[Andy]

I was at the local home brew shop yesterday and this guy was buying Whiskey and a few other flavors.

I asked what the whiskey was like (a few friends keep asking for it, I dont drink whiskey) and he says \"I dont know I mix that with this and get a nice Kentucky Bourbon\"

Has anybody tried mixing and matching in this manor??

I was thinking about mixing a SS top shelf rye whiskey with an SS top shelf Bourbon into my spirit on oak once i drain it off.But instead i am going to make 3 seperate bottles,one with each essence and leave one just oaked spirit.Will mix the two essences next time.maybe the next lot i oak.

I have read a few posts with people mixing the two and apparently produces a good bourbon.worth a shot!

I don\'t bother with all that. I just get the Still Spirits \"Classic\" range Tenessee sour mash and it makes quite a good one. The Kentucky Bourbon (same product range) is quite good as well, though I\'m more of a Jack Daniels person than a Wild Turkey/Jim Beam person.

Im yet to try the SS classic tenessee bourbon,must pick one up,im more of a JD drinker than JB drinker.

Im keen to try the mixing though,just to get the taste to my own liking.I guess thats where its at really.try and try again!

If your trying mixing flavours I would suggest trying the SS Whisky Profile Kit that\'s got all the flavours you could want.

I agree Opus27

the adjustments that you can make to a whisky/bourbon with the kit are almost endless and its great fun tinkering with the recipes

Another option I\'ve tried tonight. Make the different flavours up as normal and mix in the glass as a sort of whisky cocktail. Just tried the SS Classic bourbon with one of my Profile whisky\'s mixed 50-50. Quite a nice drink.
