Compared with domestic sauce-flavored, strong and refreshing white wine, the way to drink whiskey is more colorful and enjoyable.
I will uphold the original spirit of Toutiao. Starting from one's own experience and cognition, share the original food proposition.
Among all wines, it is rare to change the various drinking methods from pure drink to soda, and there are very few wines with different drinking methods that will bring about different styles. The rich changes in taste are also one of the main pleasures of tasting whiskey.
The main five different ways to drink whiskey are: pure drink, half of water, ice cubes, water and ice, and soda water. I personally prefer pure drinks, and this habit has been used to this day since I first came into contact with whiskey.
① Pure drink
I personally recommend that beginners start with pure drink whiskey. Because pure drinks can best feel the original flavor of whiskey, which is roughly the same as the feeling of first love. Original whiskey is like a passionate and hot lover, making people unable to extricate themselves.
② Add water to half
Unexplainedly, when making whiskey, add mineral water (mineral water uses soft water, which is the best companion for making whiskey. Of course, the higher the quality of mineral water, the better the taste), the ratio is 1:1. The biggest advantage of making whiskey in this way is: even if placed for a long time, it will not dilute the wine, and can be enjoyed slowly for a long time and the taste will remain unchanged.
③Add water and ice cubes
The water added is also soft water with rich minerals. The ratio of ice to water is 1:2~1:2.5. The whiskey prepared in this way is soft and smooth.
④Single ice cubes
After adding ice cubes made of high-quality mineral water, as the ice cubes gradually melt in the cup, the taste of the whiskey also undergoes subtle changes. Generally, ice cubes are made into large ice cubes. This can effectively delay the rapid melting of ice cubes and make the whiskey change process longer.
⑤Add soda water
As we all know, when serving whiskey, it is usually paired with barbecue or barbecue, grilled sausage, etc., and soda water is added to facilitate digestion. Moreover, the whiskey is more likable and has a unique flavor after adding soda.
whiskey can also be added with cold water, so what is the use of adding cold water?
Adding cold water to whiskeys with high alcohol content can stimulate the rich aroma of whiskey stored in oak barrels for a long time, thus making the aroma of wine richer.
The order of tasting whiskey
The tasting whiskey can basically start with pure drinks, let a little wine come into contact with the tongue, and after careful taste, you will drink a sip of water. Repeat this many times, and then continue to add the same amount of ice water as the whiskey and continue to taste carefully. The supreme pleasure of whiskey will gradually emerge. When using whiskey to serve, if you drink strong whiskey when eating, you can add soda water. After the soda water is mixed with whiskey, it can match any flavor of dishes. Moreover, the refreshing soda water can also stimulate the taste buds and increase appetite simultaneously.
whiskey knowledge :
In our daily life, the main liquors we come into contact with can be roughly divided into three categories: ① brewed wine; ② configured wine; ③ distilled wine; and whiskey made from grains as raw materials and cooked in wine barrels is distilled wine.
can be divided into five major production areas according to the production country: Scotch whiskey, Canadian whiskey, Irish whiskey, American whiskey, and Japanese whiskey. Scotch and Irish whiskey are the oldest. Which of the two types of whiskeys is older, has always been controversial and has not yet succeeded. Among these five whiskeys, Japanese whiskey is a rising star, and Japanese whiskey is also inherited and developed based on Scotch whiskey. However, the influence of Japanese whiskey in global whiskey cannot be underestimated. If you like my food recommendations, please follow An Ge and share your unique insights here.
