There are a variety of different styles of homemade spirit from all over the world. In this brief article, I will go over some of the most common types of homemade spirits and how they are made. Some of the options include white distilled spirits, brown liquor, Scottish whiskey, and many other options as well.
Types Of Homemade Whisky
The most popular style of homemade spirit is American. It has a great taste and many people make a great American whiskey. Most of the ingredients for an American whiskey can be purchased at any liquor store or supermarket. The most common ingredients used in making an American flavoured whiskey are corn, caramel, corn meal, and yeast. The distillation process removes the corn from the mix, so you will lose the sweetness of the corn.
Scottish whiskey is also created using the same distillation process. The only difference between the two is the method of creating the finished product. The Scotland distilling process is a bit more involved than the American process, but the end result is also delicious. The specific alcohol content is less in American than Scottish. You will also notice that the flavor is not as full bodied as it is in Scotland.
Making Scotch Whisky
There are also many different recipes for good Scotch. Some people like to mix Scotch with vermouth or sherry. Other mix it with gin. You can also choose to substitute Scotch in many recipes. For example, you can replace part of the vermouth in chicken or beef recipes with Scotch. The flavors will be much different, but the texture and flavor will be the same.
Brown liquor is also very popular. It was originally created for Scottish settlers, but it was quickly adopted by the southern part of the United States. The process for making brown liquor is very simple, but you do need to buy good grade malts. If you can buy good tasting malt, the entire process is a cinch.
You can find recipes for homemade whiskey on the internet and in cookbooks. There are also plenty of great books on the subject. In fact, it may surprise you to see just how many books there are on the subject. There is no reason to struggle to make your own beverages if you can find a great recipe for homemade whiskey.
