How to make Smoked Whiskey at Home 8 YEARS OLD in ONLY 9 Days

[@rmtl3140]

I made this last week. Before smoking, it was indeed 'spectacular'! Then I placed the liquid in my smoker. I WAY over smoked it. Lesson learned. I will do it again this week, and place it in the smoker for no more than 5 minutes. I discovered that liquid absorbs smoke much faster than I anticipated. Also, I see some comments asking why make the whiskey when you can buy it. First, some of us like the process. Second, I can make a $25.00 bottle of whiskey for under $10.00. Nothing wrong with that!

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

Me too I making a new ones 😜 keep us updated

[@nefewmike-mike2652]

What kind of food alcohol did you use

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

@nefewmike-mike2652 kind of vodka

[@marvinharms1891]

Thanks Andrea. I do home distilling, it's legal here in South Africa. I use American white oak staves. I put the jars in the sunlight. I have to give the fridge a try next time. Just waiting for my fermentation to complete.👌

[@danthemann]

Fun video! Thanks. Rapid aging with the JD chips can be done with hot (~135F) and cold water baths (Sous Vide / Instapot & Ice water) by cycling the jars for 45 minutes or so each to the color desired. You can compress the 8 days to a few hours. I have to try the smoke step now.

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

Thanks for the advice 🤩🥃

[@kingdarkem]

If you use an ultra sonic cleaner for both baths you can cut down even more....and do not use just straight chips....toast them by varying amounts and use 1/10th of the chips as charcoal. Save some fat from the smoke house from something like pork belly and do a fat wash with the chips. I dont know about anyone else but I like a lot of smoke in my liquor.

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

Thanks 👍🏼

[@dorodense]

I really like the logic of simulating ageing using the freezer and fridge! What a simple way to make great tasting whiskey. I think you should start an online gourmet shop and sell all your wonderful and unusual creations like you multi fruit wines, liqueurs, spirits, processed meats, cheeses, pastas, jams, desserts and all your other goodies. I am sure you will do roaring business. And I would love to be your first customer. 😃

I don't think you can sell alcohol esp without a special license. He could sell ingredients and tools though

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

Yes 🤔 probably it’s illegal in many countries

[@BrandonDewater888]

You can also char (burn)the wood. The inside of whisk(e)y barrels are charred and it adds flavor and color to the alcohol.

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

Yes 👍🏼 thanks for the advice

[@paulgdlmx]

I have made this several times but I don't "burn" the wood, I don't like the smoke taste. I use white oak from my firewood pile. Wonderful recipe. I have used the older recipe but it is basically the same.

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

Ok 👍🏼 thanks for sharing your experience

[@Harrisboyuno]

I actually tried my own method similar to this a while back before I saw the video. Freezer then stove, repeat over the course of 3 days. My lack of brain did not take into account the heat stress on the glass. Imagine my surprise when I stick the glass of whiskey in the pot then pull it out. Next thing you know the glass busted in half. The cleanest cut imaginable lol. I used Jack Daniels barrel blocks in my whiskey. It is available on the internet, They still contain (albeit dried of course) traces of JD whiskey in the blocks from natural evaporation during maturation. It made the best tasting and smoothest whiskey I've ever made. Plus the blocks still have char on it from JD's process of charring the inside of the barrel before storage. Just make sure to wash the blocks to get all that dirt, grime, and potentially mold. Do not use soap just plain water (preferably distilled water).

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

Thanks for sharing your experience and your advices 👍🏼

[@FrankJmClarke]

You can go outside, set a wood chip on fire, hold a jar over it, turn the smoke-filled jar over and pour the alcohol into it. If you don't have any cocktail smoker equipment. Thanks for the video!

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

Thanks for the idea 👍🏼🥃

[@cameronshine3465]

i like to make my own whiskey from scratch. your English very good now. I can taste that one from here.

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

Spectacular 🥳🥃 I would like to make from scratch too 🙂 maybe in the future

[@ARCSTREAMS]

glad to see you are using 40-45% distillate this time instead of that ultra overproof vodka 96%, yes smoking is good to do i sometimes blow smoke from my cigar into my whisky glass and cover it and let it sit for 15 min it smells and tastes very nice , btw i like your mini shot glasses but why did you not use cotton ball filtration as i told you about that last time

[@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato]

I tried with cotton discs but it was not working 😬

[@ARCSTREAMS]

no no i told you you need to use cotton balls like the one your wife has for her makeup, you can unroll a cotton ball or take a small piece of that and put it inside the funnel tube near the end where the liquid comes out, you should not use too much but just enough to get a dripping stream , pass maybe 100ml of alc at first and this should remove any lose fibres that come out from the cotton then take that 100ml alc and pass it through the filtre again and keep adding the rest of the alcohol through the filter to collect, it comes out crystal clear @@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato

thank you for your video, but I don't quite understand the freezer or fridge issue.
