You've heard of nitro coffee and nitro beer, but what happens when you nitro whiskey? Yup, we gotta say the word. No way around it, MB. The spirit gets SMOOTH (sometimes, you'll see). Our Unknown Alchemist returns to dive into more science, glory, and bubbles. Btw, thanks to Viski for sponsoring this episode! Shop Viski's glassware and barware at viski.com/

This makes me think Brianna would be both the most fun and most terrifying person to be stuck in an apocalypse scenario with.

I think it is a combination of her lack of traditional flavor vocabulary for comparisons and a willingness to be the wild child and free associate experiences in non-traditional ways that may reference other senses, but still have a flavor component.

Was touring Mcallan in Scotland about 3 months ago and we were given some of the spirit after the second distill to taste. When the guide asked us to describe what we were experiencing I said, "Candied Dried Soft Furry Pineapple with a chew" and a total rando in the group yells out "That's SO Brianna!" and of course I responded with, "You Magnificent Bastard!" .... we laughed, his wife laughed and my friends (who had no clue what was going on) were so confused! The rando turned out to be from Kentucky - small world huh!?

Is it possible that the less "burn" on the nitro whiskey is because it has increase the evaporation of the ethanol? You would need to measure the proof before and after.

@jimlasswell4491 8 ай бұрын

There was a bar in Venice Florida called Tap & Cork. Guinness stout was always on the menu. Often there would be craft beers that required nitro. The owner made the mistake of pushing the Guinness with straight nitro also instead of the proper 25%/75% (co2/nitro) 'beer gas'. The Guinness had half the flavor with a snow white head rather than light tan. Our fellow customers from across the pond were appalled, as was I. A shipment of Guinness (one quarter keg) would last a month. Most of the other quarter kegs barely lasted a week.

The bitter notes from the CO2 is cause it changes the PH of what you are carbonating it, in the aquarium hobby we deal with this if we dissolve CO2 for better plant growth

so if carbonating takes away some sweetness they you should carbonate one of the crown apple or peach that you said was too sweet, it would drop the sweetness and maybe make it right on target to be pretty good - also i wonder what it would be like if the bottle of sweet liquor was in the freezer and then pumped up with carbonation
