Testing Different Oak Char & Toast With Nuclear Ageing (2x12)

Air date: Mar 16, 2018

This week I decided to test 4 different American white oak toasts and chars by quickly "ageing" some UJSSM whiskey. I wanted to be able to taste the differing flavours fast so I decided to use the nuclear ageing method. NOTE: - Yes, I used those "bad" lids. I know its a problem but I needed to use 4 "identical" vessels to keep variables down. I know its not on, but am willing to do it in a test scenario. - I understand that some people think of this method as unsafe. I understand your concerns, but personally, think the risks can be minimised to an acceptable level. - If you DO try this method MAKE SURE you are careful, take precautions and DO MORE RESEARCH! - Yup this is not "really ageing". That's the topic for a whole other talk. That's not what this video is about. It's about being able to experience the different flavours that wood imparts quickly so I can use that knowledge now. - Yes the wood will likely impart different flavours over a different time per
