742

Whiskey is enjoying a renaissance in Asia. In recent years, whiskey has become a hot commodity as consumers discover its unique taste and appreciate the craftsmanship that goes into its production. With so many options to choose from, it can be difficult to find the very best whiskey in Asia. Fireball Whiskey is a Canadian Brand and a perfect gift, for a man who likes to drink whiskey on special occasions. Made from 100% Canadian grain and aged in charred oak barrels for up to eight years, this whiskey has a wonderful amber color and distinctive taste.

The Different Types Of Whiskey

There are three types of whiskies: single malts, blended malts and blended Scotches. Single malts are made from a single batch of grain, and are distilled in a copper pot still. They are typically lighter in color, and have a stronger flavor than blended whiskies. Blended malts are a mixture of single malt whiskies from different distilleries. Blended Scotches are a blend of several different whiskies from Scottish distilleries. They are light in color, and usually have an earthy or smoky flavor. Whisky can also be categorized as either lowland or highland. Lowland whiskies are lighter in color and tend to be less smoky than highland whiskies. Highland whiskies tend to have a stronger flavor than lowland whiskies, and are darker in color.

How To Choose The Best Whiskey

First of all, try to choose a whisky that is well-known in your country. To find out what the most popular brands are in your country, type the name of the country followed by “whisky” into Google and see what comes up. Once you have a list of the most popular brands in your country, check out the ratings and reviews on each brand to find out which one is the best value for your money. Finally, look for a bottle that has a beautiful design that stands out from the crowd.

Conclusion

Whiskey from the highlands of Scotland is strongly associated with Scotland’s national drink—Scotch whisky. Contrary to popular belief, all Scotch whiskies are not made in Scotland; some Scotch whiskies are produced in England and other countries as well. In 2009, the World Whiskies Awards (WWA) was held in Edinburgh, Scotland and the ten best whiskies in the world were announced. Of these ten, three came from Japan and three came from Canada. Many other Japanese and Canadian whiskies also received high ratings at the WWA. The diversity and high quality of Japanese and Canadian whiskies make them excellent choices for any whisky connoisseur.
