A home distilling kit is the answer. Home distilling kits for whiskey are trending right now, and I really can’t blame anyone if they get excited about whiskey aging kits. Who wouldn’t want to be a home distiller? I know that I would. That’s why whiskey home distilling kits are on the top of my gift list. I just have to find the right kind of set for my taste. Fortunately there are lots of variations out there. Whether you prefer single malt whisky or a blended whisky or even rye or bourbon whiskey, there is an ageing kit to suit for your preferences. What’s best, the kit has everything you need –so you really don’t have to do anything else than buy a home distilling kit of your preferences and follow the instructions and your taste – that’s right, you decide when the whiskey is ready and good for serving!

Whiskey Making Kits - Thousand Oaks Barrel Co.

Here it is! Your very own blend of Scotch whisky. Share your creation with friends and make them jealous. Scents of Beeswax, barley, brazil nuts, ground ginger & cocoa powder. Lovely soft chewy caramel & monkey nut skins. From the very first moment of opening the Designer Dram box to tasting the whiskey, it was a delightful experience for my husband. He was exhilarated with the gift and mentioned that the whiskey tasted divine. I, myself had some and couldn't agree more with him. Design as seen is illustrative, our in-house design team will ensure that the final label is executed impeccably.The lower alcohol percentage will provide a smoother, more diverse flavor profile. The higher alcohol percentage will provide a more concentrated, robust flavor profile. And what really is the best part – there is a possibility that you’ll mature good whiskey yourself. That’s because of the small barrels. Small barrels reduce the ageing time very much. Compared to the many years it takes the whiskey to mature in standard sized barrels, small barrels give maturity in a much shorter time. Some even claim that it only needs 2-4 weeks to age, while others suggest something between 3 and 6 months. My guess would be the latter part. I really don’t believe you can make even a decent whiskey in 2 or 4 weeks. Even though the whiskey barrel is compact size, 1 liter is the smallest you can get.

Complete Whisky Profile Kit | Home Brewing | Whisky Profile

Fresh and sweet, caramel apples with a light floral note. Soft yet pronounced, with good body. Creamy smooth with a taste of buttery vanilla. In this kit, you’ll find a 1 litre (well – one and a bit litres) freshly toasted American White Oak barrel of medium to heavy char, and 2 x 50cl bottles of new-make spirit (made entirely from Malted Barley). I’ve even bumped into one whiskey aging kit producer, who offers some “whisky essence” to help the buyers create a better taste profile. This is interesting because I know that even professionals can use essence while crafting a small batch whiskey in small barrels. For example, Valamo monastery distillery offers 30 liter casks when buying your own cask from them, and if you want their church wine maturation for the 30 liter cask, they’ll use some wine essence to get the wine taste in the whisky.
