Characteristics of whisky
Whiskey has the characteristics of mellow taste and long aftertaste. After fermentation, whisky needs to be aged in oak barrels. After aging, whiskey not only exudes a strong crop aroma, but also a faint oak aroma, which is more suitable for most men to drink. For foreign whisky, its biggest characteristics are light and clear taste, low degree, difficult serving, slow drinking and long aftertaste.
Whisky comes in many colors, from dark amber to light amber. Because whisky is stored in oak barrels, its color is closely related to the length of storage in oak barrels. Generally speaking, the longer whisky is stored in oak barrels, the darker its color will be.
