No ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana i ka whisky, pono ʻoe e ʻike i nā barela i hoʻohana ʻia, no ka mea, ʻo ka hapa nui o ka ʻono o ka whiskey mai nā barela lāʻau. No ka hoʻohana ʻana i kahi hoʻohālikelike, ʻo ka whiskey ke kī, a ʻo nā pahu lāʻau he ʻeke kī. ʻO Whiskey, e like me Rum, he ʻuhane ʻeleʻele. Ma mua, ʻaneʻane akaka nā ʻuhane i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia a pau ma hope o ka distillation. ʻO ke kumu i kapa ʻia ai lākou he "ʻuhane ʻeleʻele" no ka lawe ʻana i ka ʻono a me ke kala mai ka pahu lāʻau. No ka hoʻomaopopo ʻana i kona ʻono Style, hiki iā ʻoe ke koho i kahi waina i kūpono iā ʻoe. I kēia manawa, maʻalahi hoʻi ka huikau e nā poʻe maʻamau, ka ʻokoʻa ma waena o ka whiskey a me ka brandy. Mai ʻōlelo ʻoe ʻaʻole maopopo iā ʻoe ma hope o ka heluhelu ʻana!
I kekahi manawa ke hele mai au i ka hale kūʻai waina, inā he inu māmā a he inu manuahi paha a makemake wau e kauoha i kekahi mau ʻuhane, ʻaʻole maopopo iaʻu pehea e koho ai i ka Whiskey a me Brandy, inā makemake wau i kahi kāleka ʻeleʻele a i ʻole Remy. ʻAʻole e haʻi aku i ka brand, ʻelua mau ʻuhane i hoʻoheheʻe ʻia me kahi degere ʻoi aku ma mua o 40 degere. ʻO kaʻoiaʻiʻo, ua maʻalahi hoʻi ka Whiskey a me Brandy e ʻike mai nā mea ʻono. ʻO ka ʻōlelo maʻamau, ʻoi aku ka ikaika a me ka ʻono o ka ʻala a me ka ʻono o Brandy, ma muli o nā ʻano mea hoʻomake like ʻole.
Hoʻohana ʻo Whiskey i nā kīʻaha e like me ka malt, ka bale, ka palaoa, ka rai a me ka kulina, ʻoiai ʻo Brandy e hoʻohana i nā hua, ka hapa nui o nā hua waina. ʻO ka hapa nui o nā whiskey i ʻelemakule i nā pahu lāʻau, akā ʻaʻole pono ʻo Brandy. Inā ʻoe i hele i ka ʻāina waina Palani, loaʻa iā Brandy kekahi mau wahi waiwai i nā ʻāpala a me nā pea. ʻAʻole paha lākou i ʻelemakule i loko o nā pahu lāʻau, no laila ʻaʻole maopopo ke kala. ʻO kēia manawa ke kamaʻilio nui nei au e pili ana iā Brandy, ka mea e kahiko ʻia i loko o nā pahu lāʻau a hoʻopaʻa ʻia me nā hua waina. No ka mea i hoʻomoʻa ʻia me ka hua, e ʻoi aku ka momona a me ka ʻono o Brandy ma mua o ka whisky.
Aia nā ʻokoʻa i ka hana distillation. Hoʻohana wale ʻo Whiskey i ka ipuhao a i ʻole nā mea hoʻomau mau. ʻOi aku ka ikaika o ka mea mua, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o ka mea hope no ka hana nui akā ua maʻalahi ka nalo; ʻoiai hoʻohana ʻo Brandy i ka distillation pot Charente kahiko. Palani (Charentais Distillation), ikaika loa ka ʻono, ʻo Charente ka ʻāina ʻo Palani kahi i loaʻa ai ka wahi o Cognac (Cognac), a ʻo ka Brandy i hana ʻia ma ka ʻāpana hana kānāwai o Cognac hiki ke kapa ʻia ʻo Cognac (Cognac), ka Ua like ke kumu i ka champagne.
ʻO ka hope ka pahu a me ka makahiki. Ua ʻōlelo ʻia ʻoi aku ma mua o 70% o ka ʻono o ka Whiskey mai ka barela, ʻoiai nā barela like ʻole i hoʻohana ʻia e Whiskey ma Scotland, e like me ka bourbon a me nā barela sherry, ua hoʻohana ʻia nā barela kahiko (Whiskey ma ʻAmelika Hui Pū ʻIa hoʻohana i nā barela hou. ) ʻoak barela), no laila, loaʻa iā ia ka ʻono o ka waina i hoʻopaʻa ʻia ai. ʻO Brandy, ʻo ia hoʻi ʻo Cognac, ʻo ka mana o nā barela oak ka mea nui loa. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, hele mai ka ʻono a me ke kala mai nā barela, a ʻo ka hana o nā barela e like me ka ʻeke kī. Eia kekahi, ua ʻōlelo ʻo Cognac i nā mea maka i hoʻohana ʻia i loko o nā barela he ʻoka mai 125 a 200 mau makahiki. ʻElua wale nō mau lāʻau ʻoka Farani e hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia no nā barela ʻoka kahiko o Cognac - Quercus pedunculata a me Quercus sessiliflora. ʻO ka hapa nui o nā barela i hana ʻia e ka lima, no laila ma ke ʻano o ke kumukūʻai, ʻoi aku ka maikaʻi o Cognac ma mua o Whisky.
I ke kaʻina o ka ʻelemakule, aia nā lanakila a me nā poho. Loaʻa i ka Whiskey ka "Angel's Share" no ka hoʻohemo ʻana i ka waina, a ʻo Cognac pū kekahi me "La Part des Anges" me kahi ʻano like. Ma ke ʻano o ka makahiki, ʻōlelo ʻia ke kānāwai Scottish e hiki ke kapa ʻia ʻo Whiskey ma hope o kona ʻelemakule ma mua o ʻekolu mau makahiki i loko o nā pahu ʻoka. Makemake 'oe e kaha 'ia me "NAS" (Non-Age-Statement).
No ka Cognac, ʻaʻohe pono e hōʻailona i ka makahiki. Akā, ua hōʻailona ʻia me VS, VSOP, a me XO. ʻO ka manaʻo o VS he 2 mau makahiki i loko o nā pahu lāʻau, ʻoiai ʻo VSOP he 3 a 6 mau makahiki, a ʻo XO ma kahi o 6 mau makahiki. I nā huaʻōlelo ʻē aʻe, mai ka manaʻo o ka ʻoihana kūʻai a me nā koi hoʻoponopono, hiki i ka Whiskey me kahi makahiki i hoʻopaʻa ʻia e ʻoi aku ka lōʻihi ma mua o Cognac. Ma hope o nā mea a pau, ua manaʻo ʻia ʻo Whiskey he 12 mau makahiki e nā mea inu ma ke ʻano he inu maʻamau, no laila pehea e manaʻo ʻia ai he inu ʻo Cognac 6 makahiki? mea. Eia naʻe, manaʻo kekahi poʻe mea inu waina Palani e hiki i ka Cognac ke piʻi i kona kiʻekiʻe ma hope o 35 a 40 mau makahiki o ka ʻelemakule barela, no laila ua loaʻa kēia pae i ka Cognac kaulana i nā makahiki he nui.
