Jim Beam Red Stag Black Cherry Whisky, 700 ml

Product Information

A good whiskey will impart the aromas of the beverage without smelling overly of alcohol. You should be able to detect, via smell, the essence of the whiskey itself along with the flavors that have been added to it. Another great Islay whisky which couldn’t be more different to Ardbeg, Bowmore is the master of mixing elegant smoke with fruity sherry casks. After 18 years of age this superb single malt has developed notes of apricot like you might find in an old Cognac combined with dried fruit and wood smoke. Pineapple With: Scotch whisky, Cherry Heering cherry brandy, white crème de cacao, dry vermouth and orange bitters.

We say: We do like a pun, especially a tasty pun. Sweet and sour cherry fortified with gin notes and delicate notes of mint and chocolate. This is a question that has been asked for many years, with no definitive answer. Some say that adding a cherry to an old fashioned is blasphemy, while others say it is a must. So, what is the right answer? Many seasoned whiskey drinkers turn their noses to the sky at the mere mention of "flavored whiskey"—and it's easy to see why. Most expressions on shelves at your local liquor store are less than good, despite being immensely popular. Flavor– The oaky bourbon whiskey pairs perfectly with the fresh cherries and amaretto for a perfect balance of sweet, sour, and nutty.

Combine two cups of sugar, two cups of water, and 450g of cherries (pitted, fresh or frozen) to a medium saucepan and bring it to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium, and simmer for five minutes, stirring frequently. Let it stand for five minutes. Then pour the cherry mixture through a fine mesh strainer into a large bowl, gently pressing the cherries to release its remaining juices. The infused whiskey is so strong that you can use it like an extract, mixing it with others liquors for what’s known as a “compound liquor”. For example, start mixing the cherry whisky with 1:4 parts dry white wine, adding cherry gastrique, or some burnt sugar for sweetness, along with a vanilla bean and a few peels or orange rind.If you want to chill your drink without diluting it, invest in some whiskey stones, which are typically made of nonporous soapstone. Keep them in your freezer and use them instead of ice. Fresh cherries – You can use frozen pitted cherries if cherries are not in season for you. Also, Luxardo jarred cherries work well here too, but they are expensive. I would not use the bright red, cheap maraschino cherries. Purportedly, tart cherry juice contains melatonin, which is a natural sleep hormone. Researchers also belief that magnesium may relax the central nervous system and help you feel sleepier. This is what inspired the bedtime drink. We say: Fernet Branca adds an almost smoky note to the rye, Yellow Chartreuse and cherry brandy combo. A great bittersweet after-dinner digestif.

Lemon juice– Fresh lemon juice will always taste the best. Fresh lime juice would work well also. If you don’t have any fresh juices and you must use bottled lemon juice, opt for 100% lemon juice that is not from concentrate. If you are looking for a more intense cherry flavor, then you may want to try the Russian Standard Cherry Vodka. It is made with real cherries and has a sweet and tart flavor. Finally, the Cherry Heering liqueur is a great option if you are looking for a whiskey that has a cherry flavor but is also sweet and smooth. From the classic Cherry Martini to the bold and spicy Cherry Bourbon Smash, there is no shortage of delicious drinks to choose from.In my opinion, when you are going to add several ingredients to whiskey it is not necessary to get top-shelf whiskey. I recommend any mid-range, 80-proof bourbon Cherry Simple Syrup
