Before exploring large bottles of whiskey and their prices, you should be imbued with the history of the creation of this unsurpassed drink and its types. This strong alcoholic drink (strength 38 - 41%). It is produced in many countries of the world, has a unique recipe for preparation and aging.
Two great countries have contested the whiskey dominance for centuries. In Ireland, despite the lack of documents confirming the creation, it is argued that the students of St. Patrick were the creators of the great strong drink. Scotland, in turn, proves the primacy of the appearance of a strong alcoholic drink in their country, through documentation from 1494. The documents indicated the first recipes for making a strong drink and its creators.
The global development of the drink began in 1700 after the innovation of equipment for its production. After that, the production began to rapidly modernize, the distilleries for its production increased. It was the professionals from Ireland who developed the methods of making a strong drink that are still used today. After 1800, due to high taxes and the fight against the consumption of alcoholic beverages, there are far fewer distilleries to process and manufacture the drink.
Whiskey is a noble and truly unique alcoholic beverage. Only a large bottle of whiskey with a swing can double the pleasure of buying a drink. Such bottles are produced in all leading countries for the manufacture of this drink: Scotland, Ireland, America.
Big bottle advantage:
Bottles of alcohol of this denomination are most often bought by collectors of an elite strong drink. A feature of such containers is to attract special attention to themselves, therefore, alcohol brands are bottled in large bottles only with a high-quality drink, which the company can be proud of.
The volume of bottles sometimes reaches 7 liters, so it becomes very problematic to pour alcohol from them. Especially for such cases, a swing stand is included with the bottle. You can simply store large bottles of whiskey on it - it looks quite aesthetically pleasing. Pouring the drink into glasses in this way is also convenient. The price of a large bottle of whiskey will be less than the sum of several bottles of the drink together. This comes from the fact that less materials are used for alcohol containers.
Gift alcohol in such a container is a memorable present for an important date. A large bottle of whiskey can be purchased for yourself. This will be appropriate if a person is a connoisseur of such a great drink or a party with a large number of people is planned. An unusual bottle will allow the owner of the house not only to treat each guest with a generous portion of a drink, but in itself it will turn into an event of the evening.
The Scottish Edrington Group, among other things, the manufacturer, decided to declare itself to the whole world in a rather original way. By their order, Czech glass blowers at the Bomma plant in the Czech Republic produced the largest bottle for whiskey with a nominal value of 228 liters. High-quality and expensive Scottish scotch was poured into the container, striking in its volume.
But it will be very difficult to open it. The fact is that the lid was literally hammered into a bottle with an alcoholic drink, because there is no other way to cork such a dimensional container yet. At the moment, the largest bottle is in the Scottish town of Criff.
Officially, it is customary to distinguish between the following types: Scottish, Irish and American. They differ in raw materials, production process, aging form, taste and aroma.
Scottish is divided into: single malt, pure malt and blended.
Single malt is distinguished by its preparation from one variety of barley. Aged for at least three years in a casserole or sherry casserole. The taste and aroma of such a drink is rich and deep.
Pure malt whiskey is also produced from one type of barley. But later it is blended with other varieties of single malt. Differs in mild taste and specific aroma.
Blended is made from various types of barley or corn. Has a less pronounced taste. Blended with pure malt whiskey.
The largest bottles of whiskey in Scotland are produced by the companies: Johnnie Walker, Chivas Regal, White Horse.
Mostly Irish is made from wheat, barley and oats. During the production process, a double or triple distillation takes place, then the drink is aged in oak barrels from bourbon or kherson for three years. Irish alcoholic beverages of this type lack the taste of peat, they have a subtle bouquet of taste and aroma.
Large bottle whiskey brands in Ireland: Bushmills, Jameson.
The American has many types, but the main ones are bourbon and
Bourbon is made from 50% corn and other grains. During the production process, bourbon is cleaned with a charcoal filter and aged in new oak barrels for over two years. The taste of bourbon is woody and specific.
Canadian is made from rye, corn, and wheat. The peculiarity of the production of a strong drink includes a separate distillation of each type of cereal. Subsequently, the distillation products are mixed and aged in oak barrels from Kherson.
Bourbon in large bottles of whiskey on a stand is made by the companies: Canadian Club Classic, Jack Daniels, Jim Beam.
Traditionally, Scots stick to pure whiskey. It was considered bad form to dilute a drink or have a snack. But times are changing, and combining alcohol with other drinks or food is gaining more and more popularity.
Do not combine a strong drink with heavy foods or cheeses. In the first case, the body will react to the combination with heavy food with indigestion. In the second, the pungent smell of cheeses will overpower the delicate aroma of alcohol.
American varieties should be supplemented with red meat: lamb, beef and pork. The Irish fully develop their palate when paired with seafood and dark chocolate. It is recommended to drink Scottish, combining with red fish, salmon, fried liver and fruit.
Whiskey is a strong one that is made from grains and water. Its peculiarity lies in its rich and strong taste, refined aroma. The favorite drink of not only men, but also women has a centuries-old history and a unique production method.
