squire Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Presumably they add enzymes for the starch conversion? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramblinman Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 If corn whiskey is aged, it cannot be aged in new charred barrels, because that's makes it bourbonCan't be aged exclusively, right? I think I remember reading somewhere about one of the corn whiskeys (maybe a micro, so that would throw all logic out the window), was aged in a mix of old and new.

squire Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Must be new barrels to be Bourbon, of course the distillery can use a mix of old and new barrels for corn whisky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Enoch Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 I wonder if they will start producing Old Dispensary XXXX Corn Whiskey again? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowdery Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 New uncharred barrels can be used for corn whiskey but it's almost never done due to the expense. New charred barrels cannot be used for corn whiskey, even in combination with used barrels.Both George Dickel and Jack Daniels could market their white dog as corn whiskey, since the JD mash bill is 80/12/8 and the GD mash bill is 84/8/8.

squire Posted May 16, 2013 Share Posted May 16, 2013 Ah, that distinction escaped me, I thought corn whisky could be aged in new charred barrels so long as it was mixed with whisky from second use barrels. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
