Blending
I took a sample of my shine (Odin´s cornflakes whisky recipe), I've mixed it with a bit of Johnnie Walker Red Label and taste very nice. I am thinking in blend my shine with portions of single malt or a bourbon. Any advice in blending?

Re: Blending
Not to hijack, but I read where they use corn whisky to blend the scotch with on one web page. I always thought it was 100% barley whisky no matter if it's single malt or blended.
Anybody know for sure?

I was under the (possibly false) impression that they blend with neutral for any blended spirit.

Re: Blending
While talking about blending and "experimentation", tread lightly. I recently infused pomergranite seeds with the rum I made. Ruined a 5th of good tasting rum. Sometimes it's best to stick to the tried and true.

In theory there's no difference between theory and practice. But in practice there is.

I've been blending apple pie and oaked sweet feed 50/50. I prefer it to either one by itself. I may try oaking some apple pie to see what that's like.

Re: Blending
Johnnie Walker red label is the reason i spent years drinkin beer. shared a bottle with a mate in my teens and grew up thinkin all whiskies tasted that bad. wasn't till i tasted bourbon in my later years that i changed my mind.
