      ​@@Kiwi_Teen-2.0 whiskey flavor comes from the barrell. The mashbill was already a great whiskey mash with 50% corn and 10% rye. I don't remember off the top of my head what the average whiskey stills at but they didn't specifically mention what abv the spirit run was, just that it was diluted back down to 40%. Sounds like it'd be a fine whiskey to me.

    vodka does not need to be more than 90% abv, in fact going past 90% abv would make it a neutral grain spirit that literally cant be classified as anything because it is literally almost pure ethanol, vodka is 40-90% abv.

    • @BigDRandy1243

      Vodka IS a neutral spirit.
      I do something a bit different.
      Preferable to make mine from dextrose and distilled water.
      I do a stripping run, but I proof it down to about 20% with Sweetwater (limestone aquifer water), do another stripping run, then a spirit run through a plate column.
      Finishing with charcoal filtration then proofing down with more Sweetwater for bottling.

      Vodka is ideally only water and ethanol, however the fermentation and distillation processes generate other compounds, like methanol, which is very poisonous. Foreshots, heads and tails contain the majority of those unwanted substances and the fraction that is consumed, the hearts, is the purest one.

      @hotpotato5587 Місяць тому

      Obv not an expert, nor do I have time to hunt down the guidelines that say this, but U.S. regulations allegedly say 40% abv is the minimum to be sold as vodka, but that’s usually because companies dilute the ethanol to make it palatable to most people.
      Vodka is classified not by its ingredients but by being distilled to minimum 190 proof (95% abv). There’s also apparently other rules about not aging it in wood barrels or other acts that would add flavors that would no longer keep the pure ethanol characteristic of vodka. I was curious, so in case you ask too, yes, flavored vodkas exist, but those are allowed to be sold as “vodka” as long as the flavor is clearly labeled.

    • @james10739

      @@james10739 They watered it down for taste. To make it more tolerable to them. Vodka isn’t defined by ingredients, only the fact that it’s pure unflavored ethanol, and to achieve that the U.S. standard is distill it until it’s at least 95% abv. As long as you don’t add flavor, vodka can be diluted as much as you like with water to lower the abv.

    that's not vodka. You need to use fractionating column witch distills multiple times at the same time. What you've got is a samogon, or a moonshine. It's not bad, but it is not vodka. Vodka should not have any taste, you can use sugar, or even better - inverted sugar (just boil a sugar syrup with some lemon acid and boom - you've got glucose and fructose molecules separeted and yeast can eat it faster and more effectively). Less taste, less ingredients - better vodka. The thing is to make clean product and don't have headache in the morning.

    This is not vodka! Traditional vodka generally made out of patato (let me know if im wrong). You guys made whisky. Unmatured whiskey, this is called white dog and if you mature that in oak barrels (oak wood is enough) you'll have whisky.

      @@mogac4066 They're all closely related and the terminology is somewhat based on semantics, history, and laws. Brandy and Cognac (which is a type of brandy) aren't clear, though I don't know if they're distilled in the same way as vodka. As the video points out, most places require vodka to be distilled to almost plain ethanol and then be re-diluted to upwards of 40% ethanol to be called vodka.
      I couldn't find a standard for how rum is made (except for what it's made from), but I do think some white rums could technically meet the legal definition to be called vodka. Like you said in your original comment, this is technically unaged whiskey. Whiskey is defined by how it's aged, but also what it's made from. Could you make potato whiskey? Technically yes, the problem is a lot of places wouldn't let you call it whiskey and people wouldn't buy it. The reason people don't sell unaged rum as vodka is probably because it's a niche market with more upside.
      Also, ultimately vodka has historically been made with grain for a long time, not just potatoes.

      People in Kievan Rus’ were distilling mash as early as year 1000. At this point it was produced with basically anything people had on hand. Grains, vegetables or fruits. The earliest use we’ve found of the word Vodka is from 1405 in Poland, it was used as a general term to refer to medicine as well as other chemicals. Potatoes were never used to make vodka until the year 1746 when a Swedish scientist discovered that you can make it with potatoes. Even then it was made with a mixture of potatoes and grain.

      There may be local or traditional recipes and there may be company preferred ingredients but unlikely whiskey and bourbon, there isn't a requirement for any particular grain or starch to be in the mash.
