What whiskey is Amy McGrath enjoying today?
All right. Well, before we get into it, I am super excited to talk about my whiskey today. Okay, what I'm drinking. Because this is my current favorite. And it is called... Our Bicky Highland Rye 1794 Single Grain Scotch Whiskey. It's from the northeast coast of Scotland. And honestly, I don't know a whole lot about it. All I know is, I love it. Das ist alles, was ich weiß. Und hier ist, warum ich dazu eingetreten bin. Ich habe nicht viel, ich habe nicht viel internationales Whisky getrunken, aber mein Mann hat mir dieses Set gekauft. Es ist ein um die Welt Whisky-Tasting-Set und er hat es bei Costco gesehen. And it was like 300 or 400 bucks. But it was amazing. It was like 25 different whiskeys. And we got it for Christmas.
And in the sort of dark ages of January and February, every other night or so, we'd take two or three of these whiskeys out and we'd do a tasting. And one of them was this Arbicci Rye. And I absolutely fell in love with it. I cannot... tell you because i'm not a super connoisseur of you know the smell and the taste but i i this is absolutely the best i have ever tasted so so that's what i'm drinking today i can i can i talk about our bicky a little bit for you amy why it's so unique so i'll drink you talk well okay that's oh by the way i i wish there was some whiskey in here there might be i'm not quite sure it's just a water bottle but who knows what's in this water bottle amy So, Arviki, so as you know, most traditional Scottish and Irish whiskeys are malt, right? A combination like, for instance, Scottish whiskeys really like to stay 100% malt, whether even if they're blends or they're single malt. When you're looking at Irish whiskeys, right, it's a combination of malted and unmalted rye when you talk about their Irish whiskey.
So what's really special about your whiskey, Amy? ist, dass es eine grüne schottische Whisky ist, oder es ist eine Rye Whisky, die nicht so unangenehm ist. Ich meine, es ist sehr unangenehm und nicht so üblich wie die anderen Whiskys, die in Skotland und Irland sein werden. Das ist der Grund, warum wir, wenn Christine und ich in Irland und in Skotland waren, wir haben ihre Rye Whiskys probiert. Und ich erinnere mich auf einige Rye-Tastings. Ich weiß nicht, ob ich die Arbicci hatte. Aber Amy, der Grund, warum das Whisky so speziell ist, ist, dass mein Wunsch ist, dass es ein bisschen Toast auf dem Rye gibt. Sie toasten wahrscheinlich den Rye, wie sie den Malz machen. Und das gibt dir wahrscheinlich ein wenig, nicht nicht gepeatet,
Not peated, but probably a toasted rye or bicky, which gives you a little spice. And it's probably a little bit sweeter on the end than a lot of American whiskeys. I bet you it is. Well, you know, it's definitely spicy and I absolutely love it. And there's no, that's one of the things about whiskey is everybody's different. You know, my husband doesn't love this the way I love it. But I don't love some of the things that he loves. And so that's really cool. And that's why I love that little whiskey-tasting kit that he bought.
