Blending whiskey is like being a taste scientist! Here's how to do it safely and properly:
- Start with small amounts (1-2 oz each) of different whiskeys
- Use measuring tools like mini graduated cylinders or shot glasses
- Try mixing different proportions (like 70/30 or 50/50)
- Take notes on what tastes good
- Always label your blends
Pro tip: Start with just two different whiskeys until you get the hang of it. Think of it like mixing paint colors - start simple!
