Iam very new to distilling...Made a few small 5 gall batches....My first was a whiskey kit..with corn in it..
Then my others were just sugar mashes..I turned all into whiskey..Well i think it is.I aged in a small oak barrel.
My question is...Why did all my batches come out tasting the same? Came out like a jim beam to me? Iam not complaining but see all these recipes using corn and rye and ect which brings the cost way up vs a just a simple sugar mash..
Thanks for any good or bad replies....
