Whiskey – A Pint by Pint Interview with the Legend

The origins of whiskey, A topic that has veiled historians and drunks alike since ages and finally get the justification they deserve, all at Highfield. The word ‘whiskey’ in itself is ludicrous and full of mystery, but thanks to the world wide web, we now know where it originates from. The term whiskey made its mark quite late into this millennium. By the early 1500’s, the Irish started producing their own brand and the Scottish blokes started to distil a personalized version of the liquid gold, which is where the words ‘Scotch whiskey’ got conned. Although this isn’t for sure as history has a good track record in falsifying information, this story is quite believable. The word whiskey is an Anglo adaptation of the Classical Gaelic word ‘visce’ meaning water, and that roughly translates to "water of life". Quite evident But since then Highfield has managed to introduce a few more additions to the world of Whiskey, mainly being Gentle Touch Whiskey which starts and ends with a smooth flavor and the Kings Gold Blend whiskey, a drink for the manliest of man as the name suggests. If you are looking for some the best rum in India, Highfield produces that too.

So where did it all start?

Old Bushmills Distilleries. Yes, that is the oldest licensed distillery established in 1608 when a license was granted to Sir Thomas Phillipps by King James I to distil whiskey. And it was all uphill from that historic point in time.

Are there flavors to whiskey?

Master brewers around the globe have admittedly said that most of the awe-inspiring flavors of whiskey have been accidently discovered. But that is just a few of them. Most flavor oriented drinks, like the Gold blend whiskey by Highfield, have been carefully formulated through trial and error until they’ve met the standards required by the brewers.

The brewing process

Every organization has kept their trade secret or special recipies or brewing methods under strict lock and key. A lot of mystery surrounds the brewing process that Highfield uses to produce its superb liquor products, which in turn means that you will spend an entire lifetime drinking it and still not know what the secret to its amazing taste and smoothness is, if you care that is.

So why Highfield then?
