These make a variation. They change the flavour, and sometimes the strength. Your bar still uses the exact recipe.
- Rye whiskey
Start with the same amount. A common whiskey variation with a drier, spicier finish. Compare the bottle strengths.
- Blended Scotch whisky
Start with the same amount. A maltier variation, sometimes with smoke. It will no longer taste like a bourbon-based classic.
