Whisky scented oil?

[Anonymous No.1280706]

I've got some Ardbeg that I just love the smell of. So I wanted to try to make a candle or eventually maybe some soap with that scent in the foreground.

But of course the whisky won't mix with the wax or the oil. So does anybody have any ideas on how to get that whisky scent into some oil?

Right now my best idea is to mix up some whisky and oil and let them sit for a bit to let the water and alcohol evaporate and hopefully leave the oil with that scent.

Couldn't you see what the theoretical aroma pallet of Ardbeg is and try and replicate it with those scents? Would also be helluva lot cheaper than using delicious Ardbeg for candle experiments.

The main aroma is smoked peat... I can't imagine there's a good way to duplicate that aroma without smoking my own peat, which seems like much more of a headache.

are you some kind of Murican, or similar troglodyte species? Not content with adulterating The Water of Life with Coca-bloody-Cola and similar heresy, now want to let it evaporate, then set it on fire? Good god Man,. get a grip, and just drink the bloody stuff already. You'll smell like a bottle of it the next morning, for sure.

For fuck's sake I'm using like an ounce and a half for the candle and drinking some right now. If I want to drink more I'll go and buy more because I'm not fucking poor.

I'd say some experimenting with liquid smoke and regular peat might render interesting results.

At any rate, if I were to proceed with yer plan, I'd check whether I like the smell of a glass of it left to stand for a couple of days. I personally am not at all keen on how a glass an unrinsed after indulging smokey, peatey Scotch smells - and I generally go for Ardbeg, Talisker or Caol Ila.

Last time I opened a bottle of Ardbeg it stunk up half my house.

Yeah, there's a lot of whiskey scented oil available, but most of that is bourbon scented I think, and of those very few even actually smell anything like bourbon.

I want specifically "sctoch whisky" scent, and to be even more specific I want Islay scent, which is most distinctive for the smoked peat smell.

In doing googling I did manage to find that there's a store in Scotland that sells soaps scented with different brands of whisky, which sounds good but they don't ship to America.

I'm wondering if they actually get whiskey cask's and let the oil sit in those and maybe smoke some peat. I think that would give the oil that distinctive scent, but that's obviously out of the question for me to do at home

looks entirely legit (surprisingly..) Boss, desu - and if anyone was going to produce Ardbeg soap that reeked halfway like the real thing, prob be them. idk their problem with US shipping either, NiMh batteries and stuff, problem, sure, but this.. anyway, by interest:
Ardbeg Soap @ £4.25 a bar (85g)
Shipping to me be @ £3.95 flat
Shipping to you cheapest £8 (up to 2kg), tracked/signed for etc. £12.45
- so you talking approx £20 for the first bar, +£4.25 per piece for [however many up to 2kg]
put up a burner contact email by interest, do NOT fucking Paypal anyone anything, will reply on here first and give you an address you can confirm.
Theyre actually about 50 miles away from me, as the seagull flies. Which is about 200 miles and 2 hours on a boat, actually wanted to get there tho, fuck collecting it. Or as >>1281505
- dont have a good recommend tho.

thanks for the offer. I'm really more interested in an Islay scented candle than soap though. Plus paying for all that shipping seems a bit extravagant for a bar of soap.

np - dunno how soap got involved here either desu, prob same principle as candles with the scent n stuff tho.

some of it should mix. alcohol has both hydrophilic and lipophilic properties. i'd try melting the wax outside on a hotplate (no open flame), and spend a bunch of time stirring in whisky (don't be lazy now). any scents with good fat solubility should infuse into the wax. water should separate and layer.

Easy anon forget whiskey your anwser is tea!
lapsang souchong is a black chinese tea that is smoked in the production process, and really gives off a very strong smokey peat aroma as well as taste so thats your best bet.
As for turning it into a candle or soap you have multiple options.
>Putting loose tea leaves in whole.
>Using a pestle and mortar (or knife and rolling pin in a bow) to grind it up as small as possible and using that.
>or you could try a mixture of doing both that would probbaly work best.
However the more you spend on better tea leaves the more potent it will be, though much cheaper than using an exspensive drop of scotch like that for soap or candles...

I've never liked the taste or smell of tea and I'm pretty skeptical that that would be the smell I'm looking for but if I'm near a tea shop sometime in the next couple weeks maybe I'll look into it.

A combination of that and maybe food flavorings? I know from when I /diy/ vape juice I used food flavorings to create recipes for flavors. Ecigexpress is the site I used to get the concentrates, although I don't know how the whiskey one smells or if pg would mix with wax.

Just put some of it in a glass cup and a heating element under it, you're over thinking this.
