So I was thinking about how I love Johnny Walker and it's smokiness and I really want to impart that in a mead.
My first thought was to use some type of fruit and smoke it, but smokers get pretty hot and I imagine the fruit would fall apart, not to mention I'm not sure I really want a smokey/fruitiness.
Then I was thinking of just smoking the hell out of some oak or apple chips/steeping them in some vodka and adding them after the primary fermentation, or maybe smoking some poblano peppers, just spitballing here, what do you guys think, any suggestions?
