Is whiskey acidic? The short answer is yes, but this does vary. Since most whiskeys are composed of ethanol (drinkable alcohol) and water, they are pretty neutral on the pH scale, at least initially. However, whiskeys are a product of a fermentation and aging process that does release chemicals with some acidic properties. The addition of other flavoring chemicals can change the acidity of whiskey as well. Interestingly, whiskey isn’t as acidic as other alcoholic beverages, like beer and wine.
