What are you drinking tonight?

Sounds like I have to add it to my try soon list!

The yellow spot is evidently aged in bourbon and sherry casks as well as casks of Spanish Malaga wine...which evidently gives it's fruitiness.

I always wanted to research how they go about that (I am a novice when it comes to Whiskey) - do they blend from whiskeys in each of the three to come up with a profile or do they transfer the whiskey so all of it goes in each of the three types of casks?

Not really sure myself. All I know is they come up with some good stuff!

Usually, it's some of it aged in each type of cask and then blended together. Sometimes they get fancy, do that and then finish the whole thing in another cask that would be mentioned.

Thank you so much for the edification- I’ve always wondered how the magic happens. Isn’t it amazing the ”science” behind all these things we enjoy?

I apologize if this doesn’t quite fit the thread…but I saw this perusing Hulu- thought @Fenster , @Luecke3262 & @dkeester would be interested.

I’m drinking Carolan’s Irish Cream btw

I thought that bottle would have been torpedoed by now (or whatever the Air Force version of torpedoed is )

That’s interesting - I like the bottle. Wage is the flavor profile?

It’s freezing out here! Wish I had a flask for a sip!

Someone take a shot for me!
