[QUOTE="greybeard, post: 1707259, member: 18945"] The charred oak barrels gives the product it's color and unique flavor as well as removing some unwanted 'stuff', and gives the product a more mellow smooth taste as opposed to straight moonshine. For bourbon, charred oak is a 'legal requirement. Different whiskeys use different degrees of char. It depends on how long the inside of the barrel is exposed to heat. Wine is aged in lightly charred barrels "toasted' they call it, but Makers Mark (one of favorites) is also aged in toasted barrels. [/QUOTE]
