[QUOTE="Lee VanRoss, post: 1707265, member: 40072"] I wondered how long it would be for someone to catch on. Grandpa told us it is about as easy to take the oak to the whiskey as it is to put whiskey in a barrel. He also mentioned something about Revenuers having a nose for oak barrels. I do know the oak (Red , White. or Burr was put through a 1 minute [I]alligator burn [/I] before going in the jar. Whiskey seems to 'amber up' faster in a jar than a vat. Please do not fire up a block of green oak and come back on here complaining about the results as there is much more to the craft than a peck of rye , a bag of sugar and some yeast and water. I was told the Depression was a little less severe thanks to a thirst for a quality product. I believe GB to be right about the bourbon plus the barrels are only used one time. (for bourbon) [/QUOTE]
