Rustic But Not Rough.
Whiskey / Bourbon is aged in oak barrels. Whiskey barrels are a vital part of the whiskey making process; as a matter of fact, many distillers consider barrels to be a part of their recipe. When whiskey is first distilled it is clear and not near as pleasant to drink as whiskey that has been aged in a barrel. Inside the barrel is where a whiskey’s flavor, color and mouth feel are developed. Whiskey gets its vanilla, caramel, coconut and wood flavors from the barrel.
