New notes on this CAOL ILA 10 YEAR CASK STRENGTH scotch, aged in a sherry cask and bottled non chill-filtered! Click ye olde LINK IN PROFILE for deets on this tasty dram...!
Not a whiskey. Apple Jack. Bottled in bond and aged 8 years in an ex cognac cask. This @tomsfoolerydistillery store pick SiB from @klwines was buttery, bright, and sweet, perfect for sunny evenings. R.I.P. lil’ Apple Jack. Until next time... Cheers!
Nooooo! Broken cork! ...Luckily I’ve had a lot of experiences with those old vintage Wild Turkey corks. 😉 So this bottle of Old Charter Chinkapin Oak bourbon was rescued. Now to enjoy it...! Cheers!
