This has an odd cloudiness that I guess comes from the “accelerated” aging process. Sweet nose of corn, charred oak, plum, toffee, rye and rubber. On the palate strong untreated lumber, with rye, toast and a touch of caramel sweetness. Overall I’m not impressed with the result; it doesn’t seem aged, but rather a mixed bag of immature flavors with wood chips thrown in. The silver lining here is that it’s a great illustration of the fact that, as far as I can tell, you can’t fake a barrel.
