Continuing with the experiment:
Feb 24th, approx 3 weeks post stave insertion—-
It’s been about 3 weeks since, in the name of science, I’ve been doing this experiment. It’s an oak stave inserted into the gin, and regular 3-4 week sips are taken to see how oak impacts the original plain London gin, and at which point in time does it peak.
First is the color—-it’s taken on a light brown color now. Almost like a watered down American bourbon.
Taste: slight improvement. I’m getting a slightly more oaky flavor, a bit more complex than the original plain gin.
I’m wondering at what point will this be at peak.

@PBMichiganWolverine Yeah I was thinking..'he probably didn't realise' :-)
@Soba45 oh...if I had known I’m at 700, I would’ve selected something a bit more worthy.
Oh I see this was your 700 taste. Congrats.. finally reached more tastes than bottles you own..haha :-)
@Rick_M im losing the patience...and I’m normally a very patient man
This app is getting more unstable and not less. Maybe it’s time to stop adding new features and shore up what they already have. It’s nice to have patience, but I’m not sure too many of us will persevere through another six months of this instability.
Ah i cleared cache and forced stopped but no luck. I can just see summary comments in feed now🤯
@cascode the app simply is just crashing on me and can’t view comments. Desktop is a bit better...but it’s frustrating.
@PBMichiganWolverine @Soba45 Curiously, I have very few problems, with either the browser or app version.
@Soba45 @cascode this app is getting worse. I can’t view comments using the app, and the website version makes it difficult to view it. If a social app can’t allow the social part of it, what’s the point? I’m at the verge of quitting this app
Argh this app sucks. I saw @cascode s partial comment in the feed and went to view the full comment in the review and I can no longer see comments it appears... the fun never ends...
Who knows - so many variables. Having had a half dozen barrel-aged gins now I have to say I'm not a fan of this fashion. I'm yet to taste one that is in any way superior to a good fresh gin.
I’m guessing it already has peaked ☹️
Either 10 years from now or never I'm guessing..haha
