End of experiment.
March 3, 2020.
With just at about 1 month into the experiment, the gin has taken on a full blown burnt brown / mahogany color. Like bourbon. In only a month...surprisngly.
I took a few sips, and it’s obvious it’s past it’s prime. It’s now really woody, almost too tannic. Like biting a piece of oak dipped in acetone.
So...experiment has concluded...I don’t see this improving anymore. It’s all downhill from here. I think it peaked at right about 2.5 weeks. Now, it’s drain solvent...

@PBMichiganWolverine Thanks for the experiment - reward yourself with something excellent.
@Richard-ModernDrinking it was terribly wrong. Ruined a perfectly acceptable gin
As much as I appreciate the contribution of barrels to flavor, the idea of throwing a wooden stick into a bottle of spirit just seems wrong.
