Another experimental aged gin. The sweetness of the cognac cask doesn’t work as well as the oak cask IMO - the oakiness lends an almost botanical dimension which goes well with the rest, but the cognac is a bit at odds I think. Still, quite interesting!
Like bourbon cask ales, I’ve tasted and I’m just not on board. I like my Gin clear and botanical. All for experimentation though.
I agree about cask ales (though the Brooklyn Brewery did a couple some years ago that were fantastic) but Copperworks has a new oak cask gin that I also have (it's somewhere in this thread) and it works really well. Their standard gin is excellent too, very nicely botanical. I recommend giving it a try if you're in a state that allows alcohol shipments in.
I’ll look for it. We are in a golden age of distilling for sure. My liver cannot unfortunately support all the craft distillers and the majors. We ALL need to pitch in.😜
Enjoying a very tasty pale ale at Dallas International...center column, second beer down...ah, Texas!
I’ve been drinking Guinness from a very tender age, but this beautiful stout is simply outstanding! Dare I say better?
