Small Batch Straight Whiskey

Not what I expected. Wasn’t prepared to make my own bourbon flavoring by adding packet to vodka and waiting weeks to use it. I should have bought what I needed at a liquor store.

Definitely not the flavor I expected while it aged in a mini barrel. I used the packet with Kirkland American Vodka. I taste tested every week for 12 weeks. Just too disgusting to drink. It is fine to add to cake mix or brownie mix. But I cannot serve this in a glass.

Upon opening the little package the smell was actually really good and I can see that the essence might be really good for cooking. I used it per the directions with vodka to make a bootleg whiskey. And I am not convinced. After adding the essence to the alcohol the bottle didn't smell like anything. I didn't expect a complex mix of different flavors but there was literally no smell at all. Same with the flavor. It tasted like I poured a shot of whiskey into a pint of vodka. Instead of a barrel I used an oak infusion spiral for aging. After adding I still don't get anything besides the flavors added from the oak. Like I said. It might be great for cooking but for making a bootleg whiskey it's really disappointing and quite useless.

I have been using 1000 oak barrelproducts for years. They are the masters when it comes to adjusting your hooches proofs and taste.Thank you 1000 oak barrel company.HAPPY HOLIDAYS

Itz da shoz

gave me the bourbon flavor I needed for an ice cream recipe without so much alcohol it would interfere with the freezing.
