Hi All,
I found out one of my bottles had been missed in the rotation and it had set with five sticks of oak in it for WAAAYYYY too long. I poured a bit and gave it a taste and I could taste the wood, the tannins and a slightly burnt/mossy taste along with everything else. I think it had been sitting for two months. My bodies first reaction was to back away as soon as I tasted it. I tried cutting some of it with a little wheat, but all it did was insult the wheat and then jump on it. I MAY have reduced the off taste by 10%.
Anyone have any suggestions for me before I try anything else?
