Someone said it already but make a batch to drink white and a batch for aging
You have two ears and one mouth for a reason....

I have a couple drinks a week, so no problem for me. I DO have a problem with storage space for my aging stock tho ... a good problem to have, I guess.
🎱 The struggle is real and this rabbit hole just got interesting.
Per a conversation I had with Mr. Jay Gibbs regarding white oak barrel staves: “…you gotta get it burning good.”

its better to think like a fool but keep your mouth shut,then to open ur mouth and have it confirmed

Plus have small casks that you mark for a minimum of 6 months for aging.Saltbush Bill wrote: ↑Sun Oct 21, 2018 3:37 am A bigger boiler run more often helps get plenty of well aged stock.

I had the same problem. But, when I got rid of “the problem”, she cleaned out my 401(K)...but, she did leave me the stash of casks!
