OK a new plan.

Post by Rocky_Creek »

This winter I will finally distill all the wine I have that I can't really drink well because of allergies. I'm going to be making a lot of rum. I will also empty a 1 year old barrel of ujsm.

I'm thinking of filling the barrel with rum, constantly testing until its acceptable, draining and refilling with rum once or twice more. After all the rum (stored in demijons ) is done, fill with the brandy and leave it. This way I'm not locked in to year cycles and don't need a new barrel.

I figure those other two barrels of ujsm will be opened at 2 1/2 years and 4 years, plus any time delayed by drinking rum.
You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, and them's pretty good odds.
