I too aged some with charred hickory several weeks ago.
I got it out a few nights ago and had some shots.

It was magnificent if I must say so.
Amber/Brown with hickory flavor on tongue and bourbon flavor in throat.
I will be repeating this process again!

yes me as well bud.
This time was my first aging / hickory run and it was sort of trial and error.
Next time I plan on documenting the process in detail so I can repeat when ever the urge strikes me.
And possibly share it to others as well if anyone is interested
