I will not be getting another barrel to find out.Whiskybase B.V. This may be one of those occurrences where this particular barrel is simply not the best representative. I think the one saving grace it has is the 113 proof as that is what is carrying anything. On the initial pour, I had concerns and had hoped it would open up.
