Toasted to Perfection

Rob and Mark crack open Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel Heritage Barrel Toasted Barrel and dive into what makes a barrel toasted vs. charred, from Roman casks and medieval coopers to the alligator char and modern finishing moves. Michter’s, Elijah Craig, Woodford, Westland, and St. Augustine all make cameos while the guys geek out on hemicellulose, lignin, and the sweet “mouth-hug” results: creamy vanilla, caramel, banana bread vibes, a little crème brûlée. Laughs, lore, and a pour that might become your new favorite. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
