I bought barrels from Southern Kentucky Distillery (SKD) 2 years ago. Waiting for them to get to at least 4 before selling. They currently make a 2 yr cherry Bourbon which is pretty good and has won some awards, but I don't think it's worth $60 each

Speaking of bourbon...what's the thought on these high-alcohol content products...such as Elijah Craig (140 proof). I've read that since these are typically not 'cut' with water, that more of the flavors and 'essence' come through...but Jeebus! 140 proof? Can you taste ANYTHING at those levels?

I like the barrel proof stuff. Just like all bourbon, some are better than others. My BIL bought a bottle of Garrison Brothers Cowboy Bourbon a while back. It was fantastic. 143 proof if I recall. Drank like a lower proof. Very smooth all things considered. Packed a punch of flavor and effect. 😋
