Filibuster Dual Cask Bourbon Batch No. 1

Aged in new charred oak then finished in “white wine-seasoned French oak.” Tight sawdusty bitter nose. A lot of wood here going in different directions. First hit is the American oak (vanilla rich spice) followed quickly by creamy French oak then comes a wave of fruity wine wood character. Full in the mouth and a thick finish. Interesting but not particularly well integrated; maybe a case of “just because you can doesn’t mean you should.” Sourced whiskey.
