Red Stag? Had it at the bar some while back mixed with coke. Not bad, what I remember. Never had it straight.

I know there are other brands now but I have not tried any.

Cherry bourbon? Wouldn't that be the "White Owl" of the bourbon world? Why would anyone flavor a good bourbon? Opps, guess I just answered my own question.

Ah, dude, bourbon by law must be aged in charred oak barrels. Are you being funny, or is someone actually marketing a bourbon as "charred oak"?

Charred Oak Bourbon, Full Old Time 100 Proof

• American Made, Small Batch

• Hand Made One Bottle at a Time

• All Natural Product, No Artificial Coloring

• Temperature Controlled Warehouse to Insure Quality and Smoothness

Also gotta laugh at the "American made" tag which is also a legal requirement for bourbon.

Finally, it ain't made "one bottle at a time". Don't know how they justify saying that, even to themselves. Marketing is EVERYTHING in the high volume liquor business.

In all fairness though, I did see a couple of reviews and they said it didn't suck. Not great but, not sucky either.

I call BS on that one. Bourbon is aged in charred oak barrels. The warehouses are not conditioned spaces on purpose. The natural heating and cooling of the oak barrels in the warehouses allows the barrel staves to absorb and express the liquor within the individual barrel and adds color and tase to the product. The heating also allows some of the product to evaporate through the wood. The lost liquid is called the "Angel's Share". As a barrel ages for a longer time, there is less and less liquid in the barrel, concentrating the flavor of the remaining spirit. After 20 to 30 years of age, there remains only 15 - 20 gallons of liquid in the 56 gallon barrel. That is why the longer aged products can command the higher prices, not to mention the darker color and smoother taste.

Any bourbon manufacturer that claims a temperature controlled aging warehouse improves the product has been sampling too much of their product.
