New Booze for Sackygate

buffalo trace has their version out already. all it is is unaged corn liquor that has not yet become whisky by sitting in charred oak barrels.

it is an interesting taste but it will give you a nasty headache the next day. it reminds me a bit of tequila in both taste and effect.
 
Did the bourbon trail in May and they were pushing this hard. Very Smart IMO. No evaporation loss, no time or costs associated with aging.

Only cheap ass tequila will do that to you. ie; Sauza, Jose Cuervo, Tarantula Plata. The good stuff won't
 
White bourbon!!!! That is just not right.

As for hangovers; toxicologists testify that for the most part they come primarily from the VOLUME of the ethyl alcohol consumed. There are some ingredients in booze, mostly in the darker booze such as brandy, bourbon, red wine and such that minimally add to the hangover.
 
So 150+ years ago they make their corn whiskey and sell it down the Mississippi. Only they ship it in barrels which they recycle - to sterilize the barrels before using them again, they fire them creating a thin layer of char on the inside of the barrel. Someone notices that by the time whiskey gets to New Orleans, it tastes better than it did when it left the distillery up in Kentucky. Some guy with the last name of Daniels figures out that he can filter his whiskey through charcoal and get that same flavor without having to ship the product in used barrels down to New Orleans, and a legend is born.

Fast forward to today: some business operations cost cutting type notices how much the charcoal filtering costs, and asks why do it, why not sell the whiskey without that step - it will save both time and money. And so a product, that has the innovative step which made said product superior blatantly removed from the process, is now being sold on the market... and apparently people are buying it. Which proves something pretty depressing about society today, but I'm too hungover from drinking this crap brew to figure out what it is...
