I ended up with 10.5 gallons after cuts. I separated the cuts into 2, the first and second half. The first half is being kept white @ 79.5%, the second half went into a used 5 gallon bourbon barrel @ 74%.
Tasting of the 79.5% white mixed 50/50 with water, to around 40%:
Nose- Sweet, grapes, dark fruits like plums, rummy, sugars, slight ethanol, mild industrial notes
Taste- Thick mouthfeel. Sweet, grape soda, dark fruits, apricots, pineapple, sugars, mild industrial notes
Finish-Grape soda, rummy, sweet, more rum, dark fruits. 20 mins later my mouth is still full of rum like I just had it. Same at 30!
