Regardless of whether the Service offers the functionality to contribute, you are solely responsible and liable for any content and information that you create, upload, post, publish, link to, duplicate, transmit, record, display or otherwise make available on the Service or to other Members, such as chat messages, text messages, videos, audio, audio recordings, music, pictures, photographs, text and any other information or materials, whether publicly posted or privately transmitted (“Contributions”). Aging must take place in a fresh, charred oak barrel. The Scottish whisky industry makes good use of the abundance of these ex-bourbon barrels, for maturing their Scotch. A mixture of the grains listed above are milled and then combined with water and yeast and allowed to ferment—turning it into what basically amounts to a low-ABV beer. This liquid, known as mash, is then distilled, typically twice, in column or pot stills. Once it reaches the appropriate strength, the distillate, known as white dog (or "white whiskey," i.e. moonshine), is put into new charred oak barrels and allowed to age. (There is no minimum length of time the spirit has to be aged, excepting that it must be aged for a minimum of two years to be called "straight bourbon.") Once it is mature, the whiskey is either "cut" with water or bottled at barrel strength. Unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise, your use of and membership to the Service are exclusively governed by Dutch law. We shall first try to settle any dispute over a dram of whisky. Disputes that cannot be settled over multiple drams of whisky shall be solely submitted to the court of Amsterdam, The Netherlands unless mandatory applicable law provides otherwise.Nothing in the Terms shall exclude or limit our liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or for death or personal injury resulting from gross negligence or willful misconduct by us. Nothing except water can be added. Other whiskies may have colours and flavourings added, although bourbon must be totally unadulterated.

The higher the alcohol content, the stronger the taste. "The higher proof bourbons will be good for mixing into Old Fashioneds or Manhattans because the whiskey flavor will still show though," says Sam Levy of Fern Bar in Sebastopol, California. "Sometimes 80 proof gets a bit weak when mixed, but isn't by any means bad! I'd go to a local bar and test a little nip of a few things to understand the differences." Without prejudice to the section Liability below, the Service may be temporarily unavailable during maintenance, updates, etc. We shall make reasonable efforts to inform you of any unavailability due to maintenance or updates. The characteristic flavors of bourbon are vanilla, oak—from the barrels in which it is aged—and caramel, but there are also bourbons with notes of honey, buttery toffee, fruit, spice like cinnamon, or smokiness. The tasting notes on the bottle are useful indicators of what to expect.

The interesting aspect about craft bourbons is each is unique in its own right. FEW is no exception. While I personally dislike the flavor of this particular bourbon, I will also say I don’t have anything else in my cabinet that tastes like it. It has the potential to be a far better bourbon if it could spend more time in the barrel to smooth out the rough edges and allow the complexity noticed on the nose to show through into the palate and finish. Alternatively, maybe the smaller barrels used for aging are bringing in too many tannins, and FEW should just move to larger barrels and longer aging altogether to allow this bourbon’s real potential to show through.
