Unlike the rest of the white whiskeys I picked up for the Infinity Barrel Project, the California Clear White Whiskey is aged.

Devil’s Share Moonshine Review
Moonshine, white whiskey, call it what you will, stuff like Devil's Share Moonshine is really just new-make.

One of the most significant differences between the Ghost and other white whiskey is that this one spent 1 year getting cozy … [Read more...] about Jim Beam Jacob’s Ghost Review
