Introduction

First, I don't expect many to find this for a while. I'm going to practice for a bit before I advertise it, so this will be bland and quite generic until I take some time to make a proper site. Anyway, I am going to highlight some of my favorite topics here and steal blatantly from some other blogs for some things that I like. My apologies to those whose formats I am stealing. I'll work and tweak to add something new, but that might not happen for a long time.

The title of the blog refers to barrels (both bourbon and cork) and stockings (as in the nice equal length oversleeves on vintage Bach trombones).  I know the overlap on those is pretty small, and I'll try to sort it out on here somehow.

For now, yesterday's drink was a nice Canadian Whisky, Lot 40. I have a review typed up, just need to be on a different machine to post. I plan to have singular tasting notes, blind comparisons, and hopefully some other interesting tidbits.

Until then, cheers,
Andy
