Smiley Burnett has his ‘ usual outstanding comedy role, and Louise Currie has the feminine lead with Edith Fellows, Bill Henry, George Ernest and Emmett Vogan in the supporting cast. NOTE—From timetotime, in this space, there will appear an article which we hope will be of interest to our fellow Americans. This is number twenty-three of a series. SCHENLEY INTERNATIONAL CORP., NEW YORK —in the“wood” “Aged in the wood” is a familiar expression, but few people really know how important a part barrels lay in the maturing of whiskey. gflme time ago we wrote a little piece entitled “BARRELS,” but we could only scratch the surface of this subject in an article of 300 or same. As you know, whiskey is colorless when it comes from the still. At this stage it is drawn into charred oak barrels. Then the casks are placed in bonded warehouses. (All whiskey is so stored.) In the ware- house the whiskey usually remains for four or more years, under con- trolled conditions of temperature, humidity and ventilation. The min- ute the whiskey gets into the bar- rels things begin to happen—slowly of course. Color gradually begins to appear, and the color of whiskey is derived exclusively from the charred oak staves. At first the liquid appears yellowish, then it takes on an amber shade, and later, when it is properly matured, it has a deep reddish-brown color. While whiskey is in the “wood” it also undergoes definite and in- tended changes in aroma and taste characteristics, because of continu- ous reactions occurring in the bar- rel, For instance, the liquid takes certain extractives from the wood; then there is oxidation of the or- ganic substances -in the whiskey and of the materials extracted from the wood. Some new products are formed in the whiskey as a result of a reaction among the various organic substances. All of these “‘constituents’” in whiskey, pro- duced by nature, contribute to the well-known flavor—so easily rec- ognizable by you as “‘whiskey taste.” And may we remind you again that nature does most of the work; man controls she natural processes —importantly. Sometime soon, in another arti- cle, we will tell you more of these scientific controls exercised in our very modern distilleries. “Men in white” are constantly working ob- Jjectively to keep our Industry under the canopy of the slogan—AMERI- CANS MAKE THE BEST OF EVERY- THING!
