The Cask is better, IMO. More depth of flavor, probably has to do with the 127 proof vs the 112 proof of my DO 9 yr. Also, I think the double oaking adds a honey note which is lighter in profile, whereas the cognac finish adds a dark fruit note. I’m gonna get another The Cask soon, it runs about $25 more than the DO, but it’s worth it IMO.

ETA: is your DO 100% Willett mashbill? I know some aren’t, if not I can send you a sample of mine.

ETA2: honestly, the cognac finish pairs so well with the Willett profile that it really just tastes like a good purple top IMO, I don’t know if I could tell it was finished in a blind.

My double oak is 92%. I'd be happy to do another sample swap. I've got a couple of new purples since the last one we did. I'll send you an email soon.
