Hi all,
I have just noticed a white cloudy sediment near the bottom of a bottle of BWKO.
Picture of it not great but best I could do with torch under the bottle.

For those with a keen eye it is a Bundy 5 bottle. If you haven't tried this stuff, take my advice and don't.
It was run in two spirit runs in early January, cuts made and then combined and aged in demijohns at 65% with bourbon barrel chunks from home brew shop and toasted strips from an old barrel I have had outside at home for years.
Filtered through kitchen paper and coffee filter paper about 3 weeks ago and diluted to 40%.
I am sure that the bottles were clean and rinsed well to remove any detergent residue.
There is the same cloudy appearance in the demijohn when I look closely but harder to see due to the oak still in there and the darker colour before dilution. The other demijohn from later cuts in the same runs has no evidence of the same (very glad because the second demijohn has the better gear in it).
It still tastes good because I had started sipping it before seeing the residue in the light as I was putting the bottle back up in the cupboard.
Has anyone else seen the same and any ideas on what it is?
Thanks for any advice.
Cheers,
Richard
P.S. If this is in the wrong section would a mod please move it for me?
