I have found cherry wood to give better flavour in 6 months than oak in 3 years ,unfortunately I keep running out of cherry aged brandy.

Ooo. Might give a kale wash a go then.

How are you processing the cherry wood after cutting? 8)

Snap Mash lovely flavour. Good for poultry.
I recon it might age a drop of Rum quite
nicely.

I'm sure the foodie section on here has a pic of my set-up, basically a dustbin with a few drilled holes and a smoke generator.
Not Rocket science.
