It’s truly not technically a city – it’s an unincorporated group that’s a part of the bigger Littlefield Township, which boasts someplace round 3,000 residents. Nestled in wooded nation, it’s removed from cities and crowded streets. There are extra animals than folks on this nook of the world, and the place is healthier for it.
Oden sits on Crooked Lake, whose streams finally run into the Lake Huron, becoming a member of the chilly waters that border Canada and the north. The preferred characteristic in Oden was as soon as the railroad depot, which introduced many guests to the city. Within the late Eighteen Eighties the facilities in Oden included three grocery shops, two bowling alleys, a boathouse, and a golf course. Summer season cottages have been constructed alongside the lakeshore, the place metropolis dwellers would steal away for a wistful season “up north.” It was a group constructed for pleasure – little recognized sufficient to stay untainted, however common sufficient to generate all the mandatory facilities.

Fox & Oden’s Double Oaked Straight Bourbon Whiskey like its sibling, Straight Bourbon Whiskey, is a mix of 8 to 15-year-old bourbons produced in small batches utilizing time-honored traditions. However, not like its sibling, it’s a twice-barreled bourbon completed in new, charred oak barrels. This second barrel ageing extracts a wealthy, oak taste with added complexity and depth.
GSN’s Remarks: Richly appointed nostril with a plethora of baking spices, vanilla and boozy whiskey balls. A light-weight entry on the palate that teases you with a feather contact, however rapidly transforms right into a powerhouse of intense oakiness. A dry, woody taste permeates the grain invoice, leaving any inherent sweetness incognito. The physique is medium, and the end is additional lengthy. We discover this whiskey to be excellent for an Outdated-Normal, Mint Julep or Gold Rush; basicaly any cocktail that calls for an additional little bit of sweetness. GSN Ranking: B+
