Here's the best hint I can give - go out, find a legit charred whiskey barrel that's been converted to a planter. (like the pic below) Snap the rings off, which takes it to strips, then cut cross wise into squares. Add 3 or 4 squares to your fruit wood (no mesquite or hickory, as they're too harsh - only apple, cherry, apricot, pear).

The combination of the whiskey soaked white oak and fruit woods are the best. Just the helpful hint from your uncle Joe here.
