I think you are right, whiskey takes on the oak flavor, can's say much about it, can't drink those kinds of distilled goods LOL! We have a bunch of hickory at the other place and a nice little wood lot, older forest, I've never cut in there, but the power company when clearing did bring some huge oak out, my father has a nice supply of wood to keep his shed full.
That black birch I do not recall ever seeing, though there is a cluster of nice size trees in an old pasture, which is now a young forest, that look more like black cherry, but the bark never got rough, its smooth with traits like white birch, or black cherry when its young. I will have to look that one up.
And it does look we have some of those black birch, the bark in photos I just saw appear to be the same, taste test ought to confirm. It would seem like mint, this would deter rodents, I spotted one of these near the house, its funny how I recall exactly where all the odd ball, obscure trees are around this place, seems I always take note of trees for some reason or another.
