Description:

Introducing our exquisite 15L American Oak Barrel with a Medium Char, a must-have companion for spirits enthusiasts and craftsmen alike. Crafted from high-quality American oak, this barrel offers a unique and distinctive aging experience. The medium char level strikes a perfect balance, allowing for a gradual infusion of flavors and aromas. There are no liners or bladders like many other cheaper options on the market.These also boast superior 18-20mm thick oak staves, compared to many cheaper options on the market of around 10mm. This means your barrel will have less chance of leaking or leaching through the staves and also increase the longevity of your barrel and the flavours it will impart. This results in a smooth and sophisticated interaction between the oak and the stored liquid, creating a harmonious marriage of rich vanilla, caramel, and toasted notes. Whether you're aging your favourite port, whiskey, rum, or even experimenting with cocktails, our 15L American Oak Barrel with a Medium Char will enhance the maturation process, adding depth, complexity, and a touch of American craftsmanship to your creations. Embrace the art of aging with this exceptional barrel and unlock the true potential of your spirits.

    VIRGIN OAK vs RECOOPERED (recycled) OAK

    Virgin American Oak means that these barrels are constructed from unused brand new virgin American oak and then given a medium interior char which helps pass on the flavours of the oak and char to your liquor. These barrels typically impart stronger oak and char flavours compared to recoopered barrels which we also stock.

    A "recoopered barrel" refers to a barrel that has been refurbished. The term "cooper" comes from "cooperage," which is the craft of making barrels. Our recoopered barrels have been reconstructed from larger 200-300L barrels, the process involves breaking them down into smaller staves, assembling new steel bands, shaving back the oak to expose fresh oak and re charring. Resulting in essentially a brand new barrel, but still able to pass on the flavours from the previous liqour held along with subtle notes of oak and char. Resulting in a very unique flavour profile.

    Our American Oak range is recoopered from ex Bourbon or Sherry barrels, whereas our French Oak range is recoopered from red wine barrels.

    Excellent Barrell

    Love the quality and workmanship that has gone into this barrel. The tap is excellent and I love the screw in plug on top.
