Crafted from an authentic bourbon brand barrel head, this piece is planed for flatness, preserving original details like stains, stamps, paint, brands, wax, spiles, saw marks, and dirt. Loose material is trimmed from the char layer, joints are repaired, and a fresh char layer is applied, making each piece unique and full of character.
Includes: Two bungs - one used in testing and a spare.
Our barrels are sourced from a broker and may have limited identification details, though stamps and markings provide some hints into their origins.
Price is a little steep but you will not be disappointed. The quality is outstanding. Shipping was quick and packaging was top notch. Time will tell how well it ages spirits. Gonna be a loooong couple of years to wait and see…. HA!!

XB2 with Benchmark Full Proof
Chris was extremely helpful with picking a cask to age Benchmark full proof. The casks are easy to fill and use. I am looking forward to tasting my project 6-12 months from now and hoping 2 years goes by quickly for some tasty aged bourbon!

Great barrels!
I’ve received a handful of barrels over the last year and the quality is always top notch! I’m excited to see how this ex bourbon barrel does with my peach brandy I filled it with. These barrels are a game changer when it comes to aging spirits at home!
