Quality
This is an amazing barrel. No leaks at all and smells amazing. Can't beat the quality of these.
I’ve been using BadMotivator Legacy Barrels for aging alcohol for a while now, and this is my 10th barrel – that alone should speak to the quality and consistency of their craftsmanship. Every single barrel I’ve received has been well-constructed, durable, and delivers exceptional results.
The wood is high quality, the build is tight, and there are no leaks or structural flaws. The aging process is smooth, and the flavors develop beautifully over time. Whether you're aging whiskey, rum, or any other spirit, these barrels deliver fantastic results.
If you're serious about aging your own spirits and want a reliable, well-made barrel, Bad Motivator is the way to go. Highly recommend!
