I bought 2 barrels about 2 years ago and finally got around to filling the second one about a month ago. After a few days I noticed there was a leak, actually there was a split in the stainless barrel. I emailed and was just hoping the customer service was as good as I hoped and it was. They replied to my email on a Sunday and had a new barrel on the way to me in a few days. The new barrel is as beautiful as the old one and as a plus I have used some of the wood from the bad barrel to oak a few projects while building up my stock. I can’t remember that kind of customer service at any place I deal with.
Beautifully crafted barrels and simply the best solution for small batch aging. The spigot makes sampling convenient and easy. Chris was extremely helpful when making my selection. 10/10 would recommend.
Unpacked the barrel and filled with water. Minor to almost no leak at all. After about two hours it was sealed. Noticed a small crack in the bung but thankfully there was a second one in the shipment. It will be long time when i can fill it with spirits and even more time to have a taste but im looking forward to it.
high quality and packaged well with clear instructions. Will be buying additional barrels.
As always, top quality and super fast shipping!! This barrel is number 10!
