We recommend the chestnut barrels especially in the toasting stages Medium to Forte!The barrel is equipped with a silicone bung as standard.

They are made from Ash wood (Fraxinus excelsior), an old wood type for barrel-making. The barrels are for aging of distillates, such as grain and fruit spirits, but without release some of its color. This wood ensures a balanced maturation through a restrained micro-oxygenation without colorants. The distillate matures in the pureness of its nature and the taste is pleasantly soft.
