Bourbon barrel 190 l – Barton

Freshly emptied Bourbon barrel 190 l – Barton 1792 Distillery

These American Oak bourbon barrels, also known as American Standard Barrels, are delivered direct to our warehouse from the Barton 1792 Distillery and are therefore still fresh. The barrels from Kentucky were used to store and age Barton Distillery straight bourbons for at least three years.  The barrels were charred before their first use to create the soft, sweet flavours.

These Bourbon barrels will continue to impart their incomparable flavours to the next product they are used for. Barton Distillery bourbon is renowned for its special soft, malty taste. The notes of vanilla, caramel, dried fruit and smoke through to chocolate, underlined by a light freshness, are only released by a wooden barrel. This interaction produces an especially complex and structured flavour profile.

Used barrels lend themselves beautifully to the enrichment of your products: to further develop the flavours or add a new note to the flavour profile.

Dimensions ca. :
Length of staves: 89 cm

By default, the drums are equipped with a used wooden or plastic bung. If you want a new silicone bung, you can order it under accessories (type standard - C16).

Used wooden barrels: Notches in the wood or, in certain circumstances, an uneven base, do not constitute a quality defect, but stem from the idiosyncrasies of the production method and the prior use of the barrels. The usage of the barrel will not be affected by those! The barrels are very carefully checked by us at the exit control against sensor and technical errors. We assume no liability for cracks or splits that occur during maturation. A possible and a reasonable repair is not under guarantee.
