Whisky barrel 500 l - Swiss - twice selected

Freshly emptied approx. 500 l whisky barrels from the Bernese Oberland, ex Sherry Oloroso - ex Whisky.

Barrels with a good story – just like your product!

These barrels come from a Swiss distillery where they gave but also received, an exchange involving massive flavours from both sides.The previous fillings with Oloroso Sherry and Whisky give off an incomparable aroma: a spicy and deep sweetness, paired with the malty and slightly rough character of the whisky still leave you amazed. The story of these barrels is completed by the original Swiss Customs branding, but their availability is limited.

Dimensions 450 - 500 l approx.:
Stave length: 114-124cm
Ø Belly: 90-118cm
Ø Head: 69-79cm

As standard, the barrels 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, external stress cracks, 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 for sensory and technical defects. We assume no liability for cracks or splits that occur during maturation. A possible and a reasonable repair is not under guarantee.

Pictures are examples, colour variations are possible.
