VIRGIN OAK VS RECOOPERED (RECYCLED) OAK

A "recoopered barrel" refers to a barrel that has been refurbished/remade. The term "cooper" comes from "cooperage," which is the craft of making barrels. Our re-coopered barrels have been reconstructed from larger 200-300L barrels. The process involves breaking them down into smaller staves, assembling new steel bands, shaving back the oak to expose fresh oak and re-charring. Resulting in essentially a brand new barrel, but still able to pass on the flavours from the previous liquor held, along with subtle notes of oak and char. Resulting in a very unique flavour profile.
