Do you like getting more drink for your buck? The only difference between bottom shelf and top shelf liquor is that it was aged longer. How would you like the 20 year scotch taste for the 8 year old price? Or, turn your cheap bottle of whiskey, tequila, rum, bourbon, scotch, brandy or cognac in to a delicious bottle of single barrel, hand crafted reserve? What took them years to do in a large 55 gallon oak barrel you can do at home in just a few weeks. You can! You can also take a $40 bottle of wine and turn it in to a $400 bottle of wine. You can do it all in a Red Head Oak Barrel in just 4 – 6 weeks. These mini American Oak barrels are hand-made by a multi-generational Cooper. They make great gifts since they can be custom engraved for personal pride or great for corporate branding. You can now age and flavor your liquor and wine to the taste you prefer. Our oak barrels are available by size. We also offer Cigar Infusing Barrels. These American white oak barrels are charred on the inside, which is a process that caramelizes the sugar in the wood. Your favorite alcohol is poured into the barrel, sealed with a bung and aged to add depth and character. The spirit (or wine) literally pulls flavor out of the wood, infusing the liquid with earthy and vanilla tones. Hotter temperatures expand the spirit, pushing it into the wood and cooler temperatures draw the liquid and flavor out. This process is repeated everyday, for months. The barrels are pressure sealed with steel hoops, and comes with a spigot, bung and stand. Perfect for aging any store bought spirit (or even moonshine) or custom cocktail

Great product and customer service!
I normally don't leave reviews, however I felt it was an order for my experience with Red Head Barrels. My personalized barrel came well packaged, in great condition, with everything listed. The craftsmanship was better than I had expected, and the engraving was flawless. After following the instructions, the barrel only seeped liquid for a day (as noted to be expected during curing process) and has since been leak free (no need for wax). So far, so good. I also ordered a cleaning kit, which arrived missing a few items. I contacted them about the issue via email, after 8pm on a Friday night. I was surprised when I received a response in less than a hour! They apologized for the error and said that the items would be in the mail the following day. I also inquired about a replacement bung, which they promptly sent out as well, free of charge. All exchanges were friendly and professional, and my replacement items arrived a few days later.Overall, I would recommend, and would buy again (probably will!). Well made product, and a company that stands behind it with great customer service!

Hermosos, útiles, y de gran calidad.
Vivo en el Perú, y compré este producto (2 barriles de 2 y uno de1 litro) sabiendo que si no funcionaban no podría devolverlos. Algunos comentarios decían que los barriles goteaban y que no servían. Llegaron antes de la fecha ofrecida (a Miami) y cuando los traje al Perú y abrí la caja me sorprendió su belleza, su buen acabado, su olor a madera suave, y la claridad y honestidad de las instrucciones. Las seguí con cuidado y en 12 horas los tres barriles están hinchados y listos para recibir sus contenidos finales el día de mañana. Si no estas dispuesto a seguir las instrucciones, tener paciencia, y desarrollar una pasión, este producto no es para ti. Pero si lo estas, creo que este proveedor es top of the line.Si no tienes experiencia en el uso de madera te recomiendo hacer un poco de investigación, en la propia pagina web de red head barrels. Temas como (1) el tiempo de maceración en relación al volumen de barrilete (cuanto menor es el volumen, mayor madera otorga al liquido y por tanto el tiempo debe ser menor), o (2) cuanto mas nuevo es el barril mas rápido otorga la madera, que cuando es un barril usado muchas veces, etc.Yo usaré uno para el vinagre que hacemos en casa hace 40 años con los restos de vino; otro para mi scotch, y el mas chiquito para preparar mis Negronis una semana antes de mis reuniones. Una vez cargados los barriles, probaré cada dia unas gotas de su contenido, para saber como va, y una vez listo a mi gusto, envasaré en vidrio. Si no consumo tanto, en el tiempo entre una maceración y otra los tendré llenos de agua filtrada SIN CLORO con un poquito de vinagre, scoth, o Negroni que después botaré, cuando vaya a preparar mas. Sobre el sabor o aroma que otorga la madera, actualizaré este comentario luego de mi primera cosecha, que no se cuándo será.Si todo sale como parece que saldrá, compraré mas para regalar a mi familia y amigos.

Do not stop leaking
After 2 weeks with water, it keeps leaking and a black charcoal liquid came out of it.I receive a wax from the seller and applied it to the barrel following the specification.Two weeks after, it keeps leaking.Stay away from this.

Red Head Barrel's has the best customer service imaginable!!!!
Bought a 10L Barrel and had a leaking problem. Called Red Head and they not only helped me with my leaking problem but they went above and beyond and sent me a new barrel when we were unable to resolve the problem with the first barrel. Dealt with amazing people through the whole ordeal. Still waiting for my whiskey to finish aging but I have tasted it and it is well on its way thanks to this Charred Oak Barrel from Red Head!! Will definitely buy more barrels.
