Brochure: used and new oak barrels

Pre-Used Barrels

We look for the used barrel that suits your project. Thanks to our network of reliable partners we can supply exactly the barrel you need. We also offer STR barrels, to give your spirit a different character or to create something new with the skill of our coopers.

See the used barrels up to 150 litres and from 190 litres, and the STR barrels.

How do we find the right barrel?

Thanks to our network of partners and suppliers and our years of experience, we can find the barrel for your project. You do not have to search cooperages and producers yourself. Tell us what you are looking for via contact.

How fresh is a used barrel?

Freshness matters. Freshly emptied barrels are checked quickly, repaired where needed and then shipped to you.

Can old barrels be refurbished?

With our recoop programme we refurbish and repair old barrels, so they last for years again. If you wish, we plane the barrels, remove old residues and give them a computer-controlled toast or char to your specification. For a repeat order we supply exactly the same toast or char.

Then we ship the barrels safely and well wrapped.

New Barrels

We are proud of the quality of every barrel we make and of the team that builds them with care and craftsmanship. That is why all our new barrels carry our logo and the signature of the cooper who made them. So for every barrel you know who made it.

Which wood are the barrels made of?

Our barrels are mostly made from French oak sourced from the Limousine and several other regions in France. We also have a range of speciality wood such as Chestnut, Cherry, Acacia, Ash or a hybrid of any mix of wood. At the moment we have a limited supply of Mizunara oak.

Which sizes are there?

We make barrels from 50 – 600 litres. We also make casks and vats to order.

How is the quality checked?

Every barrel is checked by our master cooper and signed by the cooper who made it. All barrels are numbered individually.
