Date of emptying
Freshness is paramount and we can arrange to have just emptied barrels repaired and shipped to you quickly to ensure freshness. Our cooperage and warehouse team are experienced in maintaining barrel freshness direct to your cellars.
New life in old barrels
Our barrel refurbishment programme breaths new life into old barrels. Barrels can be refurbished and repaired to ensure they are fit for many years service in your cellars. If you want we can regenerate your barrels, removing old residues and adding a custom toast or char to your specifications.
Lastly we will ship them to you safely and protectively wrapped, ready for your latest project.
New Barrels
We take pride in the quality of every single barrel we create and so do the team that build them. That’s why every barrel we produce is branded with our logo and signed by the cooper that created it. We call this our ‘Signature Line’. It’s our assurance to you that our barrels are perfect.
Wood
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.
Sizes
We make barrels from 50 – 600 litres. We also make casks and vats to order.
Quality
Every barrel is inspected by our master cooper and signed by the cooper who made it. All are individually serial numbered and guaranteed for years.
