Age it. Display it. Make it the trophy.

The 3 Litre American Oak Aging Barrel combines practical small-batch aging with enough physical presence to become a standout showpiece. Handcrafted from American white oak with a medium char, it works beautifully on a home bar, bookshelf or office display while still being a fully functional aging barrel.

3L — The Showpiece & Trophy Barrel

The 3L is a strong choice when presentation matters. Its larger 117 mm barrel face provides more room for names, dates, event branding and logos when personalized engraving is selected, making it especially well suited to commemorative and award applications.

Use it as a trophy barrel for golf or hockey tournaments, charity events, fundraisers, corporate awards, team recognition, retirements, sponsor gifts or milestone presentations. Instead of another plaque that sits on a shelf, this can be a trophy the recipient can actually use.

A Serious Home-Bar Display Piece

For the home-aging enthusiast, the 3L gives you more finished volume per batch without jumping immediately into the longer timelines and fill costs of a larger barrel. The American white oak can contribute deeper colour, vanilla, caramelized sugar, crème brûlée, toasted oak, spice and tannin as the batch develops.

Recommended First-Batch Aging

A typical first batch is approximately 6–7 weeks. Taste throughout the process because the spirit, storage conditions and your preferred oak profile determine the best finishing point.

Description

Take an ordinary spirit and make it extraordinary!

Give your drink more character

It’s the perfect gift for whiskey lovers and a unique way to mark a special occasion.

Smaller-sized barrels like this have a higher spirit-to-surface ratio, which gives you a bold smoky flavor in less time. To avoid over-oaking, go ahead and sample your batch as it ages (we know you want to). Just be sure to leave enough for your special batch to develop the smoothly aged flavor you’ve been craving.

Our 3-Litre oak barrels are the perfect size for the serious whiskey or wine connoisseur. In these 100% oak barrels, you can make larger batches of your favourite liquor, such as whiskey, brandy, or tequila.

These lovely barrels can hold the contents of three to four 750 ml bottles of wine or spirits and produce 102 1oz. shots. These 3-Litre oak barrels impart a light natural taste and a perfect medium char, why is why it is suitable for practically any drink. If you want a stronger flavour, and you can tolerate the wait, simply leave it in the barrel for a few more weeks.

Connoisseurs and everyday drinkers agree spirits and wine become top-shelf material after aging in a barrel. You can start with the cheapest wine, beer, whiskey, tequila, or even vodka, and the ageing process will transform the liquor’s profile. You can turn an average-priced liquor into a top-shelf version of itself just by using our oak aging barrel.

Simply return the contents to a bottle once you’ve acquired the desired flavour and begin working on your next creation. The options are limitless.

No nails or glue are used in the construction of our barrels, so they won’t affect the flavour of your personalised blend. The barrels are medium charred, giving any whiskey, tequila, gin, wine, or beer stored in them a delightful character.
Explore our personalisation options and let our oak aging barrels sit pretty in your home bar, mancave, or club or lodge display.

Note: Each barrel needs to be cured before use. Please review our curing instructions.
