These are the real thing. Full-size 53-gallon American white oak barrels from Kentucky bourbon distilleries. Each one spent years aging bourbon before the distillery retired it. We bring them to Vancouver Island whole, with the original bung, char, and cooperage markings. Age your own spirits, build furniture, make a garden feature, or just stand one up on the deck. No two are alike.
