Where Can Find Frascati Wine

Mountains Chamber of barrels

whiskey beginners ask me for my tastings and seminars again and again where the Scotch Single Malt actually gets its color and special flavor.

from used oak barrels which previously was stored in an American Bourbon Whisky, sherry, rum or wine - of course. But as the drums come to the distillery and who ensures that they survive the many years in the warehouses?

... and I'm on my last Highland Tour finally visited the Speyside Cooperage in Craigellachie, to make me a picture - a definitely a worthwhile place to visit not far from the Whisky Trail.

The Cooperage barrels are obsolete or reassembled - and in the chord. But do not worry examined, the barrels are also drawing on its density and get the release only after passing the test. Nevertheless, I leave it to take me gazing after time to time that our drums are not leaking yet :-).

Scotland On my visits, I've already seen in the drum storage distilleries, where high speed to the 20 - 30 000 barrels come together. But the barrel stockpile in Craigellachie has my breath away - (! Not and the Speyside Cooperage is the largest in Scotland), mountains of empty barrels.

There must be millions who would not want a large truck drive up there and pick some nice drums? But do not worry, the barrels are well fenced and guarded; only discarded barrels can be purchased as flower tubs or bar-furniture ...

Well wood
