American White Oak for Whiskey/Bourbon Infusion Aging - 1 lb. mixed char levels

Description

No Barrel?
No Problem!
Hidden Hollow Farms near Lynchburg, Tennessee & the Craft Brew Folks have ya’ll covered when it comes to flavoring your own Bourbon/ Whiskey.
If you want the fine taste of bourbon/ whisky that can only be mastered over the span of a decade, but all you have is a distilled bottle of white liquor? Fret not. Now you can add the smoky hints of aged oak barrel — steeped with a cellar’s years of history and flavor — right into your spirit with these charred oak sticks. Think of this as a time machine for your distilled spirit!
The caramelizing of the sugars in the wood itself. That’s part of the reason that bourbons can taste so strongly vanilla forward.
Beyond that, the toasting, of the wood also imparts dramatic flavor differences. The darker or lighter the toast, the more reactions happen, imbuing different flavors.
Our wood is all American White Oak. It is harvested from our own 10-acre property near Lynchburg. Not only that, but ours is ONLY the heartwood, or center of the tree. It is hand-hewn with an axe and chisel- no power tools to avoid any chance of oil/ gas contamination on the wood..
The oak is not broiled in a kitchen oven, but charred/toasted via fire, bring out the parallelization you get from real charred barrels like out friend Jack down the road. You will receive a mix of our char levels- from light toasted to dark charred.
Heavy char produces a pronounced caramelized favor and color quickly.
Medium produces aromas of roasted nuts/ hint of coffee with a fuller aroma. Gives vanilla notes in bourbons.
Light roast gives off dedicate aromas of fruit & coconut-vanillas.
You will receive over one pound of a mix of toasted/charred sticks, light to dark in color.
If you need more charred or less charred, just let me know and I will see to it you get what you need
(we exist to please you by making your BEST product ever).
MEASUREMENTS: these sticks will be roughly sized-
not all will be uniform since this is all hand cut and toasted/charred-
about
8" inches long, by
about
3/4" to 1"  wide, so that they will fit into regular narrow-neck  liquor bottles for aging. This will also give you more total charred surface-area per order.
In addition to bourbon/whiskey, these are  perfect for use in wine or beer recipes to impart that barrel aged flavor.  Please read our feedback- customers are LOVING the flavor our oak sticks impart!
Thanks for stopping by and looking!
