Description

American Oak (Quercus alba) Sticks. Used to age spirits or beers mimicking barrel aging for small batches and for a shorter time for large batches. Ave size of block is 100mm X 3mm X 15mm and ave weight is 6 to 8 grams before toasting.

Small batch long aging 4 to 6 grams per liter or too taste for 3 to 4 months

Small batch short aging 20 to 30 grams per liter for 7 to 14 days, check daily for flavour profile development and stop aging when flavour profile is met. This a a personal taste/ palate decision, some prefer more or less oak or toasted smoke flavour.

Which toast?

Our suggestion is not to toast this product as much of the flavours left by the bourbon will be destroyed! But if you insist …

Light toast: Oaky with sweet aromas

Medium toast: Vanillas with toasty oak flavours

Dark toast: For dominate vanillas and spicy aromas
