Much of what you taste in Woodinville Whiskey can be attributed to the barrels themselves! Early on, Orlin and Brett worked with the team at Independent Stave @iscbarrels, looking at standard kiln-dried barrels and seasoned wood barrels, seasoned for 18 months and 24 months. After testing different char and toast levels, they identified what we've used since day one. Prior to being coopered, our barrel wood is seasoned in open air, rain, wind, sun, and snow for 18 months, softening the wood’s harsh tannins. The barrels are then slowly toasted and heavily charred to further enrich the wood’s desirable flavors. #WhoMakesYourWoodinville #woodinvillewhiskey #graintoglass #iscbarrels
