Weathered Whiskey Barrel Wood Ring
Ancient as it may be, there is an undeniable refinement about whiskey and its production. Whiskey barrels come from hand-selected oak trees, usually from the white oak family, and are the primary means by which the flavor of the final spirit is achieved. The charred inside of a whiskey barrel acts to remove Sulphur while the wood sugars are caramelized and leech into the whiskey. Our weathered whiskey barrel wood rings are an ode to those smoky barrels which cure your favorite whiskey to maturity. We have several of the most well-known Tennessee whiskey barrel woods in stock, but if you have a favorite that isn’t listed here and have access to some barrel wood, we can probably make something custom!
Weathering the wood is done via an old process, whereby the wood is dipped in water mixed with ferrous sulfate, the same stuff often used as a mineral supplement. . The mixture reacts to the tannins in the wood, turning them silver, gray, or dark gray, creating a permanent color change in the wood that is unique to each piece.
Putting It Together
Sometimes the simplest design is the best. By pairing the weathered whiskey barrel with the natural whiskey barrel wood inlay you get a contrast that is subtle, yet exactly right.
Is there any difference in the whiskey barrel woods color?
This is a great question that customers often ask. All of the popular distilleries use white oak for their barrels, so regardless of the brand you choose, the wood color is going to be the same. However, every tree has its own unique story and will have variations in color even with the same species. The ring you get will be unique.
Can I have a different whiskey barrel inlay?
Sure thing! The whiskey barrel wood you choose will be the weathered and main body of the ring, but if you want a different whiskey barrel wood for the inlay, just let us know in the notes when you order. No extra charge for the change up.
