Here are some fun facts you may not have known about barrel aging

The process of oak barrel aging began with Celts. In the beginning, barrels were used because they were better suited for transportation on ships than clay pots. Due to the durability and their round shape allows workers to roll the container easily. It started to occur to people that the wood barrel changed the flavor, aroma, and finishes of the spirits for the better.

A master barrel maker is called a cooper. If you know anyone with that last name, chances are they have a relative who was a brewer, distiller, or winemaker.

Oak barrels are charred on the inside

The char helps maximize the effect that the wood has on the contents of the barrel.

Artificial vanilla is what makes your wine or whiskey taste so good

Phenolic aldehyde, aka vanillin, is an organic compound that naturally occurs in a wide variety of substances. Due to the vanilla taste and smell like vanilla this is how the vanilla extract was created.
