The Barrel Mill

09/08/2026

September is in full swing, and so is the opportunity to start your next barrel program.

As our production schedule opens up, we'll have additional capacity for new American Oak barrel projects.

If a new release, seasonal product, or long-term program is on your calendar, we'd love to help make it happen.

Let's start the conversation.

A big milestone deserves a little celebration.

You can now find Char #3 Barrel-Aged-In-A-Bottle spirals in 48 Total Wine stores across 16 states.

Whether you're discovering us for the first time or have been with us for years, we're excited to make our products more accessible than ever.

Here's to reaching more makers, more enthusiasts, and more great pours.

You can't talk about bourbon without talking about the barrel. 🥃

This National Bourbon Heritage Month, we're raising a glass to American oak and the role it plays in every pour.

Cheers!

What does it take to become a cooper?

A little fire 🔥
A lot of oak 🪵
And a craft that takes years to master 🪓

Our coopers take their job seriously. Building a quality barrel means something. And with 10+ years of experience across the board, it's safe to say they know what it takes to build a great one.

American Oak has earned its reputation for a reason.

For generations, distillers have trusted it to deliver the rich vanilla, caramel, toasted oak, and spice notes that define many of the world's most recognizable spirits. It's consistent, versatile, and built to perform.

While new wood species continue to push the boundaries of flavor, American Oak remains the industry standard because it delivers results time and time again.

Sometimes, the classics become classics for a reason.

Great barrels aren't built overnight.

Neither is great craftsmanship.

Every cooper on our production floor has spent more than a decade perfecting their trade. That experience shows up in every stave, every hoop, and every barrel that leaves our shop.

When quality matters, experience matters.

We're not here to simply sell you a barrel (although we do a lot of that 😉).

We're here to help you find the right solution for what you're trying to create.

Let's dream it up together 👊🏼

While everyone else is soaking up the last weeks of summer, many distillers are already planning what's next.

Fall production starts long before the leaves change.

If you're thinking about seasonal releases, new products, or your next finishing program, now's the time to start the conversation.

A little planning today makes for a smoother season tomorrow.
