- THE ORIGINAL “MAKE YOUR OWN WHISKEY” BOOTLEG KIT – Includes everything (but the alcohol) you need to make your finest batch of Bourbon aged to perfection in a wood charred oak barrel. HOW DOES IT WORK? Cure your oak barrel, pour grain alcohol, neutral vodka (non flavored) or moonshine into the barrel along your Swish Barrel Essence. Give a good shake and in just two weeks, your one-of-a-kind blend will be aged to perfection and ready to serve straight from the tap or decant into a liquor bottle.
- AGE TO TASTE! – If properly maintained, American White Oak barrels can be used for many years. Simply follow the cleaning and care instructions included with the kit. After your spirits have aged, pour them into a glass bottle to stop the aging process. Your spirits can last for years in glass but we suggest enjoying them sooner than that. As these barrels are handmade and the thickness of each stave varies, the actual liquid content of the spirits may vary as well.
- AVAILABLE IN MULTIPLE SIZES – 1 Liter 6.5″ x 4.5″ x 4.5″ inches, 2 Liter 7.5″ x 5″ x 5″ inches, 3 Liter 8.5″ x 5.5″ x 5.5″ inches and 5 Liter 9.5″ x 6.5″ x 6.5″ inches. As these barrels are handmade and the thickness of each stave varies, the actual liquid content of the spirits may vary as well.
- BARREL AGED COCKTAILS – Perfect for aging Manhattans, Negroni, Old Fashions, Sazerac, Boulevardier, Mint Julep, Wine, Kombucha or Wine Vinegar. Don’t forget the barrel aged Martini which have been showing up in bars and restaurants nationwide. This DIY craft takes flavor elements from the charred staves and infuses them into the spirits to procure the superb taste connoisseurs enjoy. After your spirit experimenting is done, dispense wine on the kitchen table or use for decoration.
- KIT INCLUDES – American White Oak Barrel with wooden stand, wood bung, spigot, essence flavorings (1 bottle per liter), Funnel, Barrel Cleaning Kit and Complete Instruction Booklet. THIS IS A PARTY IN A BOX WAITING TO HAPPEN! Become a legal Bootlegger, Moonshiner, Rumrunner, Swashbuckler, Outlaw, Whisky Peddler, or just have fun and enjoy aging your spirits.
