High-Quality Hungarian Oak: The Secret Ingredient

Our 2L Hungarian Oak Barrel is made from the rare and high-quality Slavonian oak, sourced from the Zemplén Mountains and the Tokaj oak woods. The Quercus Petrea, a specific type of oak used in our barrels, boasts a dense, hard structure and an extra flavor profile that is unparalleled. The meticulous care taken by forestry workers in Hungary, with selective logging during the months of November to April, ensures the preservation of these precious forests. Each barrel undergoes a 24-28 month air drying and aging process, guaranteeing the highest quality and optimal performance.
