Our designers will work closely with you to help customize the design and layout of the barrel end. The barrels will then be displayed on our custom barrel wall for all to enjoy.
Savor the journey as you taste your evolving whiskey along with friends throughout its aging process (at least 2 years), culminating in the perfect moment to bottle.
When ready, custom labels will be designed and bottled with your brand. Each barrel will yield approximately 30 bottles depending on the proof (and how much you’ve been tasting)!
$3,000 (per 2 year membership)
$10.00 per bottle (at pickup plus sales tax)
