ENQUIRE REGARDING AVAILABILITY AT [email protected] We are very selective with the barrels we use. They are all handmade by Coopers in Eastern Europe who have been producing barrels since 1932. Each barrel is made from oak, has a heavy char and its own unique character. Before the ageing process can begin, the barrel is prepared and seasoned. It then takes many weeks until the barrel is ready for our Negroni mix that contains a London Dry style gin, a blend of several of the oldest and most herbaceous sweet vermouths and of course Campari. Then we wait. Once the barrel is empty, let us know at [email protected] and we can refill it with some pre-aged Negroni that is ready to go. Some barrels will arrive with discolouration which can happen as the oak absorbs some of the Negroni. This is normal and part of the character and charm of a handmade wooden product. Sometimes your barrel may develop a small leak, if it does, no problem, let us know and we will re-wax it and seal it up. For this reason, we recommend storing you barrel on a surface that will not stain if any Negroni manages to escape. Includes drip tray. Note that: The barrel will contain 4.5 litres of Negroni which is equal to 92 standard drinks These are handmade products so the dimensions will differ slightly but they are approximately: Height 28cm, Width 23cm, Depth 29cm At this stage, barrels can only be delivered within Central Auckland The ageing timeframe can vary depending on the barrel. For this reason, while we endeavour to always have barrels ready to go, there may be a delay between ordering and delivery 26% Alc/Vol at the time of barreling Contains Sulphites
