Is a 5 gallon barrel good for aging whiskey at home?

It holds enough for a real batch while still aging faster than a full-size cask, because smaller barrels put more spirit in contact with the wood. Taste often so the oak doesn't overshoot.

• Swell the barrel with water before filling, as with any new barrel.
• The char level inside shapes the flavor, so check the listing for details.
• Plan a stand or safe resting spot for a filled 18.9L barrel, since it gets heavy.
• Confirm what is included before you buy.
