There seems to be a TREND of barrel-aged spirits hitting the shelves.
Not only is the use of oak NATURAL, INNOVATIVE, and INTRIGUING but as well as EMPHASISING existing flavours in the spirit, it can also TRANSFORM a spirit, giving it more depth and character.
But with a shortage (and the expense) of oak barrels, spirit producers are seeking alternate methods to traditional oak aging.
Did you know that SWAT stocks a variety of OAK ALTERNATIVES?
