Furniture / Decoration Grade Whiskey Barrel - Grade A
Grade A Furniture/Decor Whiskey Barrels are retired barrels that have aged whiskey and often beer and are no longer refillable. Though great for decor or furniture projects, some may have warped heads, head bungs and other imperfections. But we like to call that character.
Save on total cost per barrel (after shipping and taxes) when you buy in bulk.

These retired barrels have been used a minimum of 2+ years for aging bourbon or whiskey from world class distilleries such as Heaven Hill, Wild Turkey, Willett, Jack Daniels, Rabbit Hole and Four Roses. Some may have aged stout beers, too. No two barrels are alike and each boasts plenty of character.
While we don’t recommend barrel-aging beer or other beverages with furniture/decor barrels, they make for great DIY projects, decor, furniture, rain barrels and more. The only limit is your imagination.
Important notes: Our Grade A barrels are higher quality than Grade B Furniture/Decor Whiskey Barrels. They have belly bungs only, not top bungs like many of the Grade B barrels. Because these barrels are authentic, you can expect distillery markings, flat heads and residual material on the inside of the barrel. We do not clean these barrels.
Grade A barrels will have no more than 4 cracks.
Every barrel is unique with its own character and qualities. Images shown are not representative of the exact barrel you will receive, as our inventory is constantly rotating. Barrels will have markings, but each distillery differs in how they stamp and mark their barrels.
Save money when you buy in bulk: Total cost per barrel, after shipping and taxes are applied in the cart, is lower when you buy in bulk. This is because we can ship barrels more efficiently on pallets.

Fresh barrels will be shipped via a LTL motor freight provider. To ensure safety and freshness of your barrels, they are wrapped in plastic and strapped down to a pallet with a label identifying the pallet contents.
