Customer Reviews
Great addition to the wine cellar!
Michael,
Love hearing that the Willett barrel found a great home in your wine cellar! Thanks for your order and for taking the time to leave a review.

I purchased a freshly dumped Willet barrel online. I had some questions about pick-up arrangements. Charrisse promptly responded to my email and was extremely helpful. Barrel was in excellent condition and I have since filled it with new spirits. It is aging in my barn and had no leaks. Great company and love reusing an American white oak barrel from KY!
John,
Thanks so much for your order, and for the detailed review and photos! We’re glad the Willett barrel arrived in great shape and that it's already aging new spirits. We’re always happy to support however we can.
Appreciate you giving this Kentucky barrel a second life. Can’t wait to hear how the aging turns out!

This company is very easy to work with and their attention to cleanliness and servige is next to none. We are home wine makers and needed a new barrel to replace our 25 year old barrel. We look forward to aging wine in this recommended barrel. Thank you Midwest!!
