Oak Barrel Sealing Wax
The best barrels out there are not varnished, sealed or lined which means that all barrels will leak if proper care is not taken. Our specially formulated Oak Barrel Wax fits this job if there are some leaks that cannot be plugged by swelling of the oak.
Rough Dimensions:
40mm x 40mm x 22mm
This should be more than enough for one to three barrels depending on leakage.
Our barrels are 100% American white oak with a medium toast inside and a raw un-varinshed outside (NOT PLASTIC / ALUMINIUM FOIL LINED). This means more care needs to be taken to keep these barrels in tip top shape. But ultimately you will have the best possible product as a result, and much more flexibility in maintaining a leak free barrel.
All Barrels will leak if proper care is not taken, for more on leaking and remedies to fix this please view the instructions tab to the right.
NOTE: The oak barrels we stock will arrive dry and just like any quality made real oak barrel they need to be prepared before use. Please read this guide for more information:
