Wine barrels are typically made from oak, which can vary in type (such as French or American oak), each imparting different flavors to the wine.
The wine barrels typically have a beautiful deep red or burgundy wine stain on the interior of the staves and heads and a natural light blonde appearance on the outside .
Whiskey barrels are traditionally made from oak, often charred on the inside to enhance the flavor of the whiskey. The exterior is typically more rustic and distressed given their longer aging time.

All barrels and natural woods have their own unique character. Color matching is not an exact science in this process. The age of the wood, how it was stored and what it was previously used for give it its very own distinct personality . Finishes can be chosen, but how each piece of wood takes the color will vary. No two items will be exactly the same, which is what makes these projects so exciting and special.
