Welcome to Anping County Boli Hardware Wiremesh Products Factory, a trusted manufacturer since 1998 with annual export value exceeding US$5 million. Our 200L American Oak Cask with 20mm stave thickness and medium char is meticulously crafted for premium wine and spirit aging. Each barrel undergoes strict quality control to deliver consistent flavor extraction and durability. With stainless steel hoops that resist corrosion, this cask is ideal for both commercial distilleries and home enthusiasts seeking authentic oak maturation.
Our American white oak is sourced from sustainable forests, and the 20mm thick staves ensure excellent insulation and slow oxygen exchange, promoting complex flavor development. The medium char (#3) creates a balanced toast layer that enhances vanilla, caramel, and spice notes without overpowering the spirit. The stainless steel hoops eliminate rust risks and maintain structural integrity over decades of use.

Detailed Product Advantages:
- Optimal Aging Surface: The 20mm staves provide a thicker wood-to-liquid ratio, allowing slower extraction of tannins and more nuanced flavor integration compared to standard 18mm barrels.
- Medium Char Profile: Our proprietary charring process reaches a depth of 2–3 mm, creating a rich carbon layer that filters impurities and imparts toasted oak, vanilla, and baking spice aromas.
- Rust-Free Hoops: Stainless steel hoops are non-reactive and withstand acidic environments, ensuring no metallic taste transfer and long-lasting barrel shape retention.
- Leak-Free Construction: Each stave is precision-cut and steamed for tight joints, then pressure-tested with water before shipment.
- Versatile Use: Suitable for aging red wine, whiskey, rum, brandy, or even beer and vinegar. The medium char works well for both first-fill and re-use scenarios.
- Eco-Friendly: American white oak from FSC-certified sources (upon request), and the barrel can be recycled or repurposed after its service life.
Customer Benefits: By choosing our 200L American Oak Cask, you gain a reliable partner for consistent quality. Thicker staves mean less angel's share loss (evaporation) over time, saving you liquid volume. The medium char provides a balanced extraction that won't overwhelm delicate spirits. Our stainless steel hoops eliminate the need for frequent re-hooping, reducing maintenance costs. Whether you are a craft distiller or a winemaker, this barrel delivers dependable performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
-
Q: What is the difference between medium char and heavy char?
A: Medium char (#3) has a burn time of about 55 seconds, creating a 2–3 mm carbon layer. It provides balanced vanilla and caramel notes with moderate tannin extraction. Heavy char (#4) creates a deeper carbon layer, adding more smoky and roasted flavors, ideal for bold whiskeys. -
