The legendary Japanese oak is renowned worldwide for its exceptional wood structure, remarkable hardness, and extremely limited availability. Due to this rarity, Mizunara barrels are only available in very small quantities and are considered a true highlight for producers with the highest standards.

During maturation, Mizunara distillate barrels develop a distinctive and unmistakable aromatic profile. High natural vanillin levels combine with delicate floral nuances, exotic spices, notes of sandalwood and incense, and an exceptionally elegant, finely integrated tannin structure. Thanks to the compact barrel size of 55 liters, wood contact is particularly intense, enabling rapid yet complex and multi-layered flavor development - ideal for experimental small batches, special bottlings, or exclusive limited editions.

Our new 55-liter distillate barrels made from Japanese Mizunara oak are crafted according to the highest quality standards. Each barrel is produced by experienced international master coopers using meticulous handcraftsmanship, carefully accounting for the unique properties of this demanding wood. The barrel construction is specifically designed for controlled maturation and maximum aroma extraction. Before shipping, each barrel undergoes a comprehensive quality inspection, during which tightness, wood quality, and workmanship are rigorously checked.

With a new 55-liter distillate barrel made from Japanese Mizunara oak from OAKBARRELS.SHOP, you secure an extremely rare premium barrel that gives your spirits exceptional depth, elegance, and individuality. Due to the very limited availability, this barrel is aimed at producers who deliberately focus on exclusivity and wish to clearly position themselves in the high-end segment of barrel maturation.
