New Blog Post: European Oak – Exceptional Flavor, Exceptional Value 🌳
ISC sources oak logs from all over the world to make our world class spirit barrels. The most popular selections come from a multitude of states here in the U.S. and from several different forests dotted throughout France. Both areas produce wonderful oak logs that make terrific barrels for aging spirits. Today we are venturing off the beaten path just a bit and exploring something different: European oak.
