All of Bob's Barrels are made from American white oak. They go on a recycling journey starting life in America as Bourbon barrels for one year. They then cross the Atlantic to Scotland and Ireland to be used to store Scottish whisky and Irish whiskey for a number of years. This process can be repeated, depending on the condition, many times before they come on a journey to us. We then grade the barrels, clean the years of grime off and repurpose as planters, tables, dog beds and anything else you can challenge us to build. We offer a variety of environmentally friendly finishes to these barrels to suite your taste
