Specifications:

Material: American white oak

Toasting level: Heavy toast

Dosage: 2-6 g / 1 L of spirit

Usage Instructions:

Add oak chips directly to your chosen spirit at a dosage of 2-6 g per 1 liter of alcohol for 3 to 6 weeks. We recommend adjusting the contact time based on personal tasting preferences. Once the desired flavor intensity is reached, remove the chips and enjoy your refined spirit.

Alternatively, you can macerate the oak chips in 70% ABV alcohol for a few days, then use the resulting extract to dose your spirit as preferred.

Tip: For greater depth and complexity, use a lower dosage over a longer infusion time. This allows the alcohol to penetrate deeper into the wood structure, extracting richer flavors than those achieved through shorter contact.

Net weight: 50 g
