Chestnut barrel 28 l - 112 l

Product information "Chestnut barrel 28 l - 112 l"

We produce the chestnut barrels by ourselves under our own brand Eder - FassStolz®. Our chestnuts - one of the most valuable chestnut stews in Germany come from the region of Wasgau / Trifels.

Chestnut wood was already used in the 18th century for the storage of wines. It is characterized by a fine natural sweetness, pronounces the fruit body of the wine and controls little tannin to the wine. In the distillate sector chestnut wood is now particularly popular for apple distillates but also cherrybrandy and "harder" brandies such as Korn.

The barrels are toasted inside (over chestnut wood fire) and left outside raw. The bung stave is made of oak to ensure stability.

Please note, the content indicated for wooden casks do not correspond with net capacity. The capacity can be higher or even less. Balances are not reason for reclamations. 


The barrels are fitted with a wooden bung. They are supplied without barrel storage or rack.

The bung stave is made of oak to ensure stability.

Please note that the chestnut wood will release its aromas to the beverage stored in the barrel after a short time. If you do not want any change in the taste, we recommend ornamental barrels or barrels with inner stainless steel bubble.

EDER - FassStolz® 228 l chestnut
It was the Romans who probably brought us the sweet chestnut from the Caucasus. In the meantime, the warmth-loving tree has become native to southern Germany and especially to the Palatinate Forest.Heat-loving in this context does not mean dry-loving!Our wood for our barrel series "Eder FassStolz Kastanie" comes from one of the most beautiful and best areas in Germany for the sweet chestnut, the Wasgau near the Trifels Castle in the heart of the Palatinate Forest!Year after year, with the end of the vegetation phase from October, November onwards, we work together with the foresters to select some of these trees, sometimes several hundred years old, under the aspect of sustainability and climate protection, in order to produce particularly valuable wine and distillate barrels from them.By the way, the chestnut was the tree of the year 2018!The fruit of the trees is also used in culinary delights, whether in soup, bread or in some game dishes! The chestnut gives a full, round aroma without, however, bringing the sometimes too many tannins of the oak noticeably on the tongue. Especially in distillates one tastes the depth, the forest and the fruit of the chestnut paired with honey notes. The chestnut gives a strong golden yellow color to the distillate.For strong structured red wines the chestnut barrel offers a great maturity as well as a round sweetness. We recommend the chestnut barrels especially in the toasting stages Medium to Forte!The barrel is equipped with a silicone bung as standard.

Cherry barrel 20 l - 110 l
Made of wild cherry wood - Peunus Avium. Barrels equipped with galvanized hoops. Toasting light. Cherry is still the distiller’s most favorable taste. And that not only because of the fruit’s fertility but also because it is an inherent part of the culinary culture of Southern Germany and Switzerland. Since 150 years, the particular climatic conditions there and the soil conditions that the cherry trees need to enforce the fruit’s most aromatic evolvement have been and are still appreciated. The sweet cherry has not for nothing been named tree of the year 2010. It is a stone fruit and belongs to the rose family. The “kirsch” is characterized by its complex taste that takes long at its end as well as the decent and subtle flavor. Initiates describe the favor during tastings often as fleshy, fruity, chocolate, sourly aromatic, juicy, lusty or nuttily aromatic. The most crucial point for the distillers is, however, also the question if “stonetone”, i. e. an almond or marchpane flavor is desired. The question if this flavor or homogenous kirsch with a discrete fruit nature should be pursued is highly discussed. Thankfully one should say. Cause: As is generally known, tastes are different. Note:Cherry wood in the area of distillate is not always easy to process, this requires the growth forms of the cherry tree. To support the tightness, we paint the small cherry wooden barrels just like our large barrels with a breathable, water-soluble lacquer, which meets all certification requirements in the food industry and barrel construction!Please note, the content indicated for wooden casks do not correspond with net capacity. The capacity can be higher or even less. Balances are not reason for reclamations.
