Rain barrel 125 l - Great Britain

Product information "Rain barrel 125 l - Great Britain "

From the land of garden culture and rain, we offer you an original Scottish whisky cask with 125 l capacity - called a Quarter Cask - a "must" for every garden and whisky lover.

Original, fully functional 125 l Cask made of Islay Single Malt Covering (Laphroaig), converted into a rain barrel. Very decorative in your garden on the terrace and due to the saturation with whisky very long lasting.

The cask comes with an opened lid with a wooden handle, made from an original whisky stave.

Rain barrels used to collect rainwater are great all-rounders. The rain barrels, which were once used to age beer, wine or distillates, are not only an eye-catching item in a park or in your garden. Wooden barrels are, without question, the most sustainable way of collecting water, as wood is after all a renewable resource. Quite apart from the lovely look of the barrels and their decorative character, a ton of water will be saved. This is not only environmentally friendly, but also allows you to mete out every drop of water to your plants or animals living in your garden.
Available in a variety of sizes and finishes, rain barrels are a wonderful addition to everything from English gardens to weekend properties to sun terraces.

It's lovely to see the burnt oak charing on the inside of the barrel that creates the unmistakable taste of whisky.

On request we can install a water tap, which can be ordered under accessories.


The authenticity of this product is of the utmost importance to us. This means that a rain barrel of this type has previously lain and been moved for years in the "warehouses" of various distilleries. Notches in the wood or possibly an uneven bottom are not quality defects, but rather determined by the peculiarity of the construction and the previous use of the barrels.

All pictures are examples, color variations are possible.

Catch precious rain water with the Rheinzink rain collector The rain collector can be easily inserted into 100mm standard zinc downpipes. The rain collector connection should be approximately at the same height as the connection in the rain barrel. Saw out a section approx. 30cm from the existing downpipe and connect the rain collector.  On completion, the rain collector can be used immediately, provided that it has been installed correctly. The rain barrel rim should be 70mm or more above the connection point of the rain collector. If the water level is high enough, the water will flow out through the separator. The collector is so designed on the inside that the rainwater collects and is diverted into your rain barrel via the Gardena plug-in connector (suitable for all ½ inch garden hoses up to 5m long). Due to the length of the hose, the rain barrel no longer has to stand right next to the downpipe. The supplied hose is not intended to be connected to the front of the Gardena coupling. Rather, it is an extension option that can be connected directly to the rainwater thief if necessary. A suitable garden hose is connected to the Gardena coupling with regulation stop in order to stop the water supply if necessary, e.g. if the rain barrel would otherwise overflow.

Drain for rain barrels "tapping station"
If you like a natural look in your garden, you've come to the right place. This drain made of a wooden truss for a rain barrel is a practical idea from Eder carpentry. The drain fits perfectly with our rain barrels. In your garden, it blends in with the environment as if it had always been there. The oak beam is untreated and comes from an old half-timbered house. The roof is made of tree bark. Our carpenters drilled a hole through the beam for the tube and tap, and installed the tap and connections. These will automatically be installed when ordered in combination with a rain barrel. Please note that the tap in the picture was installed at about 35 cm from the bottom of the wooden truss, to match the 225 l rain barrel on a storage cross. Thus, a watering can fits perfectly under it. We will gladly adjust the height of the tap to your circumstances at home. Leave a message for this in our comment field at the end of the order. Each drain for rain barrels "tap" is unique and may have different notches in the wood and discoloration. All pictures are example pictures, color differences possible.
