• Chain-of-Oak is a through the bung hole delivery system designed by Innerstave to benefit those winemakers who do not require 100% new barrel impact oak flavour.
• This system is winemaker installed and versatile as winemakers can vary the number of oak links in the chain to obtain the desired oak impact.
• Each chain imparts one-third the amount of oak flavour of a new 225L Barrel Innerstave.
• Chain of Oak is used most exclusively in barrel aging programs.

Addition rate and usage instructions:

• 1 chain per barrel/wood surface is 30% of a 225l barrel
