Liquor Essence Information

Want to create your own whiskey, scotch, rum, brandy, etc... and age it to your own taste?  We have Premium Liquor Essences so you can create your favorite spirit.  For every bottle of essence you will need 750 ml vodka or grain alcohol.  14 Essences to choose from.  Ingredients: Natural extracts, essences, oils and caramel color.  Each essence is .65 fl oz. (20ml).

Instructions to make your favorite spirit:  1 essence bottle per 750ml of vodka or grain alcohol.  Mix the vodka or grain alcohol with the essence.  Mix well.  Age spirits to your taste in a cured small or mini oak barrel! CLICK HERE to purchase a mini oak barrel.

Suggested essence per barrel size:  Remember, 1 liter = 1000 ml.  Therefore, if you were to take 1 essence bottle and mix it with 750ml of vodka or grain alcohol, and put it into your 1L barrel, it will be slightly over 3/4 full.  For another example, if you have a 3L barrel to fill, 4 essences & 4 - 750ml bottles of vodka or grain alcohol would fit almost perfectly.  It is suggested to fill it all the way, but that is up to you.  If you choose to not fill the barrel all the way, just turn/rotate barrel a few times (in addition to a quarter turn each week, if it was full) during the aging process, so the contents moves around and ages properly to your taste.  If you do fill it all the way, you may find you have a little more essence and/or vodka or grain alcohol then what the size of your barrel calls for.  If that is the case, properly store the extra essence and/or vodka or grain alcohol in a jar or bottle for your next batch.
