Barrel Reservation

The ownership process starts by requesting a barrel reservation from within the Barrel Global application. With highly limited supplies and large demand, these reservations are often allocated quickly for popular distilleries.

Secure Storage

All purchased barrels are stored in a secure warehouse at the distillery or an approved third party facility. In order to comply with legal requirements, full barrels cannot be transported outside of an approved warehouse until they are bottled.
