200 liter 1st fill Bourbon cask

We continuously fill 200 liter 1st fill Bourbon casks with our New Make and put a few aside so that those interested have the opportunity to buy a fresh cask of maturing whisky.

Our Bourbon casks come from various distilleries in the USA, so feel free to ask about our current selection. Common to all Bourbon casks is that they are made from white American oak, which guarantees extra sweetness, caramel and vanilla in the final whisky. There will be slight variations, depending on where the cask comes from, as well as which Bourbon the cask has contained, but the biggest contributor is always the individual cask, which comes with its very own, individual expression.

Welcome to Father's Day

When you buy a cask share at Thornæs, you are automatically invited to Fadenes dag here at the distillery. Cask Day is a special day when we celebrate all the good whiskey that lies and matures in our casks. On the day there will be tastings and lots of extra info about the casks that are on the way and the whiskey that is ready to be enjoyed together.

The date of the next Fadenes day will be announced on the website and in our newsletter.
