FRENCH OAK - CUBES
Provides complex, pleasant and well defined toasted oak characters and aromas of maple syrup, dark chocolate, coffee, nutmeg, clove, with a touch of smoked meat character. The flavours offer sweetness with a nice pronounced spice, creaminess and roundness to the mouthfeel with a lingering pronounced toast character.
Millside Maturation Woods are imported directly from Innerstave in the United States of America.
Innerstave oak barrel alternatives and oak adjuncts have been used for more than forty years by winemakers to expand their oak spice rack flavour profiles. More recently, brewers and distillers have been turning to Innerstave to help them break new ground.
Innerstave’s proximity to San Francisco Bay’s microflora makes their premium new French oak barrel flavour profiles distinctive and unique, so does their sourcing of oak trees. Innerstave has been working with the same trusted providers in central France for more than forty years. Their oak products are convection oven toasted rather than hand-fired, enabling them to provide consistent results for winemakers, brewers and distillers, year after year.
Premium Oak Cubes are intended to introduce premium barrel flavours. The cubes can be placed in the maturation vessel and allowed to float freely or be tied down. Oak cubes can also be inserted into used barrels to replenish oak flavours by using an oak infusion tube. Innerstave oak cubes are best used during post fermentation.
