INFUSION SPIRALS French Oak Heavy Toast Stix for flavoring Wine Brandy or Alcohol Spirits

$14.95

French Oak Infusion Spirals fit right inside your glass carboy mouth and add rich, subtle oaky notes to your next batch of wine, brandy, or spirits.  One spiral does 3 gallons and you are getting a pair. You can snap off some of the spiral for less oak. 

These spirals are high temperature roasted to a dark toast giving aromatic sweetness, pronounced caramelized wood, and full mouthfeel. Oak your wine the same as a French oak wine barrel without the expense, evaporation, and consternation!  French oak (Quercus sessilis) sourced from the Allier forests in France has a fruity cinnamon allspice character.  Gives notes of sweet oak, vanilla custard, dark chocolate, toasted bread, caramel, and coffee around a campfire.  Increases fruit perception and adds structure.  Used primarily during the aging process.  Think about combining different toast levels in the same tank. This will add complexity, length and mid-palate sweetness.  Two per pack.  Made in USA from oak imported from France.
