PURE DISTILLING WHISKEY CHIPS 100g

Oak chips have large surface area compared to staves or barrels. This means a faster extraction of colour and flavour when compared to staves or barrels. As with most oak products these chips will produce a small amount of sediment and/or tiny chip fragments. To stop these ending up in your final product we recommend filtering through unbleached coffee filters prior to drinking. 

These Pure Distilling Whisky Chips are made from whisky barrels for a smooth, full-bodied finish. Add these chips to your spirits to get flavours of grain and malt with a pronounced whisky tone. Best when used with whisky essence, these chips can enhance colour and flavour to get the perfect balance.

These oak chips can be used multiple times. If using the same oak multiple times ensure to allow adequate time on subsequent soakings for adequate flavour development. Use new chips for each soaking for optimal results.

MATURATION PROTOCOLS:

Spirits - Quick Ageing - Full Flavour, Less Smoothness: Soak 20g of chips per litre of 40-  50% ABV for 10-14 days or until adequate colour and flavour is achieved. Avoid Soaking with this higher dosage for too long as it can lead to an 'over-oaked' flavour.
Spirits - Slow Ageing - Full Flavour, More Smoothness : Soak 7g of chips per litre of 40 - 50% ABV for 3-4 weeks or until adequate colour and flavour is achieved. Longer soaking times can be utilised with this dosage without adding too much oak flavour while still adding more smoothness.
