I was looking for a decorative but functional water butt for a prominent position in the garden. I found Celtic Timber just by browsing and I am so glad I did!
The whiskey barrel is a great way to give a third life to something that has had previous good uses. My newly created 'Hops & Grapes Cabin' (half the garage) is right beside where the barrel now resides in the low wall at the bottom of the garden. It is so attractive and so in-keeping with the theme - I love it!
The two guys from SGK Distribution who delivered the barrel were amazing. They called 20-30 mins beforehand and were most attentive moving it to just where I wanted it, careful not to damage anything en route.
I fitted the tap with ease then filled the barrel (as recommended), savouring the wonderful aroma. Sitting right next to the cabin the barrel is the perfect feature (with a useful purpose). Many positive comments have been made about the barrel.
The photo makes the barrel look a little lop-sided: I think it is the effect of the whiskey fumes on the photographer Haha!
Thank you Celtic Timber team
