Product Description

Our half barrel cabinet starts with an authentic bourbon barrel cut in half lengthwise and stained with either a chestnut stain or dark walnut stain. Several screws are added to the rings to keep it from getting loose as the barrel dries out.  The rings and screws painted black.  Thin piece of plywood stained the same color as the barrel and secured to sit inside the barrel staves.

Dimensions are about 26′ diameter, 12″ deep, and about 35-36″ tall.

Lighting options:

1. Motion sensing battery white light – The light features a rechargeable battery.  The motion sensing feature can be turned on or off.  You can also adjust the brightness of the light.

2. Plug in – features white and a several other colors to choose from.  Turns on/off with a remote.

3.  No lights

Shelving options explained – Barrel lid shelf will be about 20-21″ left to right. Lid will be close to flat, but not perfectly flat due to the nature of barrel lids. They are reinforced with plywood underneath. Solid oak shelves will be made from red oak and stained to match the barrel. Shelf will be cut to about 22″ left to right and be a tighter fit inside the barrel (less gap between the side of the shelf and inside of the barrel). Oak shelves will be perfectly flat.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers we share most often with new customers.

Can you describe the color options?

Since every barrel is a little different, the colors depicted in the pictures will likely vary a little from the barrel you receive. It will be within reason of what is pictured though.

Polyurethane – honey color to light brown
Chestnut – slightly darker than polyurethane. Mostly brown with a hint of red
Walnut – brown to dark brown in color. A deep, rich tone of brown.

All products have a polyurethane finish on them. The chestnut and walnut just have stain applied before the finish.

Can I request a specific distillery stamp?

Yes. Select the distillery during configuration. If you need one not listed, email us first to see if we have it available or can get it for you. [email protected]

Do you offer local pickup discounts?

Absolutely. Choose local pickup during checkout or contact us before ordering and we will provide discounted pricing.

I was scammed elsewhere on the internet and was in a pinch to get a gift for my husband's birthday in time. Mike made it happen and we got the half barrel bar a few days before the birthday. Excellent customer service and product

I'm so happy with the half barrel cabinet that Mike made for me. The colored lights were a great choice for showing off my bourbon collection.

I ordered a bourbon barrel cabinet from Home and Garden Barrels for my husband's Christmas gift. He was so excited when he opened it. The barrel far exceeded all my expectations. Mike was amazing to do business with. He promptly responded to my emails. This item is a must-have for a bourbon or whiskey lover!
