🔬 Carbonização & Extração: o que o nível da chama revela sobre o destilado?
Uma análise detalhada conduzida por Andrew Wiehebrink, Divisão de P&D de Destilados da
iscbarrels (Pesquisa e Desenvolvimento) mostrou que o nível de carbonização das barricas de carvalho americano influencia diretamente a taxa de extração nos dois primeiros anos de envelhecimento.
🔥 A carbonização #1 resultou em maior concentração de extrativos (30,31 mg/L) e cor mais intensa, enquanto a #4 mostrou uma extração mais suave (22,55 mg/L). Apesar da diferença na quantidade de compostos, o perfil sensorial final permaneceu surpreendentemente equilibrado.
📊 Resultado: mais fogo, mais extração — mas nem sempre mais sabor. Um insight valioso para quem busca entender a fundo o impacto da madeira no destilado.
📍Estudo realizado com bourbon em envelhecimento por 24 meses em Kentucky.

We recently partnered with Suntory Global Spirits, The Nature Institute, and Green Forests Work to support reforestation efforts in Hazard, Kentucky. Together, we planted over 7,000 native trees—including American White Oak—helping to restore native forests, improve biodiversity, and strengthen local ecosystems. 🌱
The ground beneath our feet is the former surface mine land, while the landscape behind us offers a glimpse of what the forest will become over the next 80+ years. 🌳🌳🌳
Thank you to all who participated and helped make this initiative a success. Together, we’re making a lasting impact protecting the forests that sustain the spirits industry—and our world. 🌎💚 #SustainableForestry #CraftedWithCare #AgedInISC #BarrelsForTheWorldsFinestSpirits
We’re incredibly excited to share that our very own Denham has been named the winner of the 2025 iscbarrels Young Distiller Fellowship Award! 🏆 He recently went to the australiandistillersassoc conference for the announcement.
We’re so proud of him, from starting with us as a young Whipper (swipe right to see the throwback!) to now thriving as a Senior Distiller, Denham has truly blossomed under Jimmy’s mentorship and is absolutely smashing it!
This recognition is well-deserved and a huge moment for Denham and the whole Whipper Snapper crew.
He now gets to head to the US to see how our barrels are made all while drinking loads of Kentucky whiskey, lucky man!!
Congrats, mate! 🥃🔥
