I am trying to research ways to long term age rum/whiskey/bourbon. I did have a 29l oak keg that I was planing to use for storage. I was told that I could only put spirits in their for a short time other wise it would go off! So I gave the barrel away!! So what I want to do is make a batch of whiskey/rum /bourbon In the near future to put away for my sons 21st which is 13 years away( so plenty of time to practice).
Should I buy another barrel or use some chips/staves age for a while then bottle? Is there a max time to leave spirit in a barrel? ( will it get too much wood flavour?)
Any advise would be good.
Cheers Rowey

To seal the kegs I use a tri clamp, cap & seal :handgestures-thumbupleft:
