Behind every well-matured wh**ky is a series of small but important details, and barrel sealing is one of them.

Poplar remains a trusted material in cooperage for wh**ky barrel bungs due to its unique balance of softness and performance. It expands slightly with moisture, helping to form a tight seal while protecting the integrity of the cask.

Designed with a tapered shape for ease of fitting, these bungs ensure a secure finish with minimal effort.
