I've thought about ageing my cider in an old whisky barrel before, but empty whisky barrels are hard to find down these parts.
Last time I saw any empty ones was up past Callendar when we were staying in the Trossachs on holiday.
Great scenery and great whisky (I tried to help empty a barrel or two whilst there)......... ;-)
