ABC Crafted Series Oak Chips - American Heavy Smoked Toasted (3.5 oz)

  • $6.89


ABC Crafted Series American Heavy Smoked Toasted Oak Chips contains 3.5 oz (100g) of ideally sized chips, perfect for small-batch winemaking. Contains higher concentrations of volatile compounds and derivatives of thermal degradation of lignin, but lower concentrations of ellagitannins. The high glycosidic polymer content produces heavy smoked toasted, caramel, and roasted notes and significantly increases the wine’s aromatic complexity. Ideal for use in winemaking thanks to their fine grain, high porosity, and permeability.

The oak's rapid component transfer makes them well suited for short treatments. Has a significant short-term organoleptic impact due to its high volatile compound content. Minimizes modification of the wine’s tannin profile due to its low ellagitannin content. Has less impact on structured mouthfeel than European oaks.

We recommend using a muslin bag to contain the oak chips while soaking for easy removal and ease of transferring.
