Barrel Project Contest!

Barrel table at Santa Fe Spirits

Do you have an idea for something you want to create out of an old Colkegan barrel? Now could be your chance! We have twelve 2L barrels at the distillery that are in no condition to go into our barrel aging kits, so we’re going to see what else they can become.

The first twelve people to sign up will get a 2L barrel to use to make a mini of what they would like to do with a 53 gallon barrel. That’s right, the winner of this contest gets a 53 gallon barrel to recreate their idea full-sized.

Your project can be anything you like: furniture, home accents, dishes, art – as long as we can tell it was made from a barrel, it qualifies!

You’ve got until January 31st to pick up your barrel (but we only have twelve, so don’t procrastinate), and a month to make your creation. The finished projects will be on display in our distillery tasting room and on our social media in March and the winner will be announced at a big shindig at the distillery on Friday, April 3rd!

Winner will be determined by votes.

First place: 53 gallon used Colkegan barrel

Second place: $75 Santa Fe Spirits gift certificate

Third place: $50 Santa Fe Spirits gift certificate
