Oak Infusion Spirals - Amburana 8" (2/PK)

The big surface area of the spiral design allows a shorter pickup time of wood character. Allowing adequate wood impact in a matter of 7 to 14 days of contact time. Toasting is a process measured in time & temperature, not colour. Differences in darkness or lightness of identically toasted woods is due to natural differences in the wood before toasting, such as grain tightness & moisture, each of which falls into a range of values that meets our standard.

Amburana (Amburana cearensis) is also known as Brazilian oak, named after the country from which the majority of Amburana trees are grown. It is a wood commonly associated with the aging of a Brazilian spirit, Cachaça, a sugarcane spirit similar to rum. Amburana tends to reduce acidity in a beverage, highlighting more beverage flavour while contributing its own sweet and savoury flavours of gingerbread and vanilla. Herbal notes of thyme can also be detected.
