MY BIOGRAPHY
FAITMAIZ offers exclusive pieces specialising in reusing old whisky, wine and rum barrels. The large BAR-REL™ drinks cabinet is my trademark piece, crafted from an authentic solid oak whisky or wine cask, lovingly refurbished and individually customised. These Bar-rels are unique, authentic and personalised, allowing you to own your own little piece of whisky or wine history.
Born in France, my grandfather Michel was a joiner and I spent my childhood in his old workshop. So, when I came across an abandoned whisky cask in Scotland it became my project - a hammer, a saw, some screws and something magical happened! That was my first Bar-rel and the start of my journey.
It is so satisfying to see my customers sharing this journey with me and creating their own story with one of my creations.

STEP 01
Chose the size:
Small - Medium - Large
Approximative sizes:
S= belly diam. 45 cm / Height 65cm / 16kg
M= belly diam. 55 cm / Height 80cm / 26kg
L= belly diam. 65 cm / Height 90cm / 60kg

M
L
STEP 02
Chose the wood colour:
Light Oak - Dark Oak - Authentic Oak
To know:
Authentic oak means that I will keep the colour as genuine as possible, very dark for the whisky barrels but lighter maintaining the red wine stains on the outside of the barrel for the wine barrels.

STEP 03
Chose the hoops colour:
Silver - Black Matte - Authentic
To know:
The hoops on the S, M and Wine barrels will be much lighter than on a 30+ year old whisky cask. Authentic hoops allow you to keep your cask original, for the Large bar-rel it will have a dark brushed metal look.
