The choice depends on your desired flavor profile and base spirit. Fino and Manzanilla casks work well with lighter spirits and beers, adding mineral and saline notes. Amontillado casks provide balanced complexity, while Oloroso casks offer rich, robust flavors perfect for whisky and dark beers. Pedro Ximénez casks create sweet, dessert-like profiles. Our consultation service includes personalized recommendations based on your specific goals and production style.

Sherry Barrel ButlerAll orders begin with a quote request submitted through the Solera Cask website or by email. This request allows us to understand your needs and provide availability and pricing.
Because historic Solera Casks are available in limited quantities each year, new clients typically begin with a test order of 5–10 barrels. This initial order allows you to evaluate the quality, character, and suitability of the casks in your own aging program before committing to larger volumes.
Once a test order has been completed successfully, we offer renewable supply contracts to ensure long-term access to casks. Clients may choose between 3-year or 5-year agreements, both of which can be renewed upon mutual agreement. These contracts help secure annual stock allocation and provide consistent supply from year to year.
We offer our barrels under Ex-Works incoterms, however if you prefer that we manage shipment to your facility via our logistics partner, we can ship globally via land and sea from Jerez de la Frontera, Spain. For optimal cost efficiency we suggest full container loads (20-foot containers holding 50 x 225L barrels).
