Weird - I played spongee with a couple guys here that have done the same. They buy the oak barrels from the Crown Royal distillery in Gimli for next to nothing. There is usually a litre or two of pure unadulterated whiskey left in each, which they collect.

They make swish with the empty barrels, and last I heard they were going to cut each barrel in half and sell them as planters...
