Custom Engraved Whiskey Barrel Head – Personalized Sign with Optional Easel

Custom barrel head signs made from real Buffalo Trace bourbon barrels

Turn an authentic whiskey barrel head into a custom sign for a home bar, man cave, restaurant, distillery, wine cellar, log cabin, entrance, or rustic decor project. Each sign is cut from a real bourbon barrel head from Buffalo Trace Distillery barrels, then laser-burned with your design for a branded, authentic look.

You can start with one of our templates, send your own logo or finished artwork, or tell us the direction you have in mind and we can help create the design. We work directly with you and send a proof for approval before we engrave the barrel head.

Frequently asked questions

Will I see a proof before you engrave it?

Yes. We send every customer a proof for approval before running the laser. Production timing depends partly on how quickly the proof is approved.

Most custom barrel head signs ship in about 2-5 business days. The timing depends mainly on how quickly the design proof is approved.

Can I use my own logo or design?

What can be engraved on the barrel head?

Family names, business logos, dates, locations, monograms, sayings, bar names, man cave names, new home designs, Father's Day themes, and custom artwork all work well. "Aged to Perfection" designs are especially popular for 40th and 50th birthday gifts for bourbon and whiskey fans.
