Description

 The invention relates to the wine industry and can be used in the alcoholic beverage industry.

A known method of aging wine, providing for the filling into a container of previously subjected wine processing, ripening it in the aging process by contacting it with oak wood at a temperature of 18-25 ^o C for 11-13 months in an enameled tank, followed by aging it in anoxic conditions under a layer inert gas (SU, AS 657061, class C 12 H 1/22, publ. 15.04.79).

 The disadvantage of this method is its complexity and high costs.

 There is a method of aging an alcoholic beverage, providing for its filling into the tank system and aging in the presence of oak rivets and atmospheric oxygen by moving from one stage of aging to another and activating oak riveting (SU, AS 309951, class C 12 H 1/22 op. 26.07.91). The disadvantage of this method is its complexity and high labor costs.

 A known method of aging wine and other drinks, which provides for feeding into the lower part of a vessel made of steel and divided by mesh transverse partitions into parts, the upper and lower of which is filled with filter material, for example, sawdust of vinyl plastic or brass, and in the middle there are sleeves made of non-magnetic material or plastics, between which ring permanent magnets are placed, cleaning the drink from coarse particles, exposure to electromagnetic fields to clean from finer and colloidal particles , iron compounds and complex molecules of its compounds, the release of coagulated particles of impurities of organic and inorganic origin and the conclusion of the vessel (SU, AS 155794, CL 12 H 1/16, op. 1963).

 The disadvantage of this method is that it, as well as the capacity for its implementation, is not multifunctional.

 Known capacity for aging wines or alcoholic beverages, which is a sealed enameled cylindrical tank with oak rivets placed in it, mounted on frames consisting of transverse ribs, some of which are arranged vertically, and the others are horizontally and fastened together by longitudinal bars, while oak riveting plates are mounted on the rib in horizontal rows with the formation of gaps between adjacent plates, and the tank is equipped with a valve for oxygen supply, monomet rum and thermometer (SU, A.S. 215186, class C 12 H 1/22, op. 03.04.68).

 A disadvantage of the known capacity is the complexity of its manufacture and little functionality.

 A known method of aging cognac alcohol and a container for its implementation, the method provides for pouring cognac alcohol into a metal sealed vessel with tubes located inside it made of radially chipped oak rivets, fixed in tube sheets, aging in the presence of oak wood and air oxygen (SU, and S. 87105, CL C 12 H 1/22, claimed 26.12.49).

 The disadvantage of this method and capacity is the low quality of the resulting drink and the complexity of manufacturing the container.

 The closest method of aging the alcoholic beverage and the capacity for its implementation is the method of filling the original beverage in a bottle of glass or stainless steel, inside which is placed a tubular insert of wood, such as oak or ash with a channel associated with the atmosphere, with a means for capping and the aging of the beverage by contact with oak wood (UK application N 1602739, CL C 12 H 1/22, op. 18.11.81).

 The disadvantage of this method and capacity is that the finished product has insufficiently high organoleptic characteristics.

 The technical result of the claimed invention is to expand the functionality of the tank, expanding the range of alcoholic beverages and obtaining alcoholic beverages with higher organoleptic characteristics.

 The technical result is achieved in a method of aging an alcoholic beverage, comprising pouring the original beverage into a container that is a glass bottle, and aging it by contacting the oak wood so that the oak wood is flavored first, while the drink is flavored and refined, which uses wood oak with burnt holes and vacuum-burned on its outer surface data labels, coloures and counter labels, respectively, while the drink is complementary but is contacted with the material, flavoring the beverage, and aging, aromatization and purification is carried out immediately before the beverage consumption.

 It is advisable to carry out aromatization with an ingredient that gives the aroma inherent in the finished drink.

 It is recommended to use oak buds, acorn buds, acorns, natural oak powder, oak leaves, berries as a material that gives the taste of the drink.

 The technical result is achieved in a container for aging an alcoholic beverage, which is a glass bottle with a means for capping, inside which a hollow cylindrical insert made of oak wood is placed, so that the hollow cylindrical insert is placed on the inner side surface of the bottle and has burnt holes on its outer surface on the opposite sides - vacuum-burned labels and coloures and counter-labels respectively, while inside the insert there is a material that gives taste to heel, and means for sealing seals the container during exposure and is made of cork, metal-reinforced hollow tube flared at the ends. The cork stopper in the upper end has a recess in which the packed filter tablet is placed. A cap is held on the outer surface of the neck of the bottle to hold the tablet in the pressed state.

 It is advisable to carve a hollow cylindrical insert from oak according to the shape of the side surface of a glass bottle or to perform from oak veneer, the edges of which are fixed.

 It is recommended to use oak buds, acorn buds, acorns, natural oak powder, oak leaves, fruits, berries, etc. as a material that gives the taste of the drink.

 The drawing shows a container for aging an alcoholic beverage (Fig. 1-9).

 The container is a glass bottle 1, inside of which, on the inner side surface, there is a hollow cylindrical insert 2 made of oak wood, which has burnt holes 3, and on its outer surface on opposite sides - vacuum-burned data for labels 4, collet 5 and counter label 6 Inside the insert 2 is a material 7 that gives the taste of the drink. The container 1 has a means for closing the neck of the bottle 8 in the form of a cork stopper 9, providing its sealing.

 The stopper 9 is reinforced with a metal hollow tube 10 expanded at the ends and has a recess 11 in which the packed tablet filter 12 is placed. A cap 13 is rolled on the outer surface of the neck of the bottle 1.

 The hollow cylindrical insert 2 is made of oak veneer, the edges of which are fixed or turned from oak in the form of a hollow cylinder in the shape of the side surface of the glass bottle 1.

 The method is as follows.

 Oak wood (Box 2) is pre-flavored with an ingredient that gives the aroma inherent to the finished drink. Then insert 2 from the oak wood into the bottle 1 and pour the initial alcoholic beverage, place the material 7, which gives the taste of the drink inside the insert 2, and seal the bottle with a cork stopper 9, cap 13 is rolled on its neck. The alcoholic beverage is kept immediately before it is used, wherein the drink is subjected to aging, aromatization and purification by contacting with oak wood in the form of a hollow cylindrical insert 2 with burnt holes 2 and burned in vacuum on the outer surface of the insert 2 with on the opposite sides, respectively, labels 4, collet 5 and counter label 6. As material 7, which gives the taste of the drink, oak buds, acorn buds, acorns, natural oak powder, oak leaves, fruits, berries are used. Due to the fact that the insert, carved from oak in the shape of the side surface of the bottle or made of oak veneer, is placed on the side surface in a glass bottle, the contact area of the drink with the oak wood increases, and the burned-out data of the label, tint and counter-label is not only informative, but also functional, because they, like burnt holes, allow contact with a larger area of charred wood, which improves the quality of the finished product and cleans it, wetting it with aged, i.e. a better drink improves the quality of the finished product, is introduced into the gap between the surface of the bottle 1 and insert 2, and due to the migration of ions of flavoring substances it will be possible to flavor the drink during the entire aging process.
