Whether you are a fan of bourbon, stouts, sustainability, beautiful writing instruments, or all of the above, this is the pen for you!
 
Cut from barrel staves this pen includes a convenient metal mesh stylus.  This wood has had 5 lives. First it was a tree, of course.  Then it was used to make barrels for aging fine Kentucky bourbon.  After that, the barrel was used to age a locally brewed bourbon-barrel stout.  From there, I cut the barrel staves to make pens.  And finally, the sawdust created in the pen-making process is composted and will nourish more trees.
