North America has the highest amount of Oak species within its regions. There are roughly 90 within the United States, whereas Mexico harbors roughly 160 species. The next highest population of Oaks occurs in China with roughly about 100 species. They can have entire leaves with smooth margins or can consist of serrated leaves, which are arranged in a spiral manner. They drop dead leaves in spring and then producing a fruit(nut), commonly known as an acorn. Due to this, it is considered a flowering plant.
Not only are Oak trees popular in the use of building materials, but the wood is also commonly used in the production of various Whiskey’s, Wines, and Brandy, among others. These are typically hit with fire to produce a char that attributes a refined aroma, taste, and colour…in particular adding a hint of vanillin flavor from its cask. Chips of Oakwood are commonly used for smoking various meats, as well as cheeses. In Japan, Yamaha drums use the wood for making drums, and bark from the Cork Oak is used to make wine stoppers – which are commonly known as corks. As you can see the benefits of the mighty Oak are wide! Find out the benefits of how beautiful this sturdy wood will look within your home with our wide plank flooring!
You, Tom, and Tracy went above and beyond for me on this project and I have told everyone I could. I could not have asked for anything better my friend. I was able to design and build the exact vision of my dream house thanks to AAH. You have to come see it once the garage doors and appliances are in.
Appalachian Antique Hardwoods is well known locally for their attention to detail, beautiful hardwoods and the personal service given to each customer. A very sweet family business that we would recommend.
Excellent to work with. High quality product, on time delivery.
After hiring a less expensive company to supply barn wood and beams in a barn addition I realized I had made a mistake in hiring them. After six months and no progress, one unkempt promise after another, I went another direction. I had talked to Appalachian Antique Hardwood originally, so I called them again. They immediately came out and hit every milestone and delivered the completed project three days before Christmas, and still hit my deadline. The quality of the workmanship was great. I would highly recommend them.
