Abstract[English] The chemical and physical properties of wooden casks is what facilitates the traditional aging of beverages like wine, whiskey, rum other spirits, and beer. The aging process is halted when the product is packaged into bottles for distribution into the supply chain for public consumption because there is no longer exposure to the wood surface for extraction and micro-oxygenation. The potential for extended aging and increase in quality from the time of bottling to the time of actual consumption by the end user is therefore lost. Our invention is a re-useable composite bottle incorporating a replaceable wooden base which allows for gas exchange and limited but sufficient extraction of the desirable compounds. This allows the product to increase in quality by continuing the aging process while passing time in storage or transit through the distribution stream and on to the end user.[French] Les propriétés chimiques et physiques des fûts en bois facilitent le vieillissement traditionnel de boissons telles que la bière, le vin, le whisky, le rhum et d'autres spiritueux. Le processus de vieillissement est interrompu lorsque le produit est conditionné en bouteilles pour être distribué dans la chaîne d'approvisionnement en vue de sa consommation finale, car il n'y a plus d'exposition à la surface du bois pour l'extraction et la micro-oxygénation. Le potentiel de vieillissement prolongé et d'amélioration de la qualité entre le moment de la mise en bouteille et celui de la consommation effective par l'utilisateur final est donc perdu. L'invention concerne une bouteille composite réutilisable, dotée d'un fond en bois remplaçable, qui permet l'échange gazeux et une extraction limitée, mais suffisante, des composés souhaités. Cela permet au produit d'augmenter sa qualité en poursuivant le processus de vieillissement tout en passant par le stockage ou le transit dans le circuit de distribution jusqu'au consommateur final.
