Why it works

Built for bottles that deserve more than a barcode.

  • Captures store name, barrel number, batch, proof, and other collector-grade label details.
  • Supports up to three photos per bottle when front labels and back labels both matter.
  • Faster than manual entry in Notes, Airtable, or a spreadsheet you never want to touch again.

The first app that actually handles store picks

I've tried other whiskey apps and none of them handle store picks or barrel selections well. BarrelBook nails it—scans the label, picks up the barrel number, batch info, and even the store name. Finally an app built for how bourbon actually works.

How it works

Snap, review, save.

Turn a few bottle photos into a clean, editable record you can search later when you are at the store, at a tasting, or standing in front of your shelf.

1

Snap the label

Take up to three photos so BarrelBook can see the front label, back label, and any tricky barrel or batch text.

2

Review the details

Check the extracted proof, batch, store-pick, and bottle data before it hits your shelf.

3

Save it to your collection

Keep the cleaned-up record with the rest of your bottles, ready to search, edit, or share later.

Collector proof

Real collectors use it because scanning has to hold up in the messy cases.

These are the reviews that matter for scanning: fast capture, clean records, and bottle details that generic whiskey apps usually skip.

Frequently asked questions

The short version of what collectors usually want to know before they install.

How does AI recognition work?
Open BarrelBook, take up to three bottle photos, and the app reads the label text to prefill the record. Multi-angle photos help when a bottle has meaningful detail on the back label or in smaller print.
What information can it capture?
Typical fields include the producer, expression, proof, batch or barrel identifiers, store-pick details, pricing, and other label micro-text that collectors care about.
Does it work for store picks and private barrels?
Yes. BarrelBook is specifically useful for store picks, barrel selections, and other collector bottles where the details are not just a UPC code and a bottle name.
