Depending on what they are making, sometimes they do. Re-charing can only go so far and you lose a lot of the elements in the oak when you do. Some casks are one time use only for what they want to make.

    3-4 uses, than they ship them to Scotland to be broken down for scotch.

    I worked at a distillery as a contractor. Orientations include history as well as all the products they make. Also just talking with the higher ups gets some pretty useless neat information.
