White oak (Quercus alba)

Other names: White oak

Harm score: 1 (Natural substances)


White oak, also known as white oak, is a highly prized tree native to eastern and central North America. It is very popular for its distinctive and strong wood. It is characterised by a height of up to 35 metres, a wide crown and a thick trunk that can reach up to two metres in diameter. Its leaves are alternate, entire or weakly lobed, always green, and change to a wonderful variety of colours in autumn. The fruit of the white oak are acorns with a peculiar, deep-set nut.

As for the uses of white oak, its wood is a very popular material for furniture, floors, doors and windows. Thanks to its resistance to rot and mould, it is also used in shipbuilding. However, its use in barrel staves is very important. White oak is one of the best trees for making wine and whisky casks. The delicate flavour and aroma that white oak wood imparts to drinks is highly appreciated by lovers of these alcoholic specialities. The wood's qualities in carpentry and bridge building are also exceptional.
