This is how I make my bourbon (and wine!) barrel liquor cabinets. I source the barrels from local breweries or distilleries after they are done using them.
1) Remove metal bands from the middle of the barrel - keep the ends on.
2) Sand with 80grit to knock off loose dirt, debris and splinters on the barrel.
3)* Reattach metal bands and secure using drill bit + self tapping screws.
*I now use #8 3/4" truss head wood screws - they work great.

4) Decide and mark where you want your cabinet door to be.
5) Cut out the door using an angle grinder and some sort of saw for the wood.
6) Clean inside of barrel using brushes/power washer/etc.
7) Create the inside the cabinets - top and bottom.
8) Install the lazy susan spinning bottom bracket and attach bottom shelf.
9) Install the top shelf using L brackets.
10) Attach the door, placing the hinges were the door will fully open.
11) Polyurethane entire outside of barrel.
12) Install the LED lighting
13) Install locking hinge.
14) Clean up and sand any areas. Recoat polyurethane if needed. Grind down any sharp bits of metal.
15) Load the barrel up with your favorite bottles!
