Wow! What an unfortunate situation. Ants do leave a scent when they travel so I don't know if keeping it will attract more ants. Something to think about if you're considering keeping the barrel. Best of luck to you and thanks for your support 🤗
Kwanzan Cherry trees are most definitely expensive and I hate that you lost it to those ants. That whiskey barrel is reusable though so please don’t trash it. Thanks for sharing and stay blessed! -Calvin

Thank you. I sanded away a lot of the damage and will use again.

Thank you. I sanded away all the damaged parts of the wood and will use again.
Sorry to hear about your tree. $150 is a lot, especially to lose it to some ants! I would still use the barrel though. Looks good to me.
Yep, I'm going to order another cherry tree and place it in the front yard and move the grapefruit tree to the back.
