Whisky Investing 101

Whisky Investing 101 – Whisky has blossomed into an enormous industry that generates more than £5 billion in annual sales volume. Many manufacturers, distilleries and investors have managed to make great fortunes as the spirit has proliferated around the globe. Now, you have the opportunity to add whisky investments to your portfolio.

Once the whisky is removed from the cask and bottled, the aging process stops. Bottled whisky does not mature with age, its characteristics will remain the same indefinitely and any appreciation in value will be solely dictated by changes in demand for the particular release. For this reason, the purchase of casks offers a far more compelling investment opportunity. By holding whisky casks, investors can realise dual channels of price appreciation in order to achieve maximum returns.

In order to get started, the first step is finding casks that meet your investment objectives. Our team will take a careful look at your budget, desired holding period and personal preferences to recommend a whisky portfolio perfectly suited to you. You will be able to choose from hundreds of casks across investment categories. This is an exciting process that allows you to evaluate whisky casks produced at the world’s leading distilleries.
