INVESTING IN WHISKY CASKS
The growth in the whisky industry over the past 10 years has made it impossible for distilleries to meet demand. Whisky production takes time which has led to a limited supply of mature whisky in casks. Cask investors stand to reap the rewards by just owning and holding casks while demand continues to rise.
WHY WHISKY CASK
CAPITAL APPRECIATION
Over the past 20 years, anyone who has purchased a whisky cask has seen a significant appreciation in the value of their asset. Capital growth is driven exclusively by supply and demand. Whisky casks have shown exceptional stability over the long-term, making whisky casks an important holding for strategic investors looking to diversify their portfolio.
TIME BRINGS VALUE
As the whisky is allowed to mature inside the cask, its rarity and price grow exponentially.
CURRENCY HEDGE
Scottish whisky casks are traded in pounds (£/GBP), providing your portfolio with a natural foreign currency hedge.
SECURITY AND PEACE OF MIND
Due to the regulations put in place by the Scottish government all whisky casks are stored in government bonded warehouses under the strict oversight of the Scottish government. Investors can expect complete transparency and full disclosure throughout the entire lifecycle of the investment. Whisky casks cannot be faked or forged and each one is completely unique.
