Choosing and Buying Your Whisky Cask
After a brief chat, we are certain you will know the best way for you to enter into whisky investment and start making a profit. Our dedicated experts will advise you on the best cask for your needs and budget and present you with several options for your first cask. The steps are simple: after signing the agreement and completing the payment, you will receive your Cask Certificate of Title and Transfer of Ownership. These documents prove that you are the new owner of the cask.

Storage and Insurance
Allow your cask to mature in our government-bonded warehouse in Scotland, overseen by professionals. As the new proud owner of your first Scotch whisky cask, you will have all the information you need at your disposal. Over time, your whisky will continue to mature and grow more complex in its cask, unlike bottles that stop ageing.

Exit Strategies
The time will come when you’re ready to sell your casks, and Rare Finds Worldwide will be there to help you every step of the way. Retrade, auction, or bottle your cask with help from our whisky cask investment team. Retrading your cask or selling it via auction are the easiest options. Our extensive channels and growing client base will make this process quick and easy. Simply name your price and wait for a sale. Alternatively, you can bottle your cask and sell it via stores and sales channels. Note that this option is only recommended for business owners, stores, and those with established sales channels.
BENEFITS TO INVESTING IN WHISKY CASKS
Excellent Performance
Rare whisky has increased in value by 564% during the past decade. The average annual returns per cask range from 10 to 15%. It is the best performing alternative asset class, outgrowing cars, coins, stamps, art, and wine.
Unique and Limited
No two casks of rare Scotch whiskies are the same due to all the elements that affect the ageing of the spirit. When the bottles from a cask are gone, they are gone, making it a limited commodity.
Evolving in Value
As whisky ages, it will pick up flavours and colours from the wood of the used barrels. Unlike wine, the ageing process for whisky stops once bottled. The longer a whisky ages in the barrel, the greater the flavours imparted from the wood into the drink. As a result, it becomes smoother and more complex.
Safe and Secure
Casks are individually numbered and held in government bonded warehouses, making them much easier to authenticate than bottles.
Tangible Asset
Whisky casks are a tangible asset that you physically own. It is a collectable asset that could be used to mark important milestones and be handed down to the next generation.
Investment Realisation
Our extensive client base and network within the whisky investment industry provide a hassle-free exit for your investment.
