Exit Strategies

It's the journey, not the destination that matters. But, cask whiskey is not a dividend paying investment, so the destination is where the money is. The following are ways to fruitfully end your cask ownership journey.

Option 1: Peer to Peer Sales

Casks of whiskey can take many years before they reach their full potential, if you can't wait the full period, there is someone who can. We facilitate these peer to peer sales with rates that make both parties happy.

Option 2: Sale to the
industry or syndicates.

Once the whiskey is ready to be bottled, if the owner does not wish to incur the expense themselves, we find the right people to bottle it. These may be independent bottling companies, or clubs who want to split the cost of bottling between all their members.

Option 3: Auctions and Private Sales

When it comes to sale of your cask, auctions and private sales can be viable options. If you wish to utilise your own network to sell your cask that is perfectly ok, or we can find the right auction house for you.
