There are many reasons why investors should consider rare bottles of whisky as one of the best alternative investment opportunities. Rare whisky has been by far the top performer among luxury goods for some time. Its value has risen over 428% in the last decade and is not directly tied to stock market conditions. So while equities could experience significant price corrections, whisky would steadily increase in value over time. 
&nbsp;

Key factors for whisky as an investment:

Reputation 
We only invest in whisky of the highest quality that is perceived as such by the trade and the public. It is advisable to buy aged whisky from well-known and established distilleries, or at least from those with promising growth prospects in the coming years. 
&nbsp;

Supply and demand 
The value of whisky, like much else, is subject to the fundamental law of supply and demand. In the world of investing, this means that it is strategically important to look for bottles for which there will continue to be high demand in the future and for which supply will remain limited. The price paid for a fine bottle of whisky can be quite high, regardless of availability. However, it looks even more exclusive when only a few bottles are still available worldwide. 
 
On the demand side, the global whisky market was estimated at USD 79.6&nbsp;billion in 2022&nbsp;and is expected to reach USD 109&nbsp;billion by 2026. 
&nbsp;

Special Release 
Special releases offer the greatest assurance that your whisky is unique. Examples could include bottlings of a new product or limited editions associated with specific events. This creates a guarantee that there will be no replenishment for future bottlings, adding to the "sentimental value" that many whisky lovers are happy to pay for. 
 
Paying for the brand is part of consumption and applies equally to whisky. Awards and reputation of the distilleries in question are the decisive selection criteria for us. Buying a bottle of whisky that has won well-known awards can further increase the investment potential.

10201 The Devil's Keep - 1991

We have rated the upside potential of this investment opportunity as high. According to a Knight Frank report, Rare Whiskey has increased by over 564% during the last decade. This is an average increase for Rare Whiskey, and many reasons indicate that „The Devil’s Keep“ is indeed an aboveaverage release.

Return

We have rated the stability of this investment opportunity as medium. It is important to remember that even though Rare Whiskey has been on the rise, this does not automatically protect every single bottle from fluctuating. Prices fetched by individual bottles can vary even though the general trend is very positive. Additionally, whiskey cannot traditionally “go bust” as it’s not a corporate entity. As a result, we believe this opportunity has a very attractive risk to reward ratio.

Stability

An ultra rare 29 year old Irish Whiskey from the oldest licensed distillery in the world.

The Devils Keep - Bottle No. 206

We have rated the track record of this investment opportunity as medium. On one hand, investing in whiskey bottles is something that has been done for a very long time, but on the other hand, the Craft Irish Whiskey Co. is a relatively young brand and still in the process of establishing themselves on the market. However, as previously mentioned, the whiskey they source for „The Devil’s Keep“ is of the highest quality. So far, they have done an outstanding job, which is reﬂected by the fact that they have already broken multiple records and accumulated various awards in a very short time period.
