There are whisky investors all around the world who have been adding whisky casks to their portfolios for a long time. Investing in high quality alcohol is a very attractive proposition due to historical returns of close to 13% per annum. In the past, whiskey investors were mostly wealthy private investors who were not deterred by the high barriers to entry. This is because not everyone has the necessary capital, contacts or time to acquire such an investment on their own. 
 
Whisky must be matured in a cask for at least three years before it can officially be called "whisky". Three years is not always the final figure, there are many whiskeys that are aged for 10, 12 or even 20 years before being bottled. 
 
Since whisky does not continue to mature after bottling, it is crucial to let it mature in the cask until the desired age is reached. 
 
For distilleries, this means that a lot of capital is tied up in whisky casks that sit around unused for years before the contents are bottled and sold. The tied-up capital could otherwise be used by the distillery for investments in research and development activities, facilities or marketing. 
 
Due to high demand, whisky is being bottled younger and younger. This means that we are already in possession of a scarce commodity. The scarcer the commodity, the higher the earnings potential.

We have rated the upside potential of this investment opportunity as relatively high. When averaged out among similar investments, whiskeys of this kind return approximately 13% per annum. The return could end up being much higher if the distillery continues to grow in popularity and as the whiskey exceeds 8 years of age.

Return

We have rated the stability of this investment opportunity as relatively high. The maturing whiskey gains value over time. This decreases the probability of making a loss at the end of the investment period even if the base price might ﬂuctuate to a certain extent. Additionally, whiskey cannot traditionally “go bust” as it’s not a business entity.

Stability

Own part of a high quality Irish whiskey cask.

We have rated the track record of this investment opportunity as medium. On one hand, investing in aging whiskey is something that has been done for more than a century, but on the other hand, the Distillery in question is still young and in the process of establishing themselves on the market. However, as previously mentioned, the Master Distiller is particularly experienced and has a very positive track record.

Track Record

This is an investment opportunity where we have recalculated the expected performance given by the external expert and have thus verified that a positive Return can be expected after deduction of all costs for storage and insurance.

Furthermore, we have verified the existence, the professional storage and the insurance of the cask.
