FAQs
Find answers to the questions we hear most often about casks, tastings, and how we work.
Cask ownership means you hold a rare whisky cask directly, watching it mature over time. You own the spirit inside, the potential it holds, and the story it becomes. It's an investment in something tangible, something real, something that improves with age.
Our tastings are guided journeys through regional whisky styles. We explore Lowlands, Highlands, Speyside, and Islay expressions with expert commentary. Private sessions can be tailored to your preferences and knowledge level. Corporate tastings work as memorable client entertainment.
Rarity comes from age, provenance, and scarcity. Some casks have been maturing for decades. Others come from distilleries no longer in production. We select only those with genuine heritage and proven quality.
Absolutely. Milestone casks are designed for significant moments—births, anniversaries, retirements. A cask matures alongside the recipient, creating a living gift that grows in value and meaning.
It starts with a conversation. We listen to what matters to you—whether that's investment, experience, or legacy. From there, we guide you through selection, acquisition, and ongoing stewardship of your cask.
