Your Cask Investment Journey

Tangible Asset:

Cask Irish whiskey is a physical asset you can touch, see, and even enjoy, offering a more personal connection than many other investments.

Fully Insured:

Each cask comes with 8 years of storage and insurance in a bonded warehouse, ensuring its safety.

HMRC Registered:

All casks are HMRC-registered, with a certificate of ownership and a unique cask number for verification. Through our partnership with ProofWorks, each cask is also secured with blockchain-backed 'Digital Deeds,' ensuring full transparency, authenticity, and fraud protection for investors.

Zero Capital Gains Tax on Sale*:

Cask Irish whiskey is considered a "wasting asset," meaning no capital gains tax is due when sold in cask and in bond.

High Profit Potential:

Historical sales of casks, such as a 12-year-old cask sold for €75,000 and a 27-year-old cask for €907,000, show significant profit potential.

Diversified Low-Risk Investment:

While values may fluctuate, whiskey cask investments have historically increased, providing a low-risk, diversified addition to any portfolio, even for retirement planning.
