Yes and No. Casks of premium whiskey can give their owners an excellent ROI. Many different factors can influence this, not least the quality and rarity of a cask, the quality of whiskey stored inside it and the brand value of the distillery. We expect all our cask owners to make a return on their whiskey investment as their whiskey ages and develops an even more complex flavour profile. This is as much an investment in quality whiskey flavour as much as it is a monetary investment. However, we do not sell casks as a “Get-Rich-Quick investment scheme.” We encourage individuals and corporates to buy casks for personal enjoyment, to own and possibly share something truly special, unique and evolving which can be used to mark a milestone in life or in business or to sell it on.
Yes, you own the cask and the whiskey inside the cask. However, most clients forego keeping the empty cask as they realise the size and weight of moving around such a heavy and bulky item.
Founder Kevin McParland was Cask Estate Director at Powerscourt Distillery for 7 years and personally knows the provenance of this award-winning whiskey extremely well. Each cask also comes with a cask stock certificate. It’s provenance and production is exceptional.
We offer premium, mature Irish Whiskey. These casks were filled by the distillery with their premium quality Single Malt or Single Pot Still Irish Whiskeys 3-7 years ago. The liquid has been carefully aging in first-fill ex-bourbon casks for between 3 and 7 years. It is now Premium Matured Irish Whiskey
Yes. One of the more challenging aspects of owning a cask of whiskey is adhering to the government criteria on labelling and using the proper supplychain when bottling. We have extensive experience in bottling casks of whiskey and we can look after the entire process for you providing you with your own personalised bottles of premium Irish Whiskey.
Yes, we regularly cater for syndicates of 2-4+ people who purchase a cask together or for companies who buy a cask for clients or to celebrate a landmark in their company’s history.
It depends on the age of the whiskey when disgorging for bottling and on the bottling strength. As a natural part of the maturation process, a little of the liquid evaporates each year. This is known as “The Angel’s Share.”
Older, more complex casks of whiskey have slightly less whiskey remaining, but an 8 year old whiskey bottled at our recommended 46% ABV would yield around 325 bottles.
Yes. It is your cask and you can sell the cask onto a new owner. Just contact us to let us know the new owner’s name and details. We need the new owners details in order to transfer ownership. A cask of Whiskey is regarded as a “wasting Asset” due to the evaporation of the liquid. It is not liable for Capital Gains Tax. We do encourage clients to take advice on their own tax positions.
Yes. All our casks come with at least 24 additional months storage and maturation included in the cost. If you wish to mature your whiskey to an older age statement. You can pay for additional storage and insurance once your storage is running out. Additional storage beyond the included 24 months is roughly €100/year plus vat.
