Years ago, Whisky investment was only available to those connected to the industry, distillery workers, bottlers and suppliers and re-sellers. Some distilleries operated an in-house whisky investment programme aimed at people within their own circles. At Whisky investment UK we have specialist brokers that now have access to some of Scotland’s best cask whisky through years of connections and know how.

Savvy investors already buying whisky will know that there is no Capital gains tax to be paid on whisky when left in Cask, and this is most certainly a very tax efficient investment in today’s market.

That element is what brought our partner group into wholesale sales and storage of cask whisky and what drives us forward with our background firmly in the ethical production of whisky and the energy management work the distilleries undertake. This also shows the work that the distillery and its management are environmental conscious and secures the ongoing future of Islay.
