Invest in Irish Whiskey – Cask Programme
News • 23rd Mar, 21
Irish whiskey is the fastest growing premium spirit in the world. The industry has seen phenomenal growth over the last 10 years with sales increasing by more than 180%, growing from 5 million cases in 2010 to 12 million cases by January 2020. Sales are projected to double by 2030.
This has seen an increase in people starting Whiskey Collections and investing directly in the Whiskey sector. In 2019 Whiskey topped Knight Frank’s luxury investment index after its introduction in 2018 beating more established alternative assets investments such as art, wine and cars.
A common way to invest in Whiskey is via a cask programme that many distilleries offers its consumers. Its relatively affordable and allows you to follow the journey of your individual cask. You can mature your Whiskey in your preferred cask type and get the finished product you desire.
It can be purchased as an individual, a family, a group of friends, an organisation or club/corporate entity and gives you the opportunity to benefit from the growth and global demand for Irish Whiskey.
