How Whisky Casks Became a Hot Investment

Worried about your financial future? Turned off by the stock market’s constant ups and downs? You need some whisky. Both in a glass, neat, and in your investment portfolio. That’s the aim of Braeburn Whisky, which is not an obscure Speyside single malt but rather a financial firm that helps investors acquire and manage whisky cask investment portfolios from leading Scotch distilleries.

Invest in whisky and make money? If you think of the brown spirit like any other commodity, it’s not a far-fetched idea. We’ve covered whisky cask investments before — the returns are solid (investors working with Braeburn Whisky globally have earned median net annual realized returns of 12.45%) and you get a chance to actually put your money where your mouth usually is. These aren’t nebulous investments; they’re real casks and tangible, delicious assets that you’re buying and selling.
