Thank you for your review Frank. We are glad that we could assist you in the cask buying process.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Highly recommended

enquired to a few companies regarding cask investment, I was not impressed as most were like double glazing salesman , you could tell they just wanted to suck you in to take your money. Then I got a call back from Aaron Carpenter from Vintage and knew this was a company I could trust, these boys make commission on the future sale of your cask so it’s a team effort. There is no point them selling you a cask that does not perform as they loose out as well, Arron updated me on all aspects of the whisky market and I eventually invested £12k on 2 casks with them and intend investing more in the near future

Highly recommended and thank you Arron

I have no previous experience of investing in whiskey so I am pleased report that from my first enquiry to purchase I found Vintage Acquisitions' representative, Matthew, to be very helpful and informative about buying some barrels for my grandsons. Matthew kept in touch without being "pushy" while I was deciding about the purchase. I feel confident the investment is in safe hands.

Fantastic end-to-end service for my first whisky investment!

This was my first time investing in whisky and I couldn't have asked for more from my new account manager Robin after being referred to Vintage Acquisitions by a friend.
From the initial phone call, through to purchasing my first cask, I was very impressed by his knowledge, expertise and passion for the industry and investment strategies.
I was also introduced to one of the partners, Adam and I was very impressed with the vision for Vintage Acquisitions. They even accommodated the purchase and selling of a cask so that I could see the full end-to-end operational process. I was pleasantly surprised to find that this was completed in just a few days in a very professional manner. This gave me the confidence to invest further.
The whole experience with Vintage Acquisitions was fantastic!
I am building relationships and learning more about the strategies of investing in whisky so much so that after purchasing my first whisky cask and seeing the end-to-end process, I have purchased several more whisky casks and looking at longer term investments strategies. I am excited what the future holds.
I am truly delighted with Vintage Acquisitions and would highly recommend them to anyone thinking of investing in whisky.

Exceptional Service!

From start to finish Vintage Acquisitions and Olivia in particular has been absolutely superb!
As complete novices to purchasing a whisky cask, Olivia made the entire experience as smooth and easy as possible in the way she explained every single step of the process clearly and professionally.
She is a knowledgeable and efficient communicator who gives sound advice and recommendations. As new customers, slightly apprehensive about this kind of investment, she gave us the confidence to go ahead with our purchase.
We are truly delighted and would recommend Vintage Acquisitions and Olivia to anyone thinking of investing in a whisky cask.

I was referred to Vintage Acquisitions with Lauren

I was referred to Vintage Acquisitions by a friend, and we went through a process of investing together with the help of Lauren from Vintage Acquisitions, who was great in helping us with our investments. We have built a relationship with her and thank her for her patience, support and guidance thought this initial process. Lauren invited us to the office to meet the team and really made an effort to make us feel comfortable and to provide us with as much information we needed before taking on any investments. She regularly keeps us updated with information and is always available to speak to if needed! we look forward to working with her in the future and growing our portfolio.

From offering to purchase my 27 yr old cask to prompt payment, Robin & George’s advice and knowledge made it enjoyable & professional. I can’t wait to buy a couple of bottles from it soon as I didn’t need the 200+ it held. It has been a profitable investment too!

Vintage Accusations whiskey.

I Enquired about investing in whiskey for the first time. Totally in the dark about everything, didnt have a clue about anything but was contacted by Lauren at vintage. She walked me through everything and made sure I understood it all. Wasn’t at all pushy and helped every bit of the way. She was an absolute delight to deal with and i look forward to dealing with her again in the near future. My experience was so reassuring and exciting that i will be dealing again when i can afford it.
