Auction Your Cask - Why Get Involved in Whisky Casks?
July 2022 has seen new records set in the cask industry, with the historic £16 million Ardbeg cask sale. A female whisky collector in Asia bought Cask No. 3, which was distilled on Tuesday 25 November 1975. For the next five years, the buyer is going to receive 88 bottles of single malt whisky from this cask, creating a distinct vertical series of Ardbeg whiskies.
