Third purchase, same high quality service

This was my third purchase and once again Ryan listened to what I was looking for and came up trumps with a great recommendation, fully explained and discussed and within my proposed budget. Transaction handled efficiently and professionally. Now for the long wait.

From my initial first telephone…

From my initial first telephone contact, Guy has been so patient with my time and thought process with investing in a cast. No pressure what so ever. Whisky is something I savour and enjoy to drink. This has been something different for my portfolio, but so glad I managed to invest in young casts that haven't broke the bank. Slàinte Mhaith

Professional, knowledgable and friendly.

I found the friendly team at Vintage Acquisitions at all times helpful and professional. Their in depth knowledge of the whisky market gave me confidence in transacting the sale of an investment cask through them. The process ran smoothly and financial matters were handled without hidden costs. Their knowledge and advice on investment casks is well researched. Dealing with them gives me comfort that the advice I am receiving is balanced and professional.

Excellent company to deal with for our…

Excellent company to deal with for our first investment in whisky. The customer service from our account manager Mark has been nothing but seemless and enjoyable from the beginning he introduced himself after my initial inquiries to them on investment. It is a pleasure working with Vintage Acquisitions and the start of a long relationship with our investment. I would recommend this company to anybody wishing to start a portfolio in whisky investment.

As a first time buyer of whiskey casks

As a first time buyer of whiskey casks, I was unsure how the whole process worked. Ryan explained everything I needed to know and took all the information I had given him to give me some really helpful recommendations, and made the whole process easy. Definitely reccomend!

Great people to trust and work with

I've been struggling on ways on how to retire in the future and was interested in the whisky market. After a couple of days speaking to Ryan, I felt like he totally understand my position in life and what I wanted, which then made me feel comfortable in giving them my money. I bought 4 barrels off them in a couple of months. I probably ask different type of questions every week to him and get detailed solid straight to the point replies, as well as being educated.

What I love about them is that, they all put their money where their mouth is as well. They have their own portfolios and it's not a case of just trying to use other people money.

I highly recommend the company, even having a chat if you're unsure. They put my nerves to rest and back it up with detail and proof. Of course it's impossible to determine how your investment is going to go, but they still show you indications of how it could go.

Every investment is a risk and as long you understand that, you will feel comfortable with these guys. They're not going to promise a guaranteed investment like I've seen on other companies (which is very irresponsible) but they will educate you enough for you to make an inform decision.
