We are committed to bringing the most sought after, premium-grade, cask whisky to our discerning clients. With over a decade of industry experience we ensure our clients are only exposed to world famous Scottish distilleries that have a proven track record of excellence.

Our clients typically purchase a ‘young’ cask sourced from a renouned distillery, then simply wait for the cask to age and mature gracefully. The longer the wait the greater the increase in quality and desirability of the cask.

Honesty, legitimacy and high professionalism.

Communicating with Mr. Long was a great pleasure. He guided me all through the way to buy a cask which will have a good return in the future. Showed me how V.A. works regarding this investment.Sent all cerificates and receipts in no time. No hiccups at all. After seeking some investments, V.A. is the one that suits my needs.

Robert and I had been speaking over…

Robert and I had been speaking over several months. Very keen to share his knowledge, answer questions and provided realistic expectations, which for a first time cask investor was invaluable. He explained the process at every stage well. Couldn’t have asked for more.

Whisky Galore

Friendly and helpful over the phone. Lots of information - almost too much. The relationship between OLA and ABV could be clarified in written form. More clarification on CASK# vs CASK Type is required
Once agreement on the product was reached and the go ahead given there was no communication until I received an e-mail asking me when i was going to settle my account!!
I think that prospective clients should be told about Identity Checker - especially if they reside overseas.

Great company to work with

Great company to work with. Guided me through every stage of the process reliably and with great patience. Doing business from another continent and a far removed time zone obviously complicated the process, but things went smoothly throughout. Would be very happy to work with them again.

Fantastic day filling my daughter's first cask

My daughter and I had a fantastic day hosted by VA at the Annandale Distillery, where my daughter filled her first investment cask. The hospitality from both VA and the Annandale team was exceptional with a distillery tour, tastings, all-day food and entertainment. Sometimes whisky investing can seem like a remote financial transaction, but this really brought the experience to life and made us feel part of the VA family. Thank you Olivia for arranging this!

Great service

Lauren was very easy to deal with and clearly knows her whiskey. She answered all my questions and made me feel very comfortable investing. The administrative process was also swift and smooth so overall a 5* experience.

My experience with Vintage Acquisitions for more than two years has been nothing short of exceptional. Ryan and the team have made whiskey cask investment a truly enjoyable and rewarding endeavor. Their dedication to customer satisfaction, quality products, and educational resources is commendable. I highly recommend Vintage Acquisitions to anyone interested in whiskey investment.

Thank you, Vintage Acquisitions, and especially Ryan, for making Annandale event day so seamless and enjoyable.

First time investor trying to diversify…

First time investor trying to diversify my portfolio and after filling in a brief form on their website I was contacted by Jay. I was impressed by the knowledge provided by Jay throughout and the approach of ‘when the time is right’ to make my first purchase. I was provided all the details they had available to help me make an informed decision after performing my own research also. Really liked their marketing materials and YouTube videos which helped build trust in the company. Thanks Jay for all the help so far and I’m looking forward to building my portfolio with your expert guidance over the years to come!

For the love of Single Malts

I had a fun experience with the folks at Vintage. They know their whisky, and its fun to talk with others who love whisky. No pressure to buy was more of a conversation with a friend. It did take a few video calls to find the whisky barrels I was looking for but we got there. I recommend not telling your rep that your just trying to have fun with the investment, I think that threw him off a bit, sorry Mark. Happy to be a part of the single malt investment family.

Great relationship so far!

Our sales rep is Matthew and he has been great. He gave us a number of recommendations and last year we bought our first cask.
After that, we attended a few events organised by Vintage Acquisitions and this year we went to Scotland for an event at the Annandale Distillery. It was a great event with live music, games, lots of food and whisky tasting. We are now proud owners of 2 casks. It was a great experience filling the casks ourselves and signing it.
