WHISKY COLLECTING

A steady demand, tangibility, and a scarcity of supply are among the factors driving an increasing number of collectors to include rare whisky in their portfolios. Many view it not only as a financial refuge but also as a captivating subject of indulgence.

For those already immersed in fine wine collecting, the allure of rare whisky shares similarities. Primarily, the demand surpasses the available supply. Collectible whiskies are highly sought after by consumers, causing a significant portion of limited edition bottlings to rapidly become even more limited as enthusiasts eagerly acquire them.

PERFORMANCE

The whisky industry, estimated to have reached a valuation of $66.5 billion in 2022, has demonstrated remarkable growth, surpassing established alternative asset categories such as watches, art, and automobiles. Over the past few years, notable whisky sales have underscored this expansion, exemplified by the extraordinary auction of a single bottle of Macallan 1926, which set a new record at £1.5 million.

The performance of the whisky market has exhibited notable dynamism in recent times, characterised by a surge in interest and demand, particularly for limited-edition and rare bottlings. This heightened demand has translated into commendable returns for discerning investors. However, it is imperative to acknowledge the inherent unpredictability of the whisky market, which is not devoid of risks. Fluctuations in prices are influenced by diverse factors, including the reputation of the distillery, the age of the whisky, and prevailing market trends.
