About VCL Vintners
London Based Whisky Cask Merchants with Market Leading Performance.
At VCL Vintners we source and manage the finest single malt Scotch whisky casks. These can range from young, new-fill barrels to some of the rarest and oldest casks known to man. We are nearing our 12th year of trading and have exchanged on tens of millions of pounds of whisky, wine, port, champagne and cognac.
Background
The Premier Whisky Cask Broker
Founded in 2010, VCL Vintners source and manage the finest investment-grade single malt whisky casks for their network of retail and institutional investors. VCL Vintners provide investment opportunities ranging from new-fill barrels to some of the oldest and rarest casks available.
Whisky is now one of the globe’s best-performing asset classes, with both prices and demand continuing to grow at a double-digit rate. However, despite these ten-fold increases and interest from new investors, investment-grade whiskies’ reputation for running on relationship-based acquisitions can make it somewhat difficult to enter.
VCL Vintners expert advice assists clients at all stages of their investment journey, allowing investment in a range of whisky options, from sought-after individual bottles to entire casks.
