A great chance to own a cask from the Boann Distilery. This is a Single Pot Still that is about to turn 3 years old on the 8th of March. It is currently aging in a plantation rum cask made from american oak. It is currently sitting at 60.54% abv. The cask is cask number SPW000045

American Oak adds a lovely brown Sugar, vanilla, light nuttiness to the spirit.
Wile the rum barrels deliver a subtle, yet fantastic sweetness to whiskey spirit. These casks started their lives as ex-bourbon barrels before being used to mature tropical rums

This is Subject to the terms and conditions of Staffords Bonded warehouse. Why buy a cask – Buyers of casks are usually from 2 groups of people. Either buying for fun as an individual or as part of a group looking to follow the journey of the cask and then to decide on how long to mature or to change the maturation cask down the line. Or buying as an investment. The value of whiskey casks is related ultimately to supply & demand. Some companies are currently advertising that huge profits can be made but at Celtic Whiskey we'd like to reduce down these expectations. We would like to point out that the value can go up or down so like all investments you should take expert advice if you are buying for that reason. Just because a bottle sells on a retail shelf for say €100, that doesn't give it that value necessarily to a cask owner. The €100 includes 23% vat, a retailers margin, possibly a wholesalers margin, cost of bottling & dry goods, distribution cost, etc. Also, customers have to want to buy your particular product which is the reason similar aged whiskeys can have widely differing sales prices. If looking to sell on bottles of whiskey, please be aware you would need a wholesalers licence if not in the trade.
