Why Cask Trade?

We own the casks we sell meaning we stand by the quality and value of everything on our stock list. We’ll help you taste test the perfect whisky or rum for your needs and keep the cask safe and secure during its life cycle. We perform health checks, samples and tastings to ensure your whisky is always in top condition. No other company can boast these credentials, and we stand by this. With a number of in-house exit options, including our auction site, to buy a barrel of whisky is easy and transparent.
