Über Caskshare und deren Angebote haben wir bereits mehrmals berichtet. In der Regel hält man dort Fässer von jungen und aufstrebenden Destillerien zur Teilung vor, nun hat man aber vier Fässer von alteingesessenen Brennereien (eine, die Grain Distillery Cambus, ist sogar bereits geschlossen) bereit.
Anbei die Informationen zu den Fässern und zum Angebot:
New offers from Caskshare
Caskshare allows whisky lovers to reserve ‘shares’ of whisky casks from their favourite distilleries, choosing between a wide variety of wood types and ages as the whisky matures. Single cask bottles will then be sent directly to buyers upon maturation, or even traded between them on this new leading-edge technology platform. Described as ‘crowdfunding for whisky’, the aim of Caskshare is to allow whisky-lovers the chance to experience different cask variations by lowering the financial barrier to cask-ownership.
New casks
The new casks range from a 31 year-old cask, from Cambus which is now no longer even a distillery to the deep red of the Glen Moray, a 1st fill red wine barrique. The new range of casks allow customers to sample whiskies of different ages and finishes from the world’s oldest and newest whisky regions.
