I am very satisfied with the service from George. I was obviously cautious as this was my first investment. George patiently confirmed the process and I am confident that I have made a wise investment choice.

Jack was brilliant. He stayed in touch throughout what was a rather turbulent year for us, and never pressure sold in any way. He was patient, warm and friendly, informative, and worked hard to build rapport.When we were ready to invest he was helpful, and the process was really easy and smooth. He even followed up afterwards to confirm what our continued journey may look like.

George, the broker I dealt with, was very polite and informative. He listened to my concerns and adjusted the prospective portfolio to better suit my investment plans. The process of investing in whiskey through VCL is seamless, from their online portal to the physical certificates of cask ownership they sent out next day. I would recommend them to anyone looking to invest in whiskey casks.

Jack called me about a week ago to reestablish contact and discuss current cask investment opportunities. He gave me a general update on the industry and as a result I decided to invest in a cask of Ledaig through VCL.Jack was extremely polite and knowledgeable, there was no pressure to invest and he was happy to answer my extensive list of questions.I'd happily recommend anyone speak with VCL, and Jack in particular, as the service I have received was second to none.Fingers crossed the investment plays out as hoped.

The process of investing couldn't have been smoother! Jack was simply fantastic, all questions answered and any concerns gently rebuffed. From initial investment to receiving the welcome pack / certificates of acquisition I would highly recommend. Thank you Jack and thank you VCL.

I can't recommend V-C-L highly enough. From the very first interaction, it was clear that I was dealing with a top-tier company. Their expertise in whisky investment is second to none, and they have completely transformed my understanding of this market.The team goes above and beyond in offering tailored advice, taking the time to understand my investment goals and ensuring every CASK I purchase is a perfect fit for my portfolio. What really stands out is their deep knowledge of the whisky market – they don’t just sell bottles, they offer valuable insights into trends, rarity, and long-term growth potential.The selection is exceptional—a curated range of premium, investment-grade whiskies that are carefully chosen for their growth potential. I’ve already seen an impressive return on my investments, and I feel confident knowing my portfolio is in such capable hands.Communication has been flawless throughout. Every question, big or small, is answered quickly and with detailed, thoughtful responses. It’s evident that V-C-L values its clients and is deeply invested in ensuring our success.If you are serious about whisky investment, look no further. V-C-L is the gold standard in the industry. Their passion, professionalism, and unmatched customer care make them an easy 5 stars—A++++ across the board!

Excellent, professional, friendly communication from Jack. Great, simply presented information helped me make the choice I’m happy with. No hassle or pressure. Then once I’d agreed the direction, the process was so simple to follow for me to invest and the follow up communications the same as the first.

I have been an investor since 2020 and feel more confident in cask investment rather than stocks and shares. From making my initial enquiry and subsequent investments, I can only commend staff on their professionalism, knowledge and expertise in particular Tommy Major and his PA Martha Ellis. I recently sold a cask and was very pleased with my return on investment.

It took years of research to buy a whisky cask for the 1st time, VCL presented a solid and attractive proposition in the industry, press, social media and website. Specially Ben, also Martha and Mark, made it a consistant and professional experience matching the image created by VCL. A dream came true. Written by a happy customer.

Recently me and my wife began to invest with VCL Vintners and our contact person has been Benjamin Lancaster. The communication has been very easy, efficient and quick, we appreciate him so much. He suggested to us the best combination of casks, and very quickly we signed the agreement. In the future surely we’ll continue to invest with Ben! Thank you very much Ben

I bought a few casks with VCL about 5 years ago and have had a great relationship with the company since. I have just sold one of those casks. The sale was managed well. It was great to make a profit and see the money paid direct into my account. I look forward to further transactions in the future.

Ben from VCL Vinters give me a call just to see how I was doing .on this phone call I asked Ben for a recommendation for another cask as I was looking to invest in another cask. Ben went away and come back with some casks that he thought that I would like to invest in Ben has great knowledge of whisky and can get casks that in your price range and will answer any questions you might have. Now I have 8 casks and that from a canny Scot .
