Your Investment Specialist for New-Fill Scottish Whisky
Welcome to the lucrative world of trading Scottish Single Malt Whisky!
Our focus is purely doing one thing and doing it right… and then repeating that process. This involves the first stage of buying a branded New Fill Single Malt and selling it to market in 3 years – we rely on time, a 500-year-old industry and a secondary market that now exports more than £1 billion pounds worth of Scottish Single Malts every year.
Spirit Traders specialise in the buying and selling of Hogsheads and Butts of branded Single Malt Whisky from Scotland. We are a commission-based business that derives income from the buying and selling of Single Malts and heavily focused on ensuring that every acquisition is registered, insured and stored securely on behalf of our clients. That’s the foundation of our business.
We are entrusted to arrange storage and insurance by virtually all our clients, who know ‘exactly’ where their investments are stored and that it is totally safe and secure, which is just as important as the investment itself.
We are very focused on primary and secondary markets in Asia including India, China, Japan, South Korea, Singapore, as well as Europe. Read more analysis on the Scotch Whisky market below.

Why Whisky? Why Casks?
Scotch Whisky can only be distilled and matured in one country, yet it is sold in over two hundred markets worldwide. Global demand continues to rise beyond all expectations, and the number of aged casks in Scotland continues to diminish with only 15% of the Whisky being 5 years or older. Whilst this is bad news for consumers and distillers, it means the value of casks is growing dramatically which is certainly good news for owning a cask.
Unlike the volatile market of bottled Whisky, casks have proven a much safer consideration. Spirit Traders isn’t just selling you bulk litres of alcohol or a share in a cask, we sell you the cask in its entirety which affords you the comfort of numerous exit strategies. This also means that your holding is more secure as you are not waiting for a single bottle to spike in value, but instead simply maturing the raw materials until you’re ready to realise your return.
