Whisky as an asset · Est. cask register
Time is the only ingredient we can't manufacture.
Cask Base gives you direct ownership of maturing Scotch: whole casks or fractional shares, with bonded storage, independent valuations and an unbroken record of every hand it passes through.

coded & QR tracked
Every cask on our register is a physical, finite object. We source it, seal it, code it and log every movement, inspection and valuation until you decide to exit.
KYC before you invest
Every client completes KYC, and every cask is inspected and independently valued.
HMRC-bonded storage
Casks stay in duty-suspended bonded warehouses in Scotland and England, fully insured.
Coded and scannable
Each cask carries a permanent code and QR label. Scan it and see the same record we do.
Complete KYC
Create an account and complete Know Your Customer checks once. Usually reviewed within one working day.

Your cask never leaves the chain.
Movements, inspections, revaluations and changes of ownership are appended to a record that cannot be edited. Corrections are added, never overwritten, so the history stays intact for the life of the cask.
Verify a cask codeIndependent audit
An outside firm checks every cask, twice a year.
Every six months an independent accountancy firm is given read-only access to our full cask record: each cask on the register, where it is stored, every movement and valuation, and exactly who owns what share of it. They confirm that each cask a client paid for was bought, is in bond, and is owned by that client alone. Their signed report is published here for anyone to read.
Audit reports
The first audit report will be published here at the end of the current period.
