Riverside provide a professional and personalised service that clients can rely upon every step of the way. Our primary objective is to help clients understand the dynamics of the cask whisky market, share our knowledge and experience so they can benefit from our collective data analysis and trade resources.

Our philosophy is based on long-term client relations and working partnerships which starts and remains with our clients. Our aim is to guide clients through the selection and acquisition process, based on the analysis of reliable independent market data, which allows us to build diverse well-balanced cask whisky portfolios, that are both, desirable and lucrative.

As a client you benefit from our industry experience, market knowledge and network of trade suppliers.

This combined with a wealth of independent analysis allows us to help you select the most appropriate whisky and casks to meet your personal requirements and objectives.

We recommend selecting a range of casks from different distilleries when possible, to give balance, spread and depth to a portfolio.

Clients have full beneficial ownership and control over their whisky assets on confirmation of receipt and release of cleared funds by our third-party payment services provider.

Location of storage and cask bonded status is controlled by the HMRC regulated storage provider who acts as the agent in relation to suspended Duty and VAT status for the client.

There are no additional costs involved when investing with Riverside Whisky Partners as we pay for the storage and insurance of your cask(s).

Charges that may be incurred in relation to cask ownership would only be upon your request. These include regauging, re-racking or sampling your cask.

One of our team of consultants will contact you personally to establish your understanding of the market and objectives to ensure we are not making recommendations in isolation of your current strategies.

Should you then wish to get more seriously involved, we would look to help you select a young trade brand of cask whisky that has demonstrated good potential and showing steady demand.

We are likely to suggest a couple of options, and should you wish to proceed we would check availability with trade suppliers.

Once availability can be confirmed we will raise a Proforma Invoice for the stock and send this out to you via DocuSign. This will detail the whisky stock by brand or make, and include the type of cask, volume of whisky content in litres (OLA) ‘Original Litres of Alcohol’ and the strength of the whisky, the (ABV) ‘Alcohol by Volume’ and the agreed purchase price.
