Very deceptive, valuations are often 2 or 3 times what any buyers are offering. Substantial fees accrue while one waits for an upturn in prices which may never come.

Overall amazing service and excellent support by a very professional team. The only criticism is the fees which it appears to me could be somehow lower.

It is a good and stable investment I have been with them since 2017. Their website provides an easy tool for investing Cask "Scotch" whiskies. Good and reliable customer support as well.
I am gradually investing with them for my child education and retirement :-)
Excellent service
very good service, thanks to Michelle for the support and she is a very kind girl.
He helped me a lot and I am very grateful for the service.
Very nice and helpful gentleman on the phone
The gentleman with the beautiful Italian accent who took my call was very helpful. He patiently stayed on the phone until I had done what it took to resolve my issue. He was very personable. It was a pleasure to speak with him.

I started investing in whiskey in the fourth quarter of 2020. Since then, I have had very good experiences with WhiskeyInvestDirect. The portal is well structured and easy to use. I hope that my investment will develop well over the years.
Leading whisky investment site
Convenient methods of investing with reasonable charges, solid whisky buy selection, good User interface, and reporting, very responsive and helpful Support Desk
Since I joined WhiskyInvest Direct…
Since I joined WhiskyInvest Direct about 8 months ago I’ve had excellent service from the Support Desk. This coupled with the ease with which the system embraces new clients and the simplicity of purchasing and selling whisky makes for an enriching (hopefully in more ways than one) and enjoyable experience. I would recommend Whisky Invest Direct to anyone interested in investing in barrelled whisky, and recommend those not yet convinced to the abundant information provided by the company.
Easy to deal with and transparent
Easy to deal with and transparent. Good range of product and plenty of information. No pressure to buy and take it at your own pace and affordability.
Whisky Invest Direct
Whisky Invest Direct - I can strongly recommend this investment platform. I haven’t been using WID for long, but setting up the service on my smart phone was easy and intuitive. With stellar help from their customer services - a real person i may add - the whole process went through without a hitch. A few days from opening an account, sending in funds, to purchasing my 1st batch of fine maturing whisky, all went smoothly like clockwork. What’s not to like.

A genuine and useful "alternative" investment in uncertain times.
WhiskyInvestDirect have asked me to "share my thoughts" about the service they provide (with NO incentive, I might add). I have used their website and been a customer for three years. The website is easy to use and always available. Whisky ("Scotch") is a useful "alternative" investment and consumption is forecast to continue to rise worldwide - prices increase, on average, five to ten percent annually - there was a very brief downward "blip" in the Spring when world stock markets crashed but the upward trend quickly resumed. An interest in whiskey is not essential - in summary, it is a steady investment in these uncertain times and WhiskyInvestDirect provide a decent and genuine way for the public to invest in Scotch while it matures in the distillery. If or when the time comes to sell, funds are credited back to one's bank account within one or two working days.
