A informative and joyful experience. This was my first adventure so I must have asked some strange questions. I felt happy that Max talked me through the stages of purchasing with confidence

My New adventure, I decided to venture a new way to invest my money, met Max for a drink and a talk on how it all works, which was a very nice personal touch, and also received some miniature bottles from one of the distilleries I was investing my money in , all in all a 5 star experience from the start to completion of the purchase of my 4 casks

I had a very positive experience with VCL when discussing and making an investment. There was no hard-sell, jargon or other concerns. I was given all the information that i requested, and was given time to consider my options. Shane was positive, polite and professional throughout my conversations with him. After i decided to invest, the transaction was easy to complete, and i received full documentation detailing the transaction. I would happily recommend to others (and already have done).

We dealt with Ben. He was very professional as well as friendly. Everything has gone very smoothly and we’re now the proud owners of some casks of whisky.

As a nervous first time investor, I could not be more happy with the service I have received, they talked me through everything little and big, no matter how many times I asked them to re go over it they did, Shane my main point of call is always at the end of his phone for any enquiries or when i start worrying about things, he talks me through till he knows I am ok with everything, Lauren is also there with Emails for anything that needs sorting as well, they have both been so very helpful and made my experience a very easy, pleasant and stress free.

Informative and helpful service. George sent emails and called to go through everything. The accounts department were efficient in sending documents to confirm my purchase. I received some sample bottles of the Whiskey I bought to taste which is a nice touch.

Excellent investment information and advice from Dillon, with absolutely no sales pressure. Performance has been much better than I’d expected. I’d highly recommend VCL to anyone considering a whisky investment.

I had a very positive investment experience with VCL. My broker, CJ was very helpful, understood my goals and was very professional.

Webinar had answered lots of my questions but CJ took me through all my other queries, often preempting. He stuck to my price range rather than trying to push me higher which is refreshing these days.

First time whisky investor, came across VCL on an Instagram ad. After Initial conversations and after doing due-diligence my investments were dealt with by C.J who managed all of my expectations and discussed a tailored portfolio with myself! After investing I received a very nice sample set from the distilleries I had invested with followed up by a check in call to answer anymore questions by C.J. Great service. No problems. Very happy.

I was looking to further diversify my portfolio, when I came across VCL Vintners on a Google search for whiskey investing. I had some experience in fine wine investing, so I thought I'd give it a try. Dillon guided me from beginning to end in the process. It was very easy. I will see how things go over the next five years, but I'm very confident my investment will do well.

Came across VCL in The Times about 6 months before retiring from Financial Services. I was interested in diversifying my investments and whiskey offered an exciting alternative, VCL have provided this. From my initial enquiry until completing the purchase the process has been faultless, and I have since recommended them to my son.

VCL Vintners is dedicated to appreciating whisky investment portfolios and their brokers are patient in walking new investors through the steps in acquiring a diversified portfolio. Shane was great in service, expertise and communications. He answered all my questions diligently until I understood all aspects of the process.

I was initially dubious at the possible rates of investment quoted by VCL (for cask whisky), but after much research I was able to confirm the reality of their offer. I was provided with sufficient information, both from VCL and through links to outside sources, and at no time did I feel pressurised, or hounded to make a decision on investment. Once I had made the decision to invest, I received follow-up emails and documentation within a few hours. I had 7 days to proceed with the investment, and even after that I had a further 14 days cooldown period. Documents were signed via a secure document service, and I was able to check banking details, etc. prior to proceeding. It was a surprise to receive a beautiful on-boarding gift (samples from one of the distilleries I invested in), through the post (with hard copies of my investment certification) within four or five days. I'm now the proud owner of 3 casks of whisky, and I look forward to seeing how they develop over the next 5-10 years. Considering the inflation rate is about 5% more than any investment rate I can get in a bank, this is the only way I can see of not allowing my hard-earned money to shrink in the current economic climate.
