About Hackstons
We are luxury asset managers that have personal experience in a multifarious range of collectibles, luxuries acquisition and alternative investment options.
Each member of our staff has their own specialization, whether that is cask whisky, luxury timepieces, gold coins and many more.
However, most distilleries won’t open an account for you, most prestige watch dealerships have long waiting lists and luxury auctions can be prohibitively expensive. By drawing upon our extensive and exclusive network of contacts we have helped our clients to attain the tangible items for pleasure, profit or both!
Thanks Chris and the team; the client focused educational pieces are much appreciated. There seems to be a lot of confusion, jargon and general nonsense concerning ownership and this has really helped clarify what is a rather simple process! Cheers guys!
Around 25 years ago I bought a smaller cast. When taken out of the bonded storage and went to bottling and when they checked it some 6 weeks later two thirds had gone. Greedy angels. As there was a delay between delivery and checking the bonded storage said it was fine when it left them. The photos showed a dried up mark from the bung so appears to have leaked in storage.
One very satisfied customer! Clearly I should join him. The meeting confirmed the point I made verbally that normal gatherings are not the place to drink seriously mature whisky. This should be with good friends in front of a good log fire in comfortable chairs, preferably with a hoolie blowing outside. I have experienced most of this but nothing more "serious" than a 34 year Hart Brothers or a cask-strength un-aged Mortlach.
This reminded me of the movie Kingsmen. States Men and their casks. Scots are still the OG’s. Johnnie Walker Whiskey is a great European taste, and JD the American. All these fancy once’s I’d probably just invest in. 🤔
Whiskeys aren’t all for old men in mahogany chairs and cigars. It’s more accessible now, and a great experience. I notice Johnnie walker in most videos 🤔 should I be looking at shares in this company?
