As I am new to whisky investment, I carried out my own research prior to contacting VCL Vintners. I spoke to Ben who was very knowledgeable about the product & investment opportunity. I wanted to buy whisky purely as a good investment. The no fee until eventual sale was a very positive indicator to me that VCL will work hard to fulfil their projections especially when it's 10% of profit, not the invested amount. Also I was reassured that I hold title to the whisky casks,( for which title documents were sent very promptly after purchase), allaying my fears should VCL cease trading. As I was made aware of which distillery my investment would be placed, I was able to check directly on the distillers own website that the investment projections were/are reasonable. A very positive experience and I look forward to seeing if the industry continues to provide very good returns. VCL (Ben) has been professional throughout and I would not hesitate to recommend VCL Vintners.
