Why Bourbon Barrels
Tangible, non-correlated: real inventory with physical custody and insurance options.
Time-driven appreciation: value increases predictably as spirit ages—no brand-building required.
Attractive exits: active resale to bourbon brands seeking 2+ year aged inputs for blending & bottling.
Global demand: super-premium bourbon growth and tightening wholesale access support pricing.
How It Works
1) Acquire Wholesale
Secure allocation at wholesale pricing through vetted brokerage with custodial oversight.
2) Title & Storage

Tangible Alternative
Diversify beyond equities and real estate with a physical, insurable asset whose value accrues with time.
Passive Ownership
No bottling, branding, or marketing obligations—just custody, aging, and timed exit.
Institutional Scale
Typical allocations from 1,500 to 45,000 barrels, with experienced operators and defined resale pathways.
FAQ
What drives returns?

In government-bonded Kentucky warehouses under custodial oversight; insurance options available.
What is the exit?
Resale to bourbon brands needing aged inputs for blending/bottling; broker often repurchases directly from investors.
Key risks?
Pricing/liquidity, counterparty, custody/insurance terms, regulatory changes, and natural evaporation ("angel's share"). Conduct full diligence.
