Past auction results, not a valuation or a guide to future prices. Figures compiled 12 November 2026.

Independent bottlings make up most of the Glen Keith lots here; our study of the workhorse malts and independent bottlers looks at where that happens and whether those bottlings cost more. Before comparing a hammer price with a shop price, add the fees: buying whisky at auction vs retail works through them. Auction medians for many brands have fallen since their 2021 and 2022 peaks, as what 1.6 million auction lots show about whisky prices sets out.

Casks are sold in bond: the whisky stays in a bonded warehouse in Scotland, so no duty or VAT is paid unless it leaves. Storage and insurance cost extra: this seller includes the first year, then charges £100.00 a year per cask. Duty, VAT and bottling costs follow if you take the whisky out. A cask loses volume and strength as it ages.

Buying a cask is not a regulated investment. The FCA does not regulate whisky casks, so you would have no Financial Ombudsman or compensation scheme protection, and values can fall. Read the FCA's warning about unregulated investments.
