WHY INVEST IN A DISTINCT CASK?

Owning a cask of rum is one of the most accessible ways to start investing in premium spirits and unlike traditional assets, any appreciation gains are exempt from CGT under current UK law. As the whisky market becomes increasingly saturated, rum is still in its early growth phase offering greater long-term potential. By partnering with Distinct, your cask will age in our WWII vaults offering unrivaled maturation conditions and you will work with a trusted, expert team, giving you confidence in your investment.

  • GLOBAL PREMIUM RUM GROWTH

    Premium aged rum is one of the fastest-growing categories in spirits investment. Unlike Whisky, which is starting to slow down, rum represents an opportunity to capitalise on the early investment stage.

  • TAX EFFICIENT & MINIMAL RISK

    Due to HMRC classification, any appreciations made on casks are exempt form Capital Gains Tax. We also offer a buyback guarantee after 5 yrs for the original price, ensuring there is no risk to your investment.

  • OPTIMUM MATURATION

    All our casks are stored in our unique underground vaults. Not only are they a historic relic, but they provide the perfect conditions for careful maturation such as consistent temperature, humidity and no UV exposure.

  • AWARD WINNING LIQUIDS

    Our British Rums have a 100% success rate, winning multiple medals in 2024 in highly prestigious International Spirits Competitions.

  • MATURATION EXPERTISE

    Our Cask Director, Ian, has over 10 years of expertise developing aging programmes and techniques all over the world. Ian will personally oversee your cask maturation providing you updates and recommendations along the way.

  • SUSTAINABLE CRAFTSMANSHIP

    Our fermented by-product is upcycled into fertiliser so with every cask we fill, we directly improve the environment
