🥃 Using a survey of 200 high-net-worth individuals and investment advisers, KPMG tries to get a better understanding of whiskey as an investment class. Results of the survey indicate that whiskey is the most popular form of luxury assets with 27% of respondents indicating that they are planning to invest in whiskey within the next 3 years, versus art (26%), jewellery (20%), wine (15%) and classic cars (14%). Other forms of alternative assets, such as real estate, gold, commodities, and cryptocurrencies still remain more popular. 📚 Alternative investments are also the focus of the book 'Investeren in stijl' that I wrote together with Gertjan Verdickt.

Investing in whisky has gained popularity with a remarkable 582% surge in the value of rare whisky over the last decade, as reported by the Knight Frank Luxury Investment Index. The Covid lockdown saw a real surge in whisky buying, with consumers having more expendable income and using it to buy into alternative assets. Notably a bottle of 1926 Rare Macallan single malt fetched a staggering £2.1 million at auction in November 2023. Understanding why certain whiskies are valuable is crucial. Similar to investments in gold, fine wine, and art, supply and increasing demand plays a vital role.

The value of Scotch single malt whisky is driven by both age and structural scarcity. Only 12% of all Scotch whisky is bottled as single malt, with the rest used in blends. This rarity, coupled with high demand, makes Scotch single malt whisky a particularly appealing investment product. #ScotchWhiskyInvestments #SingleMalt #InvestmentStrategy #AlternativeInvestments #LuxuryInvestments
