THE ESTABLISHED WHISKY
INVESTMENT SPECIALIST

Headquartered in the Central District of Hong Kong and with long-established relationships with our distillery partners in Scotland, Premier Whisky are one of the world’s top production specialists and founders of modern-day whisky investment in Asia.

On May 20th 2022, at Bonhams whisky auction in Hong Kong, our latest production, the stunning Gordon & MacPhail 72-year-old went on to sell for a staggering HK$937,000 per bottle, that’s the equivalent to GBP 99,000.

This figure smashed its previous world record price and represents a  verified increase of over 100% at auction in the past year.  Premier Whisky clients who invested  in 2021, pre production, have done even better and seen the value of their assets almost quadruple at auction.


WHY INVEST IN WHISKY?

Single malt whisky is a unique collectable, widely regarded as one of the best performing asset classes globally. Over the past decade, the value of rare whisky sold at auction has risen by a staggering 478%. 

If you are looking to enter the market with a company at the forefront of the industry, a proven performer, crowned with three world records in 2021 and  2022.

RECORD BREAKING
PERFORMANCE

On May 20th 2022,  Premier Whisky’s latest production – the Gordon & MacPhail 72 Year Old – Glen Grant 1948  headlined the Bonhams Whisky Auction in Hong Kong with a specially commissioned artwork from the SCMP’s Harry Harrison, together with a unique NFT… Bonhams first ever for whisky!

The sale was so successful that it once again smashed the world record price for the most expensive Glen Grant whisky ever sold, and featured in the press globally including – The South China Morning Post, Asia Tatler, CNBC, and The Washington Post.

Clients who purchased throughout the production process, have first-hand witnessed us break the World Record twice, Win “Scottish Single Malt Whisky of the Year”, “Best Cask in the World” (2022 Whisky Bible), and have applauded the price of their asset rise above our proposed forecasts and beyond.

OUR MANAGING DIRECTOR BOB MCNAB WITH CNBC

Bob McNab, a Scot living in Hong Kong for over 30 years, has been a longtime advocate of rare whisky collection, a regular advisor to mainstream media, and one of Scotland’s most passionate leaders representing whisky throughout Asia.

“I was kindly invited by CNBC Asia to appear on the business segment Street Signs and explain the startling success of rare whisky as an investment, and in particular, why Premier Whisky with its own unique pioneering model is by far the best option on the market for serious investors.”

The pioneers of investing in whisky "en primeur"

We invite you to invest in the most acclaimed rare single malt whisky – pre-release – with Premier Whisky Private, and you’ll secure your rare asset 30% below market value.

DUE DILIGENCE

As is the case with all significant purchases, rare whisky is an asset which requires a buyer to conduct in-depth due diligence and research before buying. 

Premier Whisky Limited recommends that due diligence be carried out by each client individually. We believe quality, aged whisky from a reputable source is the only way to acquire long-term solid returns and advise you to do your own research before entering the market. 

At all times Premier Whisky Limited will act with good faith and only deal with those who contact us directly. We do not cold call, nor do we share your private data with third parties of any form.

Invest with confidence – with Premier Whisky!

In a shift of direction, Michael set up Cottingham & Co. in 1992, and began importing alcoholic beverages into Taiwan.

In Taiwan, the focus on importing and marketing international beverage brands continues with Cottingham Ltd. Cottingham handles Tomatin Single Malt Scotch, Antiquary, Lismore and Big T. Cottingham also handles the Douglas Laing range of Single Malt Scotches. We are also sole agents for the Brown-Forman range (Jack Daniels, Woodford Reserve, Early Times, Gentleman Jack, Herradura, El Jimador, Finlandia, Chambord, and Sothern Comfort).

The Cottingham Group now represents and provides services to international alcohol beverage brands throughout Greater China, including China itself, Hong Kong, Macau and Taiwan.

In October 2012 Michael was honoured to be inducted into the “Keepers of the Quaich” for services to Scotch Whisky.
