    I really appreciate not only your analysis but especially the fact that you are willing to at least name your trusted sources instead of leaving things completely vague for political expediency. Attaching your opinion to specifics in that way and putting ones reputation behind those opinions goes a long way towards demonstrating a commitment to your community and the values we often hear voiced but rarely see backed up. It’s perhaps not a “big deal” but to me it adds trust and value to what you say, so thank you.

  • @Raymaster7482
    @Raymaster7482 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Good video! I know that the calculation for the RLA is just an estimation... but since the total amount of angel's share is getting lower after each year (because 2% from 500l in year 1 is more than 2% from 490l in year 2 ect...) you could use another equation.
    If we take a cask with 500l OLA, 2% AS & 10 years of maturation we can calculate it like this: 500*(1-0,02)^10 ≈ 408,5 liters.
    Edit: hmmm I somehow don't get how you're calculating the bulk liters 🤔

    • @TheWhiskyBaron
      @TheWhiskyBaron  ปีที่แล้ว

      you're absolutely right - I felt that compounding loss calculations may have gone a bit over some heads though. but those with a math brain will know this is the most accurate calculation.
      so bulk litres are essentially the LPA divided by alcohol strength. 60% alcohol is 0.6, 55% is 0.55 and so on - let me know what's missing from this explanation so I can make sure everything is clear

    A fantastic and really informative video, especially all the calculations. I had to work all this out myself!!! It would have made my life a lot easier when, as a recognised kosher whisky "expert", I was approached to assist in selecting casks for a Kosher Independent bottling for a Kosher spirits dealer in Israel a few years ago.

    Thank you for making all of these very informative videos. They genuinely help a lot. One question if I may, can you buy and own/trade casks as a foreign investor (EU citizen) or do you have to be a British citizen. Thanks!

    • @TheWhiskyBaron
      @TheWhiskyBaron  ปีที่แล้ว +1

      great question Colin! It's actually easier to take ownership of a cask as an international trader as you don't need a license yourself, you simply need to find a duty representative (a licensed individual/company in the UK) to act as your agent. This means you can have direct access/communication with warehouses without the hassle of setting up companies/licenses yourself.
      Hope that answers your question!

      glad it's proving useful! Whilst you could assume a similar pricing structure applies to rum, I won't pretend that I'm well versed in values of certain distilleries/liquids. From my limited experience rum generally is priced lower than whisky, however, it's also harder to find named brands

    Hi - why would you calculate the cost of a 23 yo cask using OLA when there is no longer 150l in there? sorry for such a basic question

    • @TheWhiskyBaron
      @TheWhiskyBaron  8 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      Great question Tan. You’re right - usually casks will be sold on an RLA basis once they hit 10/12 years old. However, in this instance we purchased a bulk parcel on an OLA basis to secure trade pricing. This price factors in anticipated losses so as we shouldn’t end up paying over the odds once all casks are regauged. Hope this answers your question
