How it works
Three steps, plainly explained
Ageing
The rum matures in the cask; tropical climates age it faster than Scotland.
Exit
Sale to collectors, bottlers or enthusiasts — or bottling for yourself.
What you actually own
A physical cask of rum, identified and stored in your name.
Provided by a specialised partner, with whom the contract is concluded directly. AvantGarde introduces you and accompanies you; it does not hold client funds.
Why no return figures here
Partner projections are estimates, not promises. You receive them with all costs and risks, in writing, after the partner has assessed your situation — never as a headline.
Risks you should know
Read this before the opportunity
A younger and less transparent secondary market than whisky.
Higher evaporation in tropical warehouses.
Storage and insurance costs.
Prices depend on demand for premium rum, which can change.
It may fit if…
- ✓You want a small, tangible satellite allocation
- ✓You can wait five to ten years
It is not for you if…
- ✕You need liquidity
- ✕You want a transparent, quoted price
