THE PROCESS OF PURCHASE A Cask Share

On this page, we have described the process for buying cask shares at Fadandel.dk, as well as what the different things mean.

We take a cask sample* home from all our casks, which we sell per cask for approx. every year. When we approach the bottling of the individual cask, we take a small sample home approx. 2-3 months before the planned bottling. The last sample is taken home, so we are sure that the whisky or rum has the aroma/taste that we want.

On the individual cask share certificate, it is indicated when we expect the cask to be bottled. This is an assessment we take when we start selling the cask shares in the cask. Should it turn out that the cask is ready for bottling sooner, we will bottle the cask when it is ready for it. Conversely, it turns out that the cask is not ready for bottling as first assumed, we will postpone the bottling. In both cases, shareholders who have bought a share in the cask will be notified of this. On our webshop, this information is also updated on the single cask share.

We have made the process for purchasing cask share as simple as possible, but if you have any questions about it, you are very welcome to contact us by phone (+45 614 669 00) or email (info@fadandel.dk).

You can see the status of the active casks in which we currently sell cask shares here. As well as the status of the casks where the cask shares may be sold out in.

*The cask samples, which are typically 70cl, are partly used to ensure the quality of the alcohol. But also so that customers can buy a sample (typically 3cl) so they can follow the course as well. In addition, the cask samples are used for our cask sample tastings, where we typically taste 8 different cask samples.

Purchase of cask share

On the page with cask shares you will find the list of casks in which we are currently selling cask shares.

When you have found the cask share(s) you want to buy, simply put it/them in the shopping basket by clicking ” Add to cart” and pay for the purchase.

When the order has been completed, you will receive an email with the order confirmation. Within one working day, you will receive a new email with the purchase invoice and the actual certificate for your cask share(s) – if it is a gift, you can print out the certificate and give it to the recipient.

When you buy a cask share in one of our casks, you only pay for your cask share of the whisky or rum – not the actual bottling, shipping, taxes, etc. That part is charged in what we call “import fee” after the cask have been bottled and are stated on each cask share “product” on the webshop.

Cask shares as gift

If you wish to buy the barrel share as a gift, please enter the following information on the recipient of the barrel share in the comments field during the ordering process:

  • Name
  • Address
  • Country
  • Email address
  • Mobile number

Then we (fadandel.dk) will make sure to fill in the certificate/share certificate with this information and send the certificate together with your invoice, so that you can print it out and give the cask share as a gift.

Bottling

All our casks are bottled in standard 70cl round bottles, unless otherwise stated on the individual cask shares. The actual bottling is always at cask strength – we do not water down the whisky/rum or color it either.

All our bottlings have Fadandel.dk’s label affixed, and the casks bottled in Skotland have a label affixed in Scotland. If you are a club who wants your own label on the bottles, this must be agreed in connection with the purchase of the cask share(s).

All our casks are bottled in standard 70cl round bottles, unless otherwise stated on the individual casks. The bottling itself is always at cask strength – we do not water down the whisky/rum or color it either.

Import fee

When the individual cask is ready for bottling, we order bottling at the warehouse where the cask is located. After the cask is bottled, and we know the number of bottles as well as the “% vol.” on bottling, we get labels printed. When the labels have been attached to the bottles and the bottles are on their way home to our warehouse in Denmark, the cooperative members will be sent a link to pay for the “import fee”. The ” import fee ” is to cover the costs of bottling itself, labels, shipping to Denmark, taxes to the Danish state (including alcohol tax), CUSTOMS and VAT.

When we do not charge this part of the payment before/together with the cask share itself, it is due to, among other things, that it is difficult to estimate in advance how many “% vol.” there in the whisky/rum and not least new taxes and CUSTOMS.

Bottles arrive at our warehouse

After the cask has been bottled and the bottles have arrived at our warehouse in Denmark, the cooperative members will be contacted per email, with information for collecting the cooperative bottles. If the shareholder wishes to have their cask share bottles forwarded, this can be done by choosing the desired shipping option when the collection of the cask share is paid at the shop.

Shareholders who have not paid for their “import fee” within 2 months from when we have sent the first charge for the ” import fee “, risk that their cask share bottles will be lost and sold in another way in our store. This is because we cannot have a large number of bottles in our warehouse for a long time. Should there be a need to store the bottles for a longer period, an individual agreement can be made to this effect with us. Shareholders who lose their cask share bottles in this way can only claim the actual purchase price for the cask share at the time of purchase in question.
