Independent Bottling and Cask Strategy with Alistair MacDonald

In this episode of Whisky Wealth Warrior, host Glen Palmer is joined by Alistair MacDonald, Founder of Barley Nectar and independent bottler behind Castle Bay, whose family has been in the whisky industry since the 1820s. Alistair shares candid insights into today’s cask market, the realities of independent bottling, and why clarity of purpose is essential before buying a whisky cask. The conversation also explores market corrections, regauging risks, long-term thinking, and how passion, not hype, should drive both collecting and investing in whisky.
