Investments made easy.

We get honest advice on new investments, never have I been or felt under pressure to make a purchase. The constant change in market conditions sometimes makes it confusing but with Hackstons we get regular emails and phone calls on updates covering all aspects of the market, taxes etc. We feel we have definitely made the right choice for our future and have a growing portfolio thanks to everyone involved at Hackstons.

Great honest customer service

The customer service I have received from Hackstons has been second to none! Samuel was extremely welcoming and engaging as well as being very knowledgeable about the products! Unlike some other sellers, I also felt Samuel and Hackstons as a whole were very honest, never trying to push a sale that didn’t suit myself. If you’re interested in buying whiskey I would highly recommend working with Hackstons; my personal experience has been great with them!

This was the first experience of buying whisky as an investment. Hackston’s staff are all very friendly and extremely knowledgeable and made the process of buying very easy. Time will tell if the investment does as well as expected but I was fully informed that investments are not a guarantee of future profits. I would recommend Hacksons to anyone interested in investing in the whisky market.

Excellent for Whiskey Investments

The Hackstons team is brilliant, very supportive and communicative business. They let you know about all the options before you put any money in. Keep me updated with any changes in the market, that could affect my investment.
