ABOUT THE FOUNDER

Whisky By Time has built an exclusive network within the niche market of rare whisky collecting, becoming proficient in the purchase, supply, and sale of bonded Whisky Casks for trade and individual clientele.

To begin, we offer a diverse selection of Casks. This is critical for collecting, as it is necessary to pick not just well-known distilleries, but also those that supply some of the world’s largest whisky mix brands, such as ‘Johnnie Walker’ and Grants’.
 
Second, for single malts, the amount of whisky produced is critical. The more limited the original supply, the more rapidly the whisky’s value will climb when bottles are consumed globally and availability becomes more constrained.

Oliver O’Donovan, the founder of Whisky By Time, has extensive experience in Sales, Securities, Derivatives, and Luxury Assets Portfolio Management. Oliver’s success is rooted in his ethos and character. He’s positive and passionate in all he engages. He loves people; sharing a common vision and aim. He values honesty and conscientiousness; cherishes connection and variance.

Photography and fine art were his first love. Then came the kick and rush of the London’s City Stock Exchange. University done, Oliver dived into melee of LSE and never looked back. Zealous and gifted with high-energy, Oliver thrived in the high-pressure tumult. An arena apt for the youth who’d already spent a year being pummelled and bruised on a Rugby team World Tour. In his new field, swiftly, wit and skills were honed and  toned. Two years became ten, then twenty.

His years of expertise in Sales, brokerage, and trading have equipped him with the skills necessary to manage high-net-worth clients and network with C-suite executives from a variety of industries. Oliver has established a solid reputation. Throughout the years, he has collaborated with a variety of merchants, traders, brokers and distilleries to source and acquire stocks of superb, rare, and highly coveted whisky.

Word of his high performance and prowess in serving his clients came to the fore. Top firms headhunted the young star. Magazines came calling. In 2021 he was featured in the top four UK Financial Newsreels. But the prize of his life, the bell that rings loudest in his heart is not the LSE clarion chime. His family, his wife, his children — they are the truest treasures — the fount of his joy and prodigious energies.

How it works.

01.

We source whisky from the very best distilleries in Scotland and Ireland, which we purchase at discounted rates (attractive to the distillery as they can cover their upfront costs).

02.

These rates attract investors, who purchase casks outright. The casks are then stored in a secure, government-bonded warehouse and fully insured.

03.

Sit back and wait, as your casks increase in value – we recommend at least 5 to 7 years. The insurance is updated yearly in accordance with the increased value.

When you’re ready to exit, various exit strategies are available, including bottling under your own label or selling on to a whisky brand.
