Yeah as others have said it's very much a thing (most distilleries do it) .It used to be a very cost effective way to buy whisky but tax and the fact that scotch has never been more in demand means you're not going to get the best return for your money but if you love whisky I can't think of a better way to spend your money.
Did not know this was a thing, and will probably never get to try/buy one, but getting bottles of bourbon from a barrel you’ve brought excites me.
Is this done with scotch/Irish whisky?
Would it be possible for a group to purchase a single barrel?
