What's a Pulteney cask worth?
Rough value ranges for a typical Pulteney cask by age (Highland). Updated October 2026.
| Age | Bourbon cask | Sherry cask |
|---|---|---|
| 5 years (filled 2021) | £2,000 to £5,200 | £2,500 to £6,700 |
| 10 years (filled 2016) | £3,000 to £8,900 | £3,900 to £12,000 |
| 15 years (filled 2011) | £4,400 to £15,000 | £5,600 to £18,000 |

Each range is for a generic cask: a full 250-litre hogshead filled at 63.5%, in good condition, with the usual losses for its age. The low end is what to look to pay, the middle a fair estimate, and the high end expensive for a typical cask. Your cask's condition, paperwork, history and how full it is all change what it's worth.
