Longspey By Mark Littler LTD
Created to meet the growing requirements of our clients, Longspey is the result of whisky investment expert Mark Littler joining forces with chartered financial planner Katy Littler to deliver a trusted avenue for long term whisky investment.
Longspey delivers bespoke advice at all levels, whether you are after a unicorn bottle for your collection or require services to build and maintain a long term whisky investment portfolio.
We work with both bottles and casks, and both new-make and vintage whisky to create balanced portfolios that deliver a legacy of returns over the long term.
William Longespée, 3rd Earl of Salisbury
Longspey is named for the 3rd Earl of Salisbury, William Longespée; a figure noted for his strategic expertise and ability to capitalise on opportunities with precision.
Longespée’s most famous victory was at the Battle of Damme in 1213, where he demonstrated exceptional tactical intelligence. Rather than relying solely on brute force, Longespée utilised strategic positioning and timing to secure a decisive victory.
Our ethos for whisky investment services is grounded in these approaches. By being methodical and patient we ensure sustainable growth and create robust long term portfolios to meet your individual needs.
