From paper delivery orders to Digital Deeds: what WDSC 2026 confirmed about cask ownership
A paper delivery order can be replicated a thousand times. A Digital Deed can not. When a cask filled in 2005 has, in many cases, changed hands more often than the people now holding it can prove, there’s a tension. That tension, between an industry built on paper and an industry now operating at the scale of one million privately owned casks in Scotland alone, was the conversation at Worldwide Distilled Spirits Conference 2026 last week. The 2026 theme, Excellence in Science and Innovation: Delivering Tomorrow's Spirits , pulled distillers, scientists, warehousekeepers and regulators into the Edinburgh ICC for four days of talks on the operational reality we’re facing today. We were there as exhibitors, sponsors, and invited to speak on stage on our topic, “From Paper to Blockchain: Rethinking Cask Ownership in the Spirits Industry”

New generation Scottish distillery tackles cask fraud with Digital Deeds
A conversation with Jackton Distillery. The young Scottish distillery behind Raer Whisky, scaling craft with digital traceability. In South Lanarkshire, just outside Glasgow, one young Scottish distillery is part of a new generation turning to technology to meet the challenges of cask fraud in whisky today. Jackton Distillery, home to the award-winning Raer Scotch Whisky, is a family-owned, independently-run distillery that’s been in production since 2020. It is building towards a genuine farm-to-glass model, growing its own barley, running 164-hour fermentations and earning awards for its RAER Whisky range as a result.

Proof 8 is coming to ACSA Sacramento
Here's what to expect. Last year, we delivered a webinar to ACSA members on digital transformation in distilling. The response to that was overwhelming and this year we’ve been invited to attend their annual conference in person and host a session on how digital tools are supporting efficiency, transparency and growth in craft spirits. Find us at booth 804 from April 17–18.
