At Sanctory, we are dedicated to our purpose of providing 'Finest Drinks for Finest People' We maintain a rigorous commitment to the quality and authenticity of the products we offer. Each product undergoes an extensive selection process, including detailed discussions with distillers/winemakers, a thorough understanding of the product's lifecycle, and stringent quality assurance. Due to these high standards, we agree with our distilling partners that only limited production can be achieved. As a result, our products are produced in small batches, often crafted by hand devoid of regular industrial production techniques. Given the constraints of our limited supply and the detailed crafting process, we can only accommodate a limited number of customers. However, this ensures that each of our members receives the highest quality bottle, crafted with superior production practices.
At Sanctory, a majority of the drinks you find are limited editions, an expression of the distillers and winemakers in presenting the true craft of theirs that has evolved with decades of culture and tradition. Our listed spirits and beverages on Sanctory will never have artificial colours, ingredients, or additives. Most spirits are hand-filled and never contact plastic during their lifecycle. All our wines are biodynamic, carefully curated from the finest winemakers who share our vision. Sanctory acts as a platform for drink makers to express their finesse and craftsmanship, producing high-quality spirits without the constraints of market dynamics such as cost and volume resulting with the finest drinks that they can produce listed with us.
At Sanctory, our members have access to a range of products, from fine whiskeys and wines of various ages to coveted 50-year-olds from the finest distilleries and vineyards. Surprisingly, you will find a much superior product with the same age expression at a similar high street cost on Sanctory. Additionally, our premium aged whiskeys are often available at lower prices than in regular markets. Exploiting our distilling partners by marking up the products is against our ethos of creating an interaction space for the drink makers and connoisseurs. Our margins are very transparent and fair for both the manufacturers and our members, and with the lack of intermediaries such as wholesalers, stockists, and distributors, the costs remain accessible to our members.
Sanctory does not sell its drinks on any other platform or retailing websites. All our products are delivered exclusively to our members through our website, ensuring pristine packaging and including special product complements from time to time that reflect our commitment to quality.
At Sanctory, we collaborate with acclaimed distillers and wineries renowned for their decades of expertise, craftsmanship, and reputation for producing high-quality spirits. While our selection features many renowned brands, we also list new entrants in the market who produce products that align with our values, share our passion and commitment to delivering the finest products with no compromise. Our focus remains on offering and listing the highest quality products rather than an exhaustive array of brands. Additionally, we provide a concierge service to our members to help procure specific bottles from any distiller of their choice, ensuring that even the most particular preferences are met.
Beer presents unique complexities for us due to the majority of brewers utilizing plastic or polyethylene-based equipment in their manufacturing processes. On average, a glass of beer, whether from a bottle, can, or tap by any major brand may contain upwards of 50,000 microplastic particles. When consumed with alcohol, these microplastics have been found to have an incremental effect on health over time, as supported by extensive research. At Sanctory, we uphold stringent standards by exclusively offering beers that avoid contact with plastic throughout their production process. While this limits the number of available products, rest assured that those listed are meticulously curated to ensure the highest quality and purity for our members.
At Sanctory, we also offer spring water and sparkling water. We maintain stringent criteria for selecting companies to ensure that all products meet our high standards. These waters are specially bottled and packaged for Sanctory members, guaranteeing quality and exclusivity. We encourage our members to subscribe to these products, as it seamlessly integrates into their daily consumption and reduces the likelihood of switching to inferior alternatives. Our concierge service further assists members in selecting the right spring water tailored to their specific mineral composition preferences and health needs.
