Know what your stock costs. Know what it's worth.

Financial intelligence built into every production and maturation decision

Vault connects the two things most finance and operations teams track separately: what it costs to make your spirit, and what it’s worth as it matures.

Dynamic valuation profiles give you a structured view of your stock’s value by age, make, and market. Updated as your spirit and casks move through production and maturation, Vault shows you what your inventory is worth at every stage, and what that means for your business.

What is Vapour Vault?
Why Vault Exists

Vapour Vault is your financial intelligence layer. It tracks what it costs to produce your spirit at batch and cask level, and monitors what that stock is worth as it matures, using dynamic valuation profiles built around age, make, customer type, and market channel.

Vault sits inside the Vapour platform, reading directly from the same operational data your production and maturation teams already capture. Cost and value data flows straight into your financial reporting systems, with no manual re-entry and no separate tool to manage.

Most distilleries track production costs in one place and stock valuations in another. The two figures rarely talk to each other in real time, which means inventory decisions get made on an incomplete picture. By the time finance has the numbers, operations has already moved on.

Vault changes that by connecting cost and value data into a single view, updated as your spirit moves through production and maturation. That requires:

  • Real-time cost-to-produce tracking at batch and cask level, feeding directly into financial reporting
  • Dynamic valuation profiles that update as stock ages, moves, and changes hands
  • ERP integration so cost and value data arrives where finance needs it, without manual transfers

That’s where Vapour Vault comes in.

Frequently Asked Questions

Vault is built for finance and operations teams who need accurate, real-time cost and valuation data without managing it across multiple systems. Here are the questions we hear most.

Cost tracking captures what it costs to produce your spirit: materials, labour, energy, and overheads at batch and cask level. Valuation tracks what that stock is worth as it matures, by age, make, customer type, and market channel. Vault runs both simultaneously, so you always have the full financial picture in one place.

No. Vault integrates with your existing ERP, whether that’s SAP, IFS, or another system, and feeds cost and value data directly into it. You keep the reporting infrastructure you already have; Vault just makes sure the data arriving in it is accurate, live, and doesn’t require manual re-entry.

Vault reads directly from the operational data captured across your Vapour modules. As your spirit moves through production and maturation, cost and value data updates automatically. There is no separate data entry required and no manual export process.

Yes. Vault supports dynamic valuation profiles by age, make, and customer type, with separate views for trade, retail, and direct-to-consumer channels. You can model the value of your inventory against different routes to market and see which allocations make the most commercial sense.

Yes. Vault’s API integration unifies third-party warehouse stock positions alongside your own, so your cost and valuation view is complete regardless of where your casks are held. External stock feeds into the same dashboard as your primary site.

Vault gives you a live, accurate view of what each cask costs to make and what it’s currently worth, by age and market channel. That means pricing decisions are grounded in real data rather than estimates. For brokers and finance teams, it also supports clear client conversations with cost and value figures that are always up to date.

Vault is built for any distillery that wants financial visibility over its maturing inventory. Smaller operations often benefit most from it, because they typically have the least resource for manual cost tracking and the most to gain from knowing the real value of their stock at any given point.

Vault is part of the Vapour strategic intelligence layer, alongside Studio and Insights. It reads from the same operational data as your production and maturation modules, so there is no separate integration to manage. As Studio models the financial impact of blend and allocation decisions, it draws directly from Vault’s cost and valuation data to keep the figures accurate.
