DAV VERIFIED®

A cask is DAV VERIFIED® when it has been matched to a bonded warehouse record and cryptographically signed by both the regulated bonded warehouse legal entity and CannyCask.

This confirms the cask exists, matches the regulated bonded warehouse record and that both parties independently verified the same cask record.

Only DAV VERIFIED® casks can be listed and purchased on CannyCask.

Ownership Clarity

Legal title to each cask is recorded in the regulated bonded warehouse register. Ownership transfer only completes once confirmed and acknowledged by the regulated bonded warehouse.

Customers hold legal title through their dedicated bonded warehouse account, while CannyCask maintains the corresponding verified digital ownership record.

CannyCask facilitates the transaction, maintains verification records and aligns digital ownership records to the regulated bonded warehouse record. CannyCask does not hold custody and does not override regulated bonded warehouse ownership records.

Frequently Ask Questions

DAV VERIFIED® is CannyCask's patent-pending independent verification process. CannyCask signs one side of a cask verification request and the regulated bonded warehouse signs the other. Together they create an independently verifiable custody, ownership and provenance record aligned to the regulated bonded warehouse record. The signatures are cryptographically bound together, creating a tamper-evident verification record that cannot be modified without breaking the cryptographic verification.
