The bringts-Spirits auction creates a community that brings joy to lovers of fine spirits and offers a platform to offer rare and special spirits. In the spirit of "Against the seriousness of animals", the auction remains anonymous and uncomplicated.
Important: bringts.ch is not a platform for people who want to offer rare or “hype” spirits at completely inflated prices. Such offers are consistently rejected.

- Rare spirits, preferably from the categories: whisky, rum, cognac, armagnac and gin.
What cannot be offered?
- Standard spirits in the lower price segment, unless they are no longer available on the market.
- Bottle divisions, already opened bottles, home-distilled or home-made liqueurs.
- Products with more than 80% alcohol by volume.
