Story

Founded in 1830 by William, a Breton who arrived on Guernsey's commercial scene. During WWII the company famously hid fine wines (Latour, Margaux, Mouton Rothschild) from the Nazi occupiers. Rebranded from Bucktrouts to Liberation Quality Drinks in September 2020 as part of Liberation Group's company restructure.

Bucktrout & Co. Ltd. is a Guernsey wine and spirit merchant founded in 1830, now trading as Liberation Quality Drinks under The Liberation Group. It operates wholesale drinks distribution and two retail shops in St Peter Port — at Admiral Park and Albion House Quay — with online ordering available. Products include wine, champagne, spirits, beer, cider, and soft drinks. —
