As usual your staff nailed it. Great packaging, correct bottles shipped, etc. I wish sometimes the selection would be a bit broader but that's probably above your paygrade (and mine). Except for that... See more

Fast shipping to the US and my whiskey arrived without any problem. However, shipping cost is too high.

Hello Vibol,

Thanks for the feedback. We're really glad your whiskey made it to the US safely and quickly. We totally understand that international shipping can be pricey and we are always looking for ways to keep those rates as reasonable as possible. Enjoy the bottle!

Great service

I’m a new customer and I must say I had a great experience with the whiskey world.
My order was processed and dispatched on the day of purchase and turned up the next day at my home (I selected standard shipping!)

The item came wonderfully packed and super secure, way more than I expected. I ordered quite a pricey bottle and the packaging exceeded expectations.

I will definitely look to shop with the whiskey world for future purchases of wine and spirits.
Thank you

Nothing to fear. Great experience

I was skeptical of buying liquor online, let alone from a different country. Whiskey World had the best price on what I was looking for even after international delivery. The bottle and original box was packaged nicely and arrived quickly in perfect condition. Looking forward to doing business with them again.
