Excellent Service
January 1, 2023

The bourbon was a gift, so I cannot attest to the quality of the product, but my interaction with Cask Cartel was excellent: the website was easy to navigate, the shipping prediction was accurate (even in the busy holiday season) and the packaging was safe and secure. I would absolutely recommend Cask Cartel to anyone looking at an internet purchase of high-end liquor. Thanks for everything!

Excellent service
March 1, 2023

I purchased via Cask Cartel from Australia with a delivery to the USA. Just after ordering I found out the recipient would actually be away and not available to sign for receipt. I reached out to Cask Cartel as soon as I found out and they were able to arrange delivery to an alternate address where we could ensure a sign for receipt was received. Thanks so much for your assistance with this. Really appreciate it.

Poor quality
January 31, 2023

Not happy with delivered product. I am a collector and you sent a bottle where the label was crooked and full of bubbles. Will not place another order with you, unless you send a return label and exchange it. Would like to order many other products but won't if this is the quality delivered

Always get a shipping label same day the order was placed. Always takes a week or more to actually be delivered to the shipping service, usually under a different tracking number. But, the bourbons I want is always available so I keep using Cask Cartel despite the lengthy lead time to receive the bottles.

Very disappointing
February 16, 2023

After I placed my order, I was promised the date and they never came through on that date but prior to that I was trying to track it and I could not get through in any way, shape or form there any help from your people it was very stressful. This was a gift for a very close person to me and you guys ruined it.

Nice Idea - overpriced
November 11, 2022

My order was fulfilled and it took longer than expected to receive it. It was packaged well and arrived undamaged. Being a unique idea, it was my fault I didn't research. Other sites are selling the same item for less than half the cost. Expensive mistake on my part.

I placed and order back in October. It's been over a month and it still hasn't shipped yet. Even though their site says if orders don't ship by 30 days you get your money back, they just claim its being shipped. I got the notification that a shipping label was created and when it still stayed on that status for a week, they told me it was picked up by ups and not their fault it hadn't been scanned yet. So I had to reach out to ups who told me No this packed is still with the shipper and never was picked up. Now I'm back to being told the order isn't even fulfilled. So now I'm out my money and no one is willing to help me.

They Fought the Law and the Law Won
March 30, 2022
Updated review

On the day I was due a refund, CC tried to print out a label for 1 of 3 bottles despite my demands for a refund.

In the following week or two, they attempted to ship 2 of the 3 bottles to my gift recipient's address despite my repeated demands that they STOP trying to ship after their 30 day grace period expired.

My family at the delivery address were instructed to NOT sign for any bottles, and CC seemed to be in violation of their own shipping policies (adults must be present to sign for alcohol, ID must be shown). One bottle was supposedly delivered and my family member's signature was forged, the other delivery apparently was left just sitting out near the door somewhere.

In the end, Cask Cartel's shady business practices and illegal shipping processes caused them to lose the dispute I began with my credit card company.

Absolutely the WORST Online Company.

Previous review

I made the mistake of placing a large order with CaskCartel about 10 days before Christmas. Thought it'd be okay because during the ordering process they were giving feedback of "Your order should ship in 3-5 days". I bought the extra protection, and then hit the buy button.

Christmas came, and their customer support told me to relax and chill. New Years came, and I requested a refund. That's when they referred me to their Cancellation\ Refund Policy and told me "No Can Do". You have to wait 30 days.

Today I received an email 19 days after my last order to tell me their distributor didn't receive their stock in time. They then told me to buy elsewhere for $45 more, or continue to wait until it eventually shows up, or to request they provide me some store credit.

Uh... No thanks. My email exchange with this company is included in pictures.

I ordered an item on 1/6/22 and one 1/18/22 I had not received the order, so I reached out to their customer service. I got an answer a day later telling me that a "UPS shipping label had been created". Sadly, by 1/25/22, the label was the only thing that had been created and my order was still in limbo. I reached out again to customer service and was told my order would be shipped in 1 to 2 days, but was also sent the fine print on their shipping that says they can deliver an order within 30 days of purchase and still be in good standing? As of today, 1/29/22 the same UPS label has not been shipped and yes 23 being prioritized on 2 occasions. Hopefully I will get my order by 2/6/22, (30 days) or my refund. I will keep you posted! Obviously, I DO NOT recommend this company.

Amazing product, arrived safe and secure
December 12, 2022

I was so surprised to see how well the bottles were packaged. I have not seen that sort of care. It was amazing, especially considering how challenging the beautiful bottle was with the delicate gargoyle on top.

Vodka from UK
September 23, 2022

I needed an expensive bottle of Vodka (non-Russian) for a 50th birthday to be delivered within 3 days. I was so disappointed when I called to check on my order and found out that it was shipping from another country. I had read through the shipping and info very carefully before I purchased as I did need a quick turn around. They said it would be several more weeks due to customs. I was happy to report that it only took 2 weeks instead of 3 weeks total but was still disappointed that it was not communicated during the purchasing process. The recipient was very happy to receive the actual Vodka but I cannot say how it tasted.

Timely
February 8, 2024

I placed an order as a gift before the Christmas Holiday, the order took over 2 weeks to get delivered. I placed a second order after the holidays, Just to see if it would arrive any faster. The second order again took over 2 weeks to arrive. Nice shopping, good selection, but better hope the A prime company doesn't decide it wants the business, and steal it away just because of faster response times.

When someone goes out of their way to leave a review, usually it's not positive. In this case, I am posting as a warning. I purchased a whisky "advent calendar" on November 21st and it didn't ship until December 7th, and won't deliver until December 12th if no delays. I paid $58 for shipping, so it's not a disgruntled review after getting something for free, I paid full price. When someone pays a significant amount for shipping and you don't fulfill the order for 2+ weeks, that is very poor.

I contacted customer service who acknowledged long fulfillment times, but didn't seem concerned there was no communication about it. They offered me a small coupon for my next large purchase. I will not be purchasing from them again. Buyer beware.

ApplePay option needs work
December 16, 2023

I was buying an item as a gift to be shipped to a friend. When I went to purchase it with ApplePay it immediately defaulted to my home address (rather than using my friend's for delivery) and it immediately processed the payment with no way to correct the address. Fortunately I was able to send an email right away and someone there corrected the issue, but it would seem you could eliminate that challenge fairly easily.

Confusing delivery
January 7, 2023

I contacted Cask Cartel asking for info about delivery. I was sent information pertaining to filing a claim. I wrote back saying I didn't need to file a claim, I just wanted to know when I needed to be home for the delivery. A Cask C. Rep wrote back that my order had indeed been lost or damaged. Then I received an email saying when my order would be delivered Wed. Of this week. The delivery happened and I have my order. Very confusing, and Cask C. Didn't seem to know what was going on with my order.

I found a bottle of 2003 Glenfarclas for a friend's retirement gift at a good price. As I will be travelling when the shipment is likely to arrive, I had to change the destination address, which customer service pleasantly handled promptly. I would be happy to order from them again.

No gift info sent with package. Disappointing
February 2, 2023

This purchase was a gift for a customer of mine. It was supposed to be sent with a note and also a text stating who it came from. The recipient of this gift received nothing and did not know who it came from.

Very disappointing. I will think twice about giving this type of gift again through Cask Cartel
