Pretty good products, but for the expense you'd assume great service and deliveries. However, deliveries take forever, they are really difficult to contact and do not often reply to customer service emails, are inflexible with simple gift messages to be incorporated into packages, and the message option on their site is dysfunctional. And this all applies even when your orders are $500-$1000. Most ridiculous is that for orders of multiple products you are intending to be sent as a single gift, they wont even ship them together so the gift can't be received at all once. This has happened multiple times, and you'd think I'd learn my lesson to not shop with them... But my grace does have a limit, especially with multiple $500-$1000 orders, so I WILL NEVER SHOP HERE AGAIN! And I will be describing my experience with this horrible company all over review- and social-media platforms. I strongly recommend you shop at whiskybase or other competitors instead.
I was looking for a bottle of liquor that I couldn't find anywhere local, and decided to order a bottle online. Price for the product and shipping was reasonable, but I'll admit I did bite my nails the whole time waiting as packages are generally not delivered with any consideration to 'fragile'. I was very pleased to see that it was packaged so well that they could have air dropped it straight out of a plane into my front yard and it would have been perfectly intact.
Thank you for sharing and being such a valued customer to Caskcartel.com!
I had a wonderful experience with Cask Cartel shopping for my husband's present for Christmas. Whichever flavor is his favorite will get him a bottle of it after he tastes each of the flavors in the calendar.
Thank you for sharing!
I recently had the displeasure of doing business with this horrible merchant. The transaction went terribly and the merchant had ample opportunity to rectify the problem and did not.
There is simply no reason to do business with this merchant.
Run in the opposite direction as fast as you can.
I got my friend a birthday present and i loved the service and was hype that it came with little samples but my friend is allergic to nuts and you gave them peanut whiskey
I think it should be common sense to not include samples that contain allergens especially if you cant decide what samples you can get
I mistakenly placed an order for an incorrect product, and after immediately recognizing it, I requested to cancel shortly after placing it. With no concern for my satisfaction, a rep, named Skilyn, disrespectfully refused to consider my request. In contrast of a reputable merchant, Skilyn pointed to the fine print in their purchase agreement. Plus, their prices are super high compared to other online retailers.
Plus, their allowance is 30 days to receive a product after placing an order, so I would not trust them for any holiday orders. This is not a credible group and I regret attempting my order.
I've looked for this scotch for a long time and found it through you. The process was great but I just wish that the timing was a little more precise. I'm gone majority of the month and my time home is only weekends except for one week a month. If I knew exactly when to order to ensure that I'm home when it's delivered so I can sign for it.
Thank you for sharing. We appreciate the feedback!
As it turns out, the item I ordered was available from other sources at least 25% cheaper and shipping charges were outrageous. Furthermore, the "Bonus Gift" that was offered at check out was not sent. Be sure to read the "fine print" Cask Cartel does NOT allow order cancellation.
The site is easy to navigate and purchasing was not difficult. However, I would have liked a better explanation and more communication about how long the product takes to arrive. Site says it's in stock, but it wasn't abundantly clear that the order takes 2.5-3 weeks for arrival due to customs. In stock did not mean in stock at US facilities and I got no update after the order was placed until I reached out nearly two weeks later.
Thank you for sharing! We appreciate the feedback.
I looked for a specific tequila in the city where I tasted it at a pub ("Number Juan"). Also looked in my city when I returned from that trip.
Even contacted a friend who works for a liquor distributor.
I finally found Cask Cartel on line and am very happy I did.
Cheers!
What a wonderful share! Thank you so much!
The customer service is terrible. They give you a 3-5 day processing estimate on their website but buried in their fine print is they have 30 days to process an order. This is deceptive at minimum. When you ask for a refund 2 weeks later you are met with arrogance and refusal to refund. I would not order anything from this company. If you do, expect your order to be received 2 months later. Do not give your money to this company. You will regret it.
Gift cards were delivered in the denominations expected and were easily transferred to those they were intended for. Seems to be pretty f'in simple, but in this day and age, no assumptions are safe. Cask Cartel performed as expected.
Thank you for sharing. We appreciate the feedback!
I received my advent calendar with several individual boxes opened. Because there was no packing material in between the shipping box and the advent calendar, the movement during transport caused the whiskey bottles to press on the advent squares and open. This is very disappointing.
Hi Melinda and thank you so much for this provided feedback. Please reach out to our Customer Service Team at hello@caskcartel.com and they will be able to assist you with a replacement if your order was damaged during the transit process. We apologize for any inconvenience.
Just after submitting my order I had a question and called Cask Cartel. I was amazed to immediately talk to a human being who was not only very helpful but was nice and cheerful also! The ordering process was easy and arrived promptly. Great service!
Thank you for sharing! We appreciate the feedback.
I was looking everywhere for a specific gin for a friend and this is the only place I could find it! All liquor shops were sold out if it. My friend is blown away and so excited to get her favorite spirit!
Thank you so much for the feedback!
I had a great experience with my first purchase for Cask Cartel and I will continue to use them, but I was disappointed in this last order because the distributor they used was in Florida. I thought it would come directly from the distillery that sells the whiskey in NC. The order was to go to Maryland. NC is closer. I purchased it for my cousin for Christmas. When I ordered for myself, in Georgia and for Thanksgiving, it came quickly so I thought the same would happen for his gift, but it got to my Aunt's house after he left. Thankfully, he will be back in the spring, but a special occasion was missed.
Thank you for sharing! We appreciate the feedback and are so sorry to hear that you were not satisfied with your second order placed.
This was my first time buying alcohol online, and I didn't know what to expect or how difficult the process would be. They had exactly what I wanted, which is a hard-to-find European alcohol, and the shipping/receiving process was like any other package, with tracking included and the alcohol very carefully packed. I would recommend this company to anyone!
We appreciate the feedback!
I ordered a product and was told after about two weeks that either I would have to cancel my order or pay an additional $50. I cancelled my order and got a great refund and store credit which was nice except I ordered another product and it took a month to deliver. I also was unable to track it even after downloading the recommended app. Shipping was shockingly expensive which I didn't understand and was an unpleasant surprise every time I checked out. I stopped into a liquor store the other day and found every single bottle I was looking at for much less money and obviously no shipping costs.
Thank you for the provided feedback, May. We apologize that your experience with the Marketplace was not satisfactory and do hope that we have not jeapordized a future relationship with you as a customer.
I ordered 14 bottles of tequila. On the delivery date, only two bottles arrived and I received notice from the company that the order had been fulfilled. I had to 'prove' that it had not. It took two more weeks for the rest of the order to be delivered and Cask Cartel took no responsibility. They blamed their retail suppliers and the shipping company, but offered no assistance in tracking down why the order was split into three different deliveries. It took a half dozen phone calls, emails, and photos to finally get my order. I will NEVER order from this company again.
Hello Carol. Thank you so much for this candid feedback and we are so sorry that you did not have a pleasant experience with your order. As stated in your review, you ordered 14 bottles of tequila. Unfortunately, to preserve the condition of the bottles while in transit, they would be required to be shipped separately. Typically, the most our fulfillment team will ship together is 6 bottles. However, even that is not always a good idea due to the items being so fragile. We apologize that this was not convenient for you. We have brought this review to the attention of our upper management team to ensure our future customers do not encounter the same circumstances as we are always looking for new ways to improve. Again, we appreciate this feedback and hope that you will give us another chance in the future!
I unfortunately ordered from this Co. Before reading reviews. I read reviews immediately after placing orders. E mailed them immediately to cancel the order. That was within 10 minutes of placing the order. They had all ready grabbed the money and said they could not cancel the order. Contacted PayPal and they told me to call them for refund. Of course they refused. So I will be calling PayPal back on the 5th as they instructed me to and go from there. SHADY COMPANY!
