We take packaging seriously. Every bottle is wrapped in protective material and secured in a sturdy cardboard box designed for liquid shipments. We use discreet packaging – plain cardboard box with no external branding indicating alcohol inside. This protects your privacy and reduces the risk of theft. If you order multiple bottles, we ensure they are separated to prevent breakage.

If your bottle arrives damaged, please contact us immediately. Take photos of:

  • The outer packaging before opening

  • The damaged bottle inside its packaging

  • The shipping label

Email all photos to info@vintagewhiskyshops.com within 48 hours of delivery. We will send you a replacement bottle at no cost or issue a full refund. Order online today with confidence – we stand behind every shipment.

  • Label authenticity – correct fonts, colours, and details

  • Capsule condition – no signs of tampering or replacement

  • Provenance – sourced from reputable suppliers with verifiable histories

Additionally, all Scotch whisky bottles carry distillery codes and batch numbers. All vintage bottles are photographed before shipping. If you ever have concerns about a bottle’s authenticity, contact us immediately.

  • A replacement bottle of equal or greater value
