Received my glasses quickly, good quality and each glass is a little unique, which is great and feels really good in the hand, much better than the mass produced rubbish.. now time for a drink, thanks... See more

We bought the Tempest bundle, its craftsmanship is outstanding. The quality is remarkable and it is a great price. Being able to support an Australian owned and made business was icing on the cake.

Great customer service

I was very excited about ordering the Edo glasses as a gift. When I purchased them free whiskey stones were added to my cart as a bonus. What a nice surprise - be great to add them to my gift I thought.

The glasses arrived in a timely manner but no whiskey stones.

I emailed customer service and it took serval days to got a response.They said they were overwhelmed with the response to their sale, which is good for them.

Apparently they had a software issue and the free whiskey stones should not have been put in my cart.

They have promised to honor they mistake and will send the whiskey stones out to me. Very nice customer service.

Thank you Malt and Brew. I’m glad they have done this as I will definitely be buying more glasses as presents, they are a unique gift to buy for someone that has everything.

Don't get the wooden box!

Don't get the wooden box!

Brought the 2 piece Japan Inspired Hammer Glass in wooden box for $69.95.

The glasses are lovely but the wooden boxes are beyond a disappointed. They are cheaply made, unvarnished and don't look like the display picture. Instead they just say "malt and brew" on the side. I wish I had got the less expensive box now as I think the quality of the box would have been better.

Also I live in Townsville, Australia and ordered 20th in the afternoon and received Tues 30th. So about a 9-10day delivery. If anyone is curious for Christmas.

Reply to comment: The 2 piece Japan Inspired Wave glass without wooden box is $44.95. I paid $69.95 (for Japan inspired hammer glass) Therefore I paid an extra $25 because I wanted the wooden box. The same cost as a single glass.

I would have happily gotten the Japan Inspired Wave glass had it been available with the wooden box. (Prior to knowing the quality of the box). So while the box means very little to you. I paid an extra $25 because I assumed the quality of the box would be the same pride and quality reflected in your glass making.

Hi Danielle,

Thanks for your review and sharing that feedback regarding the wooden boxes.

The wooden box you received is actually our new design - though the box material is the same across all of our wooden box glasses, the Hammer is the only glass currently coming in a branded Malt & Brew box. If you'd prefer the previous design, as shown in the images, I would be happy to have one sent your way.

The large majority of the cost for the hammer glass is derived from the glass itself, not the wooden box and it is not sold in our standard gift box just yet.

I'd be happy to discuss over email or phone a solution to make you more satisfied with your order.

Feel free to reach out at:
info@maltandbrew.com

Kind regards,

Thomas

Hi Bayliss,

Thanks for the review, I'm sorry to hear about the delay with your order.

Your glasses left our warehouse on the 26th of October via Australia Post. I can see here that they are stating a delay has occurred and that no enquiry has been made as of yet.

We are more than happy to resend your order and follow up with Australia Post.

I don't see an email from you here on our end, but if you would like to reach out to me on info@maltandbrew.com - we can organise new glasses be sent your way!

Sadly these delays can occur and Australia Post have been making statements regarding delays with orders due to significantly high volumes and staff limitations due to COVID.

Kind regards,

Thomas

Although I was happy with the prompt…

Although I was happy with the prompt delivery, I am very disappointed with the lack of response from your customer service department.

I wrote an email on the 2nd November, the day after I received my order (Order#5723), to advise that one of the glasses I purchased arrived damaged and I'm yet to receive a response!!

I feel this is very poor service and disregard towards a customer.
I like the product I purchased and I would like it replaced by one that is not damaged and after having paid for something I think one deserves that product asap!

Excellent product and super fast delivery

I found Malt and Brew by chance and I am glad I did. The delivery was super fast and the Japanese inspired glasses are amazing and at a great price. Will definitely be buying more from Malt and Brew.

Great Quality, Range + Fast Shipping

My two Mt Asama Whisky Tasting Glasses came right on time and my sister absolutely loved it and the quality of the glasses. My glasses came with individual wooden boxes and even a free coaster. Love their customer service and the extra step they take to communicate with their customers. Perfect gift options, fast shipping they make sure to send it out as fast as they can to get it to you quickly. It almost didn’t even feel like a cross state shipping.

Overall 5 star experience, you can definitely purchase with them if you want gift ideas check out their range!

Tiny glasses dont be fooled by the pics

Like the other negative reviews on here, the quality of the product does not match the price they are charging. Buyer beware - these are not full sized glasses they're advertising on their website but TASTING GLASSES aka tiny vessels that only hold one cup of liquid. I was going to give this as a present to my partner but when I received the order I realised it would be too embarrassing to give these shot glasses as a present. I emailed the company about it but I felt the tone of the reply was more defensive than apologetic.

They did ask if I wanted to return the order but I just can't be bothered to arrange logistics. For $40 a glass, I reckon these look like they're only worth $10. Basically overpriced for the size and quality. Look elsewhere if you want good quality products and don't be fooled by the pretty pictures on the website.

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your review.

I am having a hard time finding your order with us - but based on what you have written I am going to assume you are talking about the Asama glass. Yes, this glass is a tasting glass - but I would like to assure you and our potential customers that this is the only glass of this size that we sell - the rest are in fact full sized glasses.

We have of course provided the size of the glass in the product description as well as mentioned that it is for tasting sessions - though I respect that maybe this information regarding the Asama is not as obviously available as it should be, this will be rectified.

I would love it if you would give us the opportunity to send you one of our other glasses! Please feel free to send me an email at tsaar@maltandbrew.com with your order number so that it can be arranged.

Kind regards,

Thomas

The glasses are absolutely stunning

The glasses are absolutely stunning. The most beautiful design and craftsman ship. So easy to order and delivery was also fast and matched the time estimated. Would recommend as a gift for a special occasion any time. The great range also enables it be pretty personal.

Thanks

Not value for money

I had two Japanese inspired whisky glasses . One is Sakura snow which is quite good. Good size n shape. However the Sengen is a bit of disappointment. The size is small n super light. It feels a bit cheap. Not value for money.
