5* service
Have ordered a few times now, never had any issues. So far so good despite some of the earlier reviews they received.
5* from me.
If I have to give a down side, answering messages is not their strong point, and a phone number on their website would be handy.
Competition results please?
I bought tickets for one of the competitions on the sight in April. Competition didn't close until June, web page says "Wait for results". I have had no response to email or Facebook messages/comments asking for the results of the competition.
Nightmare to deal with
After 2 successful orders - an online tasting and a fine malt whisky - my latest experience has been a nightmare. Order placed on 3rd July. Still no sign of goods, no reply to emails and the one time I managed to speak to someone I was fobbed off. Something has obviously gone very wrong here.
Very Disappointed.

Good price
Good price, which is a major factor but
- packaging was poor
- included glass, nothing special
- worst of all for me was, the carton had the lid missing. A small point for many but important for me!

5 stars
A little bumpy to begin with as my bottle got put with the Fathers day delivarys and was a bit concerned as I had no idea why i hadnt recieved a delivary number.
I contacted them via Email and was responded to within the hour with an explanation and Apology and little something extra for the inconvenience. Very happy with the service.
very disappointed with S.W.W.WILL NOT USE AGAIN
This is a follow on from S.W.W drop us a line, and we will resolve well after 2emails 1 phone number and yet another email, hear we are still no glasses as stated on S.W.W advert, I do not know what more I can do other than not use this company any more

Inaccurate inventory/product list
Inaccurate inventory/product list. Erroneous order dispatched email. No delivery. Order cancelled. Zero communication of order status despite attempting to make contact by email, phone, facebook, google maps. Only consolation star was for issuing refund without me asking (well I couldnt even if I wanted to!)

The worst
The worst
Do not use, I am still awaiting my refund, They have no customer care at all. I had to phone three times to ask where my whisky was ? They eventually told me they didn't have it in stock. They don't respond to emails, comms is terrible. Three weeks on and still awaiting refund, So be warned, I will never use this firm again !!!!
How unbelievable, you can reply to bad feedback so quickly. When i have not had one reply to numerous emails and phone calls to you. Such a shame it has had to come to this. If you do look in to the matter you will see i have given you plenty of chances to reply, before it came to me leaving bad feedback. Looking forward to your response.
For your reference - [Order #6986] (9 May 2021)
