The Whisky Vault was born from ideas created by Philip and Richard Hawley, a Father/Son relationship, based in Yorkshire, UK. We are an incredibly enthusiastic business and currently run this as an entirely family-oriented project. Since the idea was embraced, many moons ago, we have been hard at work putting all the pieces together, in order to turn our vision into reality. Philip has been collecting rare specimens of whisky for a number of years, but the hobby has since turned into a passion. As time progressed, it was clear Philip had a real eye for quality and that this could become more than a pastime, it was time to put our skills together to create something special, what would later, of course, become The Whisky Vault. Richard has had a lot of experience in the customer service business and has successfully owned a thriving bar in Leeds. This, coupled with an honorary degree in Business and Computing, really gave us a chance to set the ball rolling, we had our key ingredients. With Richard at the helm of all the design and content of the site, plus the set up and licensing requirements, it was left to Philip to effectively be our stock controller and manager, ensuring we had plentiful, but essentially, quality products to offer to the world’s army of whisky lovers. As we go forward, we are confident this is the case. With over one thousand items in our catalogue, there are expressions of whisky that are very rare and indeed sought after. We will endeavour to keep the site exciting and fresh and therefore be consistently adding new products, as and when we acquire them. Having a customer services background, we understand the importance of fair, quality and efficient service. We adhere to this policy relentlessly.

very rapid delivery and top service
Very good service, packaging well made and rapid delivery
Great scotch
I was extremely happy with how quick the Whiskey Vault got back to me with my questions. They answered all my questions fully which made me place an order straight away.
From the time I placed my order, it took around a week to receive it which I was very surprised at due to the fact that it was coming from overseas. (Most things I order within Australia take at least two weeks to arrive.)
When I did receive my order, there was no damage to the parcle or it's contents what so ever.
I was particularly impressed with the display of my Scotch Whiskey and I would definitely reccomend this company to anyone.
I surely intend on buying more products off them again in the near future.
Quick, friendly and efficient.
I bought a bottle of whisky from the Whisky Vault for my Dad's retirement. I had left it late and was worried that it may take a while to be delivered but I was very pleased that it came within a few days. My Dad is a whisky connoisseur, so I wanted to get something a bit different. The guys at the whisky vault were very helpful and friendly. It was a huge success and my father loved it. Cheers.
Fab and speedy service
Purchased a bottle for significant birthday celebration, we chose a recommeded bottle, it was quickly processed and received. we would definitely use the whiskey vault again!
Delivered earlier than expected and superbly packaged.
MAGNIFICO!
Never thought, I would ever find my favorite Laphroaig again, the only regret, is, wish I had found this excellent site earlier! Thanks for the great service, lads and will be back in the near future!
Terrific
Thank u for having such any easy process to get such a unique gift
Rare whisky found
I was looking for a rare Glenlivet.
Whisky vault was the only site which had this in stock.
The service and delivery were perfect and further purchases were helped with knowledge courtesy.
Got to Australia very Fast!
Great to find someone selling Snow Phoenix online.
Was sad to find the metal box scratched and dented a lot though :(

Hey its a great easy to use website, prices on most items are much better value and reasonably priced, even on some of the rarer items I recently purchased.
Will be regularly looking at this website for new arrivals!

The place to go for your best selection
A friend recommended to me. I was looking for special bottle of certain year which no longer sold in the US. A present. I never before bought liquor overseas. Not only the proprietor located the bottle, he even recommended better year for less money. Very honest. He also ensured the bottle gets here on time. This will be my go to place. I subsequently compared price at a store in California and even including shipment, it was double.
OUTSTANDING !!!

RELIABLE SHIPMENT.
