DELIVERY INFORMATION

It is your responsibility to ensure that all required information is correct during the ballot process as it will be used to complete your purchase. Shipping charges will be added to your order during purchase. See Taxes and Duties section for further information on how this will be charged.

Please note that the address of our Distillery Shop or any Cadenhead’s Shops cannot be used as we do not offer a collection service for this release. Any orders using our shop or office addresses for delivery will be cancelled.

BUSINESS SHIPPING ADDRESSES

For all orders, customers are required to provide a residential delivery address. Shipments addressed to businesses may require an EORI number and are significantly more prone to customs delays, returns, or loss. As a result, we do not accept responsibility for any issues arising from the use of a business address, including failed delivery, additional charges, or the parcel being held or returned by customs. By placing an order, the customer confirms that a valid residential address has been provided and accepts all associated responsibilities.

TAXES AND DUTIES

All products sold on our website are subject to UK duty; if we are sending to an address within the United Kingdom, prices are subject to Value Added Tax (VAT).

For Rest of the World orders, UK VAT will be automatically deducted from all orders being shipped to addresses outside the UK.

The following information applies to customers shipping orders to the following destinations:

Australia, Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Iceland, Ireland, Israel, Japan, Latvia, Luxembourg, Malta, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Singapore, South Africa, South Korea, Switzerland, Taiwan.

Important Note:  Your order will be subject to local taxes and duties upon arrival in your country, which are levied once the package reaches your country. Any additional charges for customs clearance must be borne by you; we have no control over these charges and cannot predict what they may be. Please be aware that this is different from previous releases. Customs policies vary widely from country to country, so you will need to contact your local customs office if you require further information. Refusal to pay the local import duties and taxes will result in the goods either being: destroyed by customs (if the goods are destroyed, the customer will not be entitled to a refund); or goods being returned to sender at the cost of the consignee (costs deducted from any refund owed).

It is the customer’s responsibility to check the relevant import regulations prior to entering this ballot.

PAYMENT METHODS

Following the ballot closure, and providing your entry is successful, payment is taken via Stripe. We also accept payment from all major credit and debit cards.

RETURNS POLICY

Please check your deliveries on arrival, and please do not accept delivery of any package which appears damaged. If you are unhappy with your purchase, we will happily refund your money if you inform us within 14 days of your goods being delivered.

All unwanted goods must be returned to us in good condition and must be properly packaged to avoid damage in transit. We will not pay to have unwanted goods returned to us unless the product is defective in some way. Proof of damage will often be required.
