It’s exactly what was described. It’s a great conversation starter and it brings lots of hate from other teams’ fans 😂

Good product but terrific customer service! I sent an email to inquire about changing shipping address and was astonished to see a response in minutes! Real person, no auto bot and well into the evening hours local time east coast. Kudos to your team, A++!

This bottle of Scotch is for my Grandson as a gift. He lives in Lexington KY a very famous state for whisky . When I give it to him he and I will certainly enjoy this Scotch. I was recently in Scotland and it was recommended to me by our guide As they say in Scotland ……Slainte Mhath!

Definitely the best cherry liquor I have run across. I had it mixed into a cocktail while in New York and liked it so much I ordered a bottle when I got home and it's now one of my favorites.

Pendleton 20 year directors reserve is my absolute favorite whisky. The website was easy to use. It's a pain having to sign for the package though.

The whiskey is a result of the maker. The prompt service, great price and superb packaging for safe travel is a result of Blackwells. This was my first purchase from Blackwells, but will certainly not be my last. Thank you for exceeding my expectations!

Steven H.

1888 is my favorite rum neat, but this about half the price and nearly as good in a different way. It's lighter and more silky and not too sweet.

Blackwells = Best Service on the Planet I was hunting for something special. Not only did they have something special, but they had the "right" price, however delivery was the adventure, never to forget. Another store was unable to deliver, Blackwells not only helped with the process, but followed up regularly, until it was in my hand. Oh, maybe I forgot to mention, I'm on the other side of the Planet.... You want something, work with Blackwells, if they can't get it to you, NOBODY can. EMC

Visited Widow Jane distillery in Red Hook, Brooklyn NY recently. This is a great whiskey, one of my favorites. Chewy, impactful, smooth, very drinkable. Deserves a place in anyone's whiskey collection.

To be honest I was skeptical about ordering bourbon online but a friend recommended and couldn’t be more than happy! Shipping was incredibly fast going from CA to PA. Bottle came in a box fitted with styrofoam to protect the bottle. The bottle was in great shape! My father-in-law was super excited with his gift! I will be ordering again for myself in the future! And yes the Buffalo Trace was excellent….

This is such a good product I had to leave a review. Such a unique taste and smooth as butter, especially considering the proof. My goal has been to find exceptional drinks at affordable prices and this fits the bill perfectly.

One of the absolute best Irish Whiskeys I have ever had. Very few bottles were produced and I managed to get 6 of them! Great price and very smooth tasting whiskey.

This was sent as a 70 yr birthday gift. He called it “superb”. The container was a nice addition to my brother’s collection. The bottle got to its destination a day early! So an added plus! I would definitely order from Blackwell’s again!

Highland Park 15 Year Old Viking Heart Scotch Whisky

Thomas D.

GOAT. Shame it’s so hard to get but it’s so smooth. Imperceivable it’s a high proof blanco. Others have that ethanol burn that mask the agave. Fortaleza goes down with pure agave flavor.

Purchasing online and picking up our Brazilian national spirit "cachaça" in San Raphael was very easy and efficient! Not to mention It was the only place I found it after long search! Definitely will come back to Blackwell's! Thank you guys!

Blackwell's was a breeze to do business with, I love the product and would buy from them again when I want more. My only wish is that they had more of a selection from the Drayman's brand. Thanks!

Blackwell’s is one of my FAVORITE shops now. Gary has been great to work with and my orders ship quickly, safely and professionally. I’ll be cracking this Willett 8 year sheared later this month and I can’t wait. Keep up the great work, Blackwell’s!!

I'm super impressed with Blackwell's and I've placed multiple orders. Their communication is great and they have ALWAYS shipped my order the same day that I place it online. The bourbon is SUPER!

Found this gem in its hometown, Pitlochry. Smallest distillery in Scotland...hard to find...but a very nice Scotch I'm not anxious to build more demand...it's hard enough to find as it is...so please keep it a secret:) The service from this company is superb...buy lots of stuff from them, just not too much of my scotch!

My experience with Blackwell's with this purchase and several others has been no short of fantastic. Blackwell's has never disappointed. They ensure you know everything about the status of your purchase, where it is and when it will reach you. I am on the East Coast and my deliveries have always without exception been prompt and on time if not even a bit early. That's incredible for a cross-country shipment. I highly recommend Blackwell's to anyone for their wine and spirits needs.

I received the Eagle Rare, and 2 Crystal Head vodkas in the same box and it was packed so well. Gary is the man. Never had a problem with him. And my packages are going a long way…..California to South Carolina! Thanks Gary for your continued great service

I’ve been a 49ers for 40 years and have never set foot in California. But THE CATCH was one of the greatest moments of my life because I had not long moved to Texas and was in a house packed with Cowgirls fans they were talking too much as usual and I got hyped and bet the whole house $50 a piece. At least 11 people so I was a little nervous but well we know the rest but someone on YouTube showed that bottle I’m just glad I found you guys and I be ordering again you guys are great.

Originally I ordered this gin for my husband as a birthday present through another vendor but they had a mishap so they canceled it 2 weeks before the day, and thank goodness these folks had it in stock and delivered within days of ordering because it's definitely one of our top favorite gins. It's a great citrus and floral blend of flavors with a fun colorful twist based on what you add to it. Great store service and a definite winner for a birthday present.

The Illusionist Dry Gin

Larry B.

Outstanding liquor. The apricot flavor is rich, ripe and very present. The balance between the apricot and the alcohol is excellent. Delicious on its own, chilled on ice, room temperature or mixed in a cocktail. I love using it to make a Trade Winds tiki cocktail. A very high quality liquor. Highly recommendable.

I have been waiting for this Remy Martin for a while due to local stores don't have it stock. Blackwell's guaranteed my items arrived to me on time w/o any damage. I will buy again. Thanks Blackwell's

Blackwell’s website is easy to navigate to find products and to place orders. I have found difficult or limited distribution spirits and wines in their inventory. Gary is very responsive and helpful.

Blackwell’ is a great place to shop for hard to find items. I ordered this special edition item and had it within the week. I really appreciate the communication updates on the status of my order and the reminder to be home to sign for it. Other online companies list items for sell that they don’t actually have. Blackwell’s does not do that.

Kyle K.

i only have 1 complaint, but other than that, i love the service. My complaint is that when i bought my first bottle from you guys and payed for 1 day shipping, i didn't get the bottle until a week later, granted it was memorial day weekend and i live on the opposite coast but having said that i fell i should be compensated some of the shipping cost that was paid for as 1 day shipping. regardless i do love your store and services.

Blackened "72 Seasons Limited Edition" Whiskey

I like this beverage very much. Room temperature really brings out the bouquet of the spices and herbs. But, I keep my bottle in the freezer. I splash some over ice and sip away. It really compliments smoked salmon! Skoal!

I bought 3 bottles for my wife and her 2 GF. They all share a birthday in May and they all love horseracing, so I bought this year's bottle to commemorate Secretariet and they loved it!

We ran across this gin 10 years ago while visiting the Crater Lake Distillery in Oregon. My wife and I fell in love with it. We had been able to purchase it locally up until all the local distributors in Wisconsin stopped stocking it. Since then, we've connected with Blackwell's Wines & Spirits as our sole supplier of this fabulous gin. We order once a year for our annual supply. We think Crater Lake Gin is the best gin on the market. The Bohmann's

Dennis M.

I originally bought a bottle of this because I liked the name, proof and label. Very scientific:-). But on Wednesday night a group of us meet, after Church, and sample Bourbons. All are 100 proof or more. The flavor, mellowness and slight bite was pleasant. The price made it on par, and better than more expensive selections. Unfortunately Kansas no longer allows the sale of this. Stupid state.

Very interesting bottle. It's unique with the finish. Drinks a little hot but still pleasant. I had the first pour then went back for more because I realized how much I enjoyed it.

Ok. To be honest I bought it for the cool bottle and stopper. Was very surprised that it's very good. Has a similar taste to the Rare Perfection releases. Unique to itself though. Worth it

Blackwell's is a great place to do business! The website and buying experience is slick and easy. As for the product...Elijah Craig is a great bourbon and this cut is certainly no exception.

It was the first time I've ordered bourbon online. I just wanted to test it out. The experience was seamless. Being able to find allocated bourbon is worth the extra I paid in shipping. I highly recommend Blackwells.

Michael E.

I’ve had this whisky before, and I will be purchasing more. It is a very close match to 12-year-old sherry cask Macallan, which recently had a large increase in price. The cheapest I’ve seen the Macallan lately is right around $100 a bottle. The Glenmorangie 14-year-old is 99% the same, for a bit more than half of that price. Quality product.
