Excite your taste buds!

By Jack Shea, Virginia Beach, VA, Verified Reviewer

Having read glowing reviews of Tellings Small Batch Irish, I wanted to try it and since it's extremely rare that I would find it at a local bar or restaurant, I knew I would have to purchase a bottle. The thought resided in the back of my mind until Flaviar actually offered it at a price better than I had seen before. So before my luck changed I ordered it and the delivery was speedy and sampling. I found the taste is a real treat for my taste buds.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

A taste of something different

By Avril Allshire-Howe, Rosscarbery, Co. Cork, Ireland, Verified Reviewer

I joined Flaviar quite a while ago now, but spent the first while reading the monthly newsletters and especially the reviews. As my husband enjoys a glass of gin, my first purchase was gin. I have bought the tasters which are a great way to taste and see what suits your palate. This month was a mystery, which means I'm going to savour the drinks and the implied challenge to see if my prognosis is similar to the Flaviar team. It will be interesting.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Great deals on quality whiskeys

By Patrick, Chicago, IL, Verified Reviewer

Flaviar is a great service. They sell whiskey at prices that are below what local stores list so that even with delivery it comes out about the same, but you save time driving all over to different stores for some hard-to-find bottles. You order it, and you know you're going to here a knock at the door in a week or so. I usually get more than one bottle so I have one to give.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

LOVE our Subscription. Gin, Rum, Scotch & Whiskey.

By Laura, Arizona, Verified Reviewer

My husband and I love our Flaviar subscription. They actually have a LOT more than just whiskey, so don't let that comment above fool you. We have had all sorts of options, and you can also opt out of a box if you don't like the curated box of the month and choose another spirit, or to apply your membership to a bottle instead. The options are wonderful, and I can't think of a single reason not to have fun with this great company's offerings.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Flavia goes Japanese

By Roger, Ascot, UK, Verified Reviewer

I usually hate review like this but I have bought an excellent Japanese whiskey about 5 months ago which, by the way, is excellent. Recently I purchased a Japanese gin which is also more than promising.

I trust Flaviar with their recommendations and frankly their pricing. So far the ordering process has been exemplary.

Ardbeg Corryvreckan

By Stephen Blacke, Ozark, Missouri, Verified Reviewer

My son was in Phoenix a couple of weeks ago and went to a Cigar Bar there and tried the Ardbeg for the first time and called me to tell me. So I ordered a bottle and was quite pleased.

Buying spirits that new and different from home and having it made easy fro you.

By Patrick Geiger, Buffalo, NY, Verified Reviewer

I purchased a bottle of Koval bourbon from Flaviar after reading their review on it. The review was spot on and the Koval was even better than I was expecting it to be.

Flaviar sent several e-mails to me confirming my order and giving me updates as to when it would ship, and when it would arrive. It actually got here several days before they estimated that it would.

Lastly, they asked me to rate their service and how I felt about the experience as a whole. Their approach was more what you would expect if someone had bought a $600 bottle of scotch rather than a 50 dollar bottle of bourbon.

I'm looking forward to a long and enjoyable membership with Flaviar.

Exploring the Spirit Realm

By Anthony Shook, NC, Verified Reviewer

Flaviar has opened my taste buds to a wider variety of spirits, some that I'd never heard of before. The member prices are better than the state-run ABC stores (often those places don't carry the wonders that Flaviar has for you). All-in-all, really glad to be a member and highly recommend them.

Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend
