Bundle's
Unfortunately when ordering multiple bundles, gift packs or mixed boxes in one order we cannot ship them in separate boxes due to increased shipping and packaging costs. If you would like them in separate boxes you will need to place a separate order.
Packaging
On occasion we will reuse packaging from our deliveries.

UPDATE – Shipping & Packaging Costs (Effective April 14th, 2025)
Due to further increases in our supplier and packaging costs, we have unfortunately been impacted by higher shipping expenses. In order to continue offering online sales, we have no choice but to adjust our shipping charges accordingly.
Please note that we do not profit from shipping or packaging fees — in fact, we typically absorb part of these costs. While we have explored lower-cost courier options, we experienced a higher rate of breakages with them. For this reason, we continue to use APC, who provide a more reliable service, particularly for liquid and glass bottle deliveries.

You can use this link on the APC website to view your parcel’s progress and access an estimated 2-hour delivery window once available.
If you are not home when delivery is attempted, a card will be left and your parcel will be held at your local APC depot for rescheduling. You can also provide a safe place at checkout for your parcel to be left securely. Please note, if no safe place is provided and two delivery attempts are unsuccessful, a £10 redelivery fee will apply.
