Amazing

By Steve Repko, Cleveland, Ohio, Verified Reviewer

Great way to test out beverages with breaking the bank. Comes in a cool package, great for gifts. Bought for a relative as a thank you, they were super impressed and happy with it. I will be purchasing again for both myself and as a gift!

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

Taste

By Stephen Hurley, Birmingham, United Kingdom, Verified Reviewer

Flaviar offers you some divine spirits, some you can afford and maybe like me, some you cannot. However, even the ones I choose are delightful in taste. Keep up the good work Flaviar.

Great little club

By Dwayne Serjeant, Hong Kong, Verified Reviewer

I've been a member of Flaviar for a while now and really enjoy it. They have a great collection of whiskey, rum, gin and others. But what I really like is the free shipping and the tasting samples. I can't say it's the most comprehensive collection, but it's curated well, and they have a real personality when it comes to communicating with you.

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

Great experience.

By Kevin Tapply, Denver, Colorado, Verified Reviewer

I really appreciate Flaviar. Selection is good. Shipping is fast. Taste boxes allow me to try a lot without buying the entire bottle only to find I don't like it. Most of all the folks at Flaviar are awesome at customer care. Thank you.

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

Delivery comes on time, and as always, great taste. I found a great company that provides the type of spirits that are to my liking. I would challenge people who have a particular taste to try it!

Widow Jane

By Gale Michael Tschuor, Charlotte, NC, Verified Reviewer

One word: Pappyesk!

I read where someone said it tastes twice its age, and I couldn't agree more. I'm ordering more today. Stocking up before the world of Bourbon drinkers find this stuff!

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

Good product offering bad customer service

By Ralph Hodkinson, Northern New Jersey, Verified Reviewer

I ordered a bourbon, but they shipped it to the wrong address. After delivery, attempted five times to the wrong address, it was sent to the FedEx store after I tracked it down by the tracking number and had it sent there. At no time did Flaviar do anything to help. Then their customer service person decided to be a "smarty pants" with his attitude. Believe me, Caskers is a much better company to deal with.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Not a subscription box service.

By Nicolaos Antippas, Greece, Verified Reviewer

It's an online community of sorts and not a subscription service. You pay their subscription fees for the chance to buy small tasting boxes at questionable market prices and to be allowed to purchase from their online shop. The packaging and accompanying materials that are included with purchases are very well made and expertly/humorously written (they have someone there who's adept in prose), and they seem to be knowledgeable and capable in the world of tasting and spirits.

If you'd like to subscribe to an online resource, and accompanying community and exclusive shop, then this is for you. If you're looking for a monthly drinks-box, like I was, then this isn't it. Sadly, Flaviar's "marketing" is ambiguous and vague (maybe on purpose) on this state-of-affairs, thereby snagging unsuspecting monthly-box subscribers like myself.

Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Basil Hayden Bourbon

By David Leeman, Sarasota, FL, Verified Reviewer

Smooth, beautiful aroma with fruit and charcoal taste; my friends and I love it. I served it at a Kentucky Derby party at our home. Everyone who had a glass of the Basil Hayden asked: "What is this Bourbon? It is delicious."

Shopping experience

By Teresa Mccamish, Dahlonega, GA, Verified Reviewer

This is the best website for bottles not found on the majority of shelves at liquor stores and the pricing is perfectly set. Great experience with shopping and tasting new worlds. Thank you and for fairly delivering. It was very fast and safe packing made my bottles arrive safely.
