Wasn't sure about Licorea as I had never heard of them. Ordered 4 bottles of my fav drink Captain Morgans Black Spiced Rum.

Goods turned up on quoted date (a few days), absolutely bomb proof packaging so impressed. Will defo be reordering, 1st class company.

Very Good

Having read some of the negative reviews I was a little wary of ordering. The price for what I wanted, however, seemed too good to miss so I thought I would take the chance. My experience is as below where I have addressed some points from previous reviews. Note that my delivery was to Germany:
Delivery - very quick. The wine arrived 3 days after ordering
Packing - the wine was packed in a polystyrene block with holes for the wine and encased in a cardboard box so no damage to the wine possible
Content - exactly as ordered
Bottom line: I had zero problems and will use them again

Excellent Company

I live in Scotland and have placed about 14 orders with Licorea over the past 18 months. Generally, the goods arrive within 7 to 10 days. On an odd occasion I have had to email Licorea & Ines gets back within 24 hours to say the product was out of stock etc but would be dispatched within the next 3 days. I got an email confirmation when dispatched. Also UPS broke a bottle & again I emailed Ines and got an immediate response to offer me a refund or a discount code.
I always pay in Euros. Think those nasty comments must be from some other local rival who cannot compete with Licorea. Viva Licorea

Dreadful amateur outfit

Advertise 3-4 days shipping, but took a month. The order was missing bottles, and I had to keep asking for the missing ones before they sent them. Did not offer apologies or anything. Their site is made by an amateur and is full of glitches that give an incorrect price to the order. They are so used to problems they film their own employees packing the bottles! Avoid like a stomach bug.

Hi Arhur, pardon us, we are not able to locate your full name and order number for a complete review of the problem. Our courier takes 3-4 days its true, but as you can read in site we need arounf 24-48 hrs for handle the order (this makes a minimum of 6 bussines days for receive an order), bottles are very fragile and from a diferent kind of shapes and we have to personally protect every bottle or choose the best protection for every bottle. At order reception (less than 24 hrs) we ever update orders with information about any problem if exists, like a delay in product reception. This update its ever showed in order status and by mail, and we always offer a solution or a information about the time requiered for be solved.
We are not amateur, we are a 15 years old online website, we were not be able to solve your problem as soon your needs please take our highest apologies, but you haven been informed in lees than 24 hrs of the problem and if this problem has been take so long has been for your decission for wait, we try ever to solve and ship order quickly due our high densitiy of orders received. We have try to contact with you by your username for know your true name and order for track the problem and solve any incidence made for one of ours employes. And about: "its full of glitches that give an incorrect price to the order" thats not true we ever give te final price of the order, if you have paid with GBP and you bank has add fees to the transaction because we are a european with EUR site, please contact your bank (we ever advise this situation before checkout) But without your real name and order number its very difficult to track was really happend.

Disgusting company

Disgusting company. sent totally wrong order and expect me to drag a heavy box to UPS for them as they can't be bothered t arrange pick up. They are refusing to send my correct order untill I do. It's them that messed up the order not me. Will let paypal sort it now.

Hi, you received a wrong order due a mistake in labels but you doesn't give intention in return the packet received, finally paypal told you to return packet and you was refunded when the packet was received due that, you refused receive a new parcel. Thats the courier rules in this cases as we told you several times.

Amazing service

I have been ordering whisky and vodka from licorea.com for no less than 10 months now. Amazing service all the time. Products exactly as described and arrived quicker than expected (6 purchases). Great service and very good packaging.

Avoid this company if from the U.K

Avoid this company. Over 200 euro taken from my account one month ago. They don't have the stock, have not delivered and do not reply to my emails anymore. They have effectively stolen my money also - similar experience to the negative reviews here.

I have to lodge a complaint through my credit card company.

UPDATE! - Please see reply from Licorea below which shows their poor attitude to customers. This is what you will be dealing with. My order number is 38527, ordered on 23rd November for 190.41 pounds or 207.42 euro.

You did not have the stock, and I realised this when I chased you on 09th December wondering where my order was. Having lost confidence in your company I asked for a refund - my right due to non delivery. I have never received the refund but please do print the proof of refund here for all your customers to see.

I have sent many tickets and you last replied a week ago promising a refund. I have all email and ticket correspondence. No replies since and no refund.

Also I am not obligated to post my full name and personal details online.

I have contacted Barclaycard to complain.

Sub standard product and very poor customer service

I ordered 130 bottles of 5cl markers mark via Licorea and very unhappy with the experience. Firstly, the items took about a month to arrive, which wasn't ideal. When we checked the packaging 9 of the 130 bottles were not full, some of them half empty. I sent the company pictures of the bottles which were clearly well below the levels shown on the website. I was told that they would only refund 1 of the bottles, which was basically empty. Given that I have purchased these for my wedding, I was very disappointed in the customer service. I received sub standard products and refused a refund. A very short sighted response which would mean I would never purchase from this company again.

Thats not true all really damaged bottles were refunded. Case was sent directly from Makers Mark to us, was not possible to check every little 5 cl bottle because case was sealed by manufacturer. We protected original case and sent to you. After your mail you received an fast full refund from really damaged bottles. You tried to receive refund from other bottles in correct state, and our insurance doesn’t accepted your full claim, only partial.

Read to the end, 2 different experiences

I first ordered a few year ago, around £300-400. Fortunately it was on my credit card. I was led to believe shipment would be pretty quick but after complaints etc I got nowhere. It eventually took well over a month & broken items in it so I claimed through visa. They gave a full refund and said it was up to the company to arrange collection. In all it took well over 3 month but I ended up with the refund and almost all the order. Obviously I vowed not to use them again.... But, years on & their prices attracted me again & this time their delivery times were showing it could take a while (so at least honest now). I decided to risk it with Christmas approaching. I again placed a large order and this time although the boxes were tatty and some with large bottles which didn't fit right had to be extra taped to keep them secured everything arrived in good order and within the month. I have litre whisky's & gin for less than £8, other whisky's worth around £30 for under £14. Absinthe 90%abv for £13 etc etc. I would now use again although I noticed recently prices are rising. Should still get good bargains though & without paying for flights or ferry.

My "official" liquor and wine supplier

My "official" liquor and wine supplier

I found this shop almost by chance when looking for ways to buy from Austria some liquor bottles that can only be found in Spain. Not only the variety on the catalogue was enormous but also the prices really competitive!

Also the bottles are always cautiously packed and the packages arrive really fast. I am extremely satisfied.

I'll definitely consider buying again

Recieved my package(s) completely intact with no damage what-so-ever. I was supposed to recieve one package but due to one bottle being too large to fit in the shipment box it was shipped in a second box with no extra charges added. Props to the shipping company for handling the boxes with care.

Horrible Packaging of Items

Ordered Two items from Licorea shipping took over three weeks and one item was broken. Emailed the company and here is their response. "Hello. For America there's no insurance for broken or lost as you can read in our conditions; This sure wasn't explained during the buying process and the packaging was horrible for a glass product. - very little . I paid crazy shipping prices of around $50. I will never buy from this company again. Please think twice before before buying with them.

Absolutely terrible company. Money stolen.

I have never left feedback about a company in all of my life, but have felt compelled to do whatever I can to help others because of how bad this experience has been.

I ordered a £28 bottle of Licor 43 to be delivered at the beginning of December, having not received the package I attempted to contact them in January. They told me that the item had been 'attempted to be delivered' and, as I was not in my home at the time, the item had been returned to Spain. There was no indication of a delivery attempt, from the courier, or a warning that this could happen when I ordered.

After a few emails, they then said that they would not refund me as I had to pay for the shipping cost of the return! Even writing this I am getting angry again as I have never experienced such a ridiculous company, as they have effectively stolen my money. AVOID DOING BUSINESS WITH LICOREA! Especially if you are from the UK, DO NOT TRUST THEM!
