Our Story

We started out with our physical shop, Whisky Barrel Shop, which was established in April 2019 in London, with one mission: to bring a dedicated, specialist Scotch Whisky Shop to London. We opened on the 5th of July 2019. In 2020, we moved in to a biger (the not so little whisky shop) and we decided to seperate out the online shop from the physical shop as we wanted to develop our warehouse to be able to also deal with wholesale as well as take the pressure off the shop for the online sales.


Our Approach

We pride ourselves on providing an experience to remember, as much as is possible online, and in the long-term relationships we build with our customers. We want people to come back to Whisky Barrel because they know they will find what they are looking for either on our shelves or if they do not, know we will help them find it. If we do not have it in stock we will try to source it for you at the best price we can.


Our Prices

We are very competitive on prices, matching as best we can, the two largest online retailers. There are occasions where we even beat them and the supermarkets for pricing (unless they are doing loss leaders)! We cannot always do so as our costs vary depending on availability and supplier, but we do try. If you do not think we are competitive on a particular price please ask and we will look at what we can do, but please do remember that margins in this business are really tight.
