Small & Independent retailer list
Updated: Sep 14, 2023
The following information is a growing list of small & independent whisky retailers that I’ve created with the sole purpose of:
Raising awareness of suppliers that you may not have heard of
Trying to help retailers by giving them a shout out on here
Helping to support the underdog as many of the retailers listed below are small businesses and need all the help they can get
I will update this list on a regular basis.
Important note!
When using a supplier to ship internationally, please check with them first to ensure they can definitely meet your overseas shipping requirements!
