Shipping to Canada

When it comes to ordering whisky from the Netherlands to Canada through Rare Vintage Whisky (RVW), there are several key points that potential customers should be aware of. From shipping costs and delivery times to the packaging methods and insurance coverage, RVW ensures that every bottle of rare whisky is delivered safely and securely to its Canadian customers.

Shipping Costs: €90.00

One of the most significant factors in the shipping process is the cost. For orders shipping from the Netherlands to Canada, the cost is €90.00. While this might seem high, it is important to consider the specific nature of the product being shipped. Whisky, particularly rare and vintage bottles, requires special care and attention during transportation. The €90.00 fee covers not only the cost of international shipping but also the necessary packaging and handling to ensure the whisky arrives in perfect condition.

For customers who are investing in rare and expensive whisky, this cost is often seen as a worthwhile investment to ensure the product arrives intact. It’s also important to note that shipping fees for delicate or luxury items, like whisky, tend to be higher due to the precautions required to prevent damage during transit.

Delivery Time: 5 to 8 Business Days

Once the order has been placed, customers in Canada can expect a delivery time of 5 to 8 business days. This range accounts for the international shipping process, which can vary depending on several factors, including customs clearance and local delivery times in Canada.

It’s worth noting that this delivery time is an estimate, and RVW strives to ensure that orders are processed and shipped as quickly as possible. Customers can track their orders to stay updated on the progress of their shipment. Although RVW makes every effort to stick to the estimated delivery time, occasional delays can occur due to unforeseen circumstances, such as customs inspections or weather-related disruptions.

For customers ordering rare and collectible whisky, the 5 to 8 business day window is generally considered reasonable. The delivery time reflects the effort and attention that goes into ensuring the whisky is shipped safely across international borders.

Packaging: Thickly Wrapped with Bubble Wrap and Filling Material in a Sturdy Box

One of the key concerns when shipping whisky, especially rare and valuable bottles, is ensuring that the product arrives without damage. RVW takes this responsibility seriously and uses thorough packaging methods to protect the whisky during transport.

Each bottle is thickly wrapped with bubble wrap, ensuring a protective cushion around the glass to prevent breakage. The bottle is then placed in a sturdy box, filled with additional filling material to prevent movement within the box. This ensures that the whisky bottle is secure and protected from impact or rough handling during transit.

RVW's commitment to careful packaging is a testament to their understanding of the importance of these rare bottles to their customers. Collectors and enthusiasts purchasing from RVW can feel confident that their whisky will arrive in pristine condition, ready to be enjoyed or added to their collection.

Insurance: Coverage for Damage, Theft, Breakage, Label Damage, and Loss

RVW goes a step further in ensuring the safety of your shipment by offering comprehensive insurance coverage. When shipping valuable and rare whisky, especially internationally, it is crucial to have insurance to protect against any potential issues that may arise during transit.

The insurance offered by RVW covers a wide range of scenarios, including:

• Damage: Any damage to the bottle during the shipping process is covered by the insurance. This includes damage caused by rough handling or accidents that may occur during transit.
• Theft: In the unlikely event that the shipment is stolen, either during transportation or after delivery, the insurance will cover the cost of the stolen whisky.
• Breakage: Should the bottle break during shipping, despite the protective packaging, the insurance will cover the replacement or refund of the broken item.
• Label Damage: For collectors, the condition of the label is just as important as the condition of the bottle itself. RVW’s insurance covers any damage to the label, ensuring that the bottle retains its full value.
• Loss: If the package is lost during shipping, the insurance will ensure that the customer is compensated for the loss.

This comprehensive insurance coverage provides customers with peace of mind, knowing that their investment is protected throughout the shipping process. RVW understands that rare and vintage whisky is not only a luxury item but also a significant financial investment, and they take every precaution to ensure it arrives safely.

Shipping to Canada

Shipping whisky from the Netherlands to Canada comes with its own unique set of challenges, particularly when it comes to customs regulations and duties. RVW is experienced in international shipping and understands the necessary procedures to ensure that whisky is shipped legally and arrives without unnecessary delays.

However, Canadian customers should be aware that they may be responsible for paying import duties and taxes upon delivery. These fees are not included in the €90.00 shipping cost and will vary depending on the specific laws and regulations in Canada. RVW advises customers to check with local customs authorities for an estimate of these additional costs before placing an order.

RVW works closely with reputable international couriers to ensure that all necessary customs documentation is completed accurately and efficiently. This minimizes the risk of delays or issues with customs clearance. Additionally, RVW’s team is available to assist customers with any questions they may have regarding the customs process or additional fees.
