Do you ship to other countries?
Yes, Bourbon Barrel Foods ships to other countries. We will not be able to provide you with an estimate of shipping costs. Costs are determined by sipping weights and regions. Shipping cost can be calculated at checkout prior to payment.
Shipment to other countries takes longer to process. Bourbon Barrel Foods will fill out all customs forms, but these boxes do get flagged often – the word bourbon is in the name of the company.
All orders to Canada will be shipped via UPS standard (negotiated) shipping. All applicable customs and import duties and fees, taxes and any other charges and fees are the responsibility of the customer (even if you refuse any shipments upon delivery).We ship your package DDU, “duties and taxes unpaid”, and we do not collect the VAT, duties and/or taxes and cannot predict what your particular charges may be. If your order does require these additional charges, they must be paid by you in order for your package to clear customs. Some countries may require additional fees paid Collect on Delivery (COD). These fees are paid to the local carrier and are not collected by Bourbon Barrel Foods.
Customs authorities require that we state the value of your order directly on your package(s). Customs agents have the right to release or deny release of your package(s), and in rare cases, they may also delay delivery.

Order Issues
What happens when a product arrives damaged?
We pack all of our orders to the best of our ability. However, transit can be very hard on a box. Please take pictures of the damage and let us know right away. We will do what we can to resolve the problem. Email info@bourbonbarrelfoods.com.
Why was my package returned?
The most common reason a package is returned or stops tracking is because it was visibly broken/damaged in transit. This can take extra time to sort out and process before we are notified. If you notice an issue with the tracking process before we do, don’t hesitate to reach out. Once we know of the problem we can work on solutions. Email info@bourbonbarrelfoods.com.
Missing or wrong items sent - What should I do?
All of our orders are filled by humans. We strive to get your order right, but make mistakes from time-to-time. We always want to make them right for you. Please let us know if your order showed up incorrectly and we will fix it. Email info@bourbonbarrelfoods.com.
