Master of Malt

Master of Malt traces its roots to 1985, when it began as a small independent bottler fulfilling mail-order requests for single malt whiskies. The business was transformed in the early 2000s when it moved entirely online, and has since grown into one of the UK's largest specialist drinks retailers - now fully founder-owned and independent.

What they stock

The range is enormous, spanning thousands of whiskies alongside gin, rum, vodka, cognac, tequila and more. Master of Malt is particularly well known for its "Drinks by the Dram" format - 3cl sample-size bottles that allow you to try before committing to a full bottle. Their annual advent calendars, offering 24 drams across various spirit categories, have become a cult favourite.

Independent bottlings

As an independent bottler in their own right, Master of Malt selects and bottles single casks under their own label. These releases are chosen by their in-house team and often showcase unusual cask finishes or expressions you won't find in a distillery's core range.

Technology & experience

MoM has invested heavily in its platform - the entire site is built in-house, giving them the flexibility to offer detailed filtering, flavour maps, and a smooth checkout. They maintain a 94% five-star rating on Trustpilot, reflecting a strong focus on customer experience and quick fulfilment.

Global reach

Master of Malt ships to over 50 countries, making it one of the most internationally accessible UK spirits retailers. Their catalogue, combined with worldwide delivery, has built a dedicated global following among spirits enthusiasts and collectors.
