Liquor Loot (formerly Whisky Loot)

What's in the box: Small tasting samples of whisky, gin or other spirits, such as five 30ml vials in a themed or mystery pack.

Liquor Loot, which started as Whisky Loot, is an Australian online spirits retailer known for small tasting samples. The site now reads more like a general liquor store than a pure subscription service. The homepage leads with advent calendars for whisky, gin, Japanese whisky and mixed spirits. Below those are themed gift packs, tasting packs, and full bottles of American and Australian whisky. There is a Subscriptions section in the main menu, and some products show a separate member price, so joining seems to unlock lower prices on parts of the range. The tasting packs matter most if you want a subscription. The gin and spirits mystery packs each contain five 30ml samples, which is a sensible way to try several spirits without buying full bottles. Themed packs cover Australian whisky, London dry gin and new world whisky. You should know the company's recent history before you sign up. It entered voluntary administration in March 2024 and Just Wines bought it in April 2024. The site is trading normally, but former customers should check how older memberships are handled now. Some product cards also show a sale price higher than the regular price, which is confusing, so check your cart total before paying.
