Every year where bottles are due to you as part of your Founders' Club membership, you will be prompted to decide whether to collect your edition, or have it dispatched to the address on your account. Please see below for frequently asked questions.
What address is my bottle going to?
Your bottle/s will be posted to the delivery address as set on your online account as of 30 September 2022. To see the address on your record, please log in to your online account using the email associated with your Founders' membership. Once you log in, you should see your Founders Account number displayed just below your name. If you can’t see this, of if you don't know what email address to log in with, please contact us at customercare@lakesdistillery.com.
Navigate to ‘Address Book’. If you have more than one address on record, please name your selected address with "Founders Delivery" in the "Address Description" field so we know which address you would like it to be sent.
If you have any issues with setting your address, please contact us customercare@lakesdistillery.com.
Can I collect my bottle?
You can collect your bottle at the distillery provided you registered to do so before 30 September 2022. Any bottles that are collected on site will be signed by our Founder, Paul Currie. Your bottle will be available for pre-arranged collection times at the Founders' Weekend on the Friday 4th or Saturday 5th November.
If you'd like to collect your bottle after this time, please email customercare@lakesdistillery.com with your requested date and membership details. If you have not registered to collect your bottle but would like to do so, please contact us as soon as possible at customercare@lakesdistillery.com and we will do all we can to help.

How do I know my bottle(s) have been sent?
You will receive an email directly from our courier DPD when your bottle is dispatched, so keep an eye out in your email inbox. Please do check your spam and junk files too.
When can I expect delivery?
If you’ve chosen to have your bottle delivered, it will be dispatched in batches from mid-October by our carrier, DPD. This project may take up to 6 weeks to complete. We respectfully request some patience during this time, as the logistics of organising the delivery of thousands of very valuable bottles cannot be underestimated.
What if I'm going on holiday?
Then we hope you have a fantastic time. We simply request that you kindly let us know that you would like to delay the dispatch of your bottle and when it will be safe to send it to you. Please contact us at customercare@lakesdistillery.com or call 017687 88850 and we’ll do our best to send it after your holiday.
Who is the courier?
All UK and Ireland deliveries are made with our courier, DPD. International deliveries will be made separately and one of our team will be in touch with you to organise postage with you directly.
How do I track my parcel?
When your bottle is dispatched, you will receive an email with a tracking number from DPD. Track your parcel using this website address: https://track.dpd.co.uk/
What if I'm not in when it's delivered?
You'll receive a pre-delivery notification from DPD, with 'in-flight' options to leave with a neighbour, safe place (at your risk) or attempt a re-delivery. If you have received a dispatch email but no card through the door, or unsuccessful delivery notification within 72 hrs, call us on 017687 88850 and we will look into this for you.
I haven't received my bottle or a 'missed delivery' card yet?
If you haven't received your bottle by the end of November, then please contact us at customercare@lakesdistillery.com or call 017687 88850 and we will give you an update.
What if my item is damaged?
We make every attempt to ensure your parcel arrives in excellent condition.
We can arrange a replacement box if needed. If your bottle is damaged, we will do our best to replace or fix the bottle. To request this, please email images of the damaged box or bottle to customercare@lakesdistillery.com or call 017687 88850.
If you have any other questions or queries about your Founder’s Year 7 bottle release, then, please contact one of our team at customercare@lakesdistillery.com or call 017687 88850
