Whisky.de opens its doors

How does the whisky you order actually get from our warehouse to your doorstep? In this section, we take you on a virtual tour and show you step by step how we process your order.

Join us in our offices, where new orders arrive every day, and take a look at our well-stocked warehouse with thousands of bottles of whisky, rum and gin. See how your selection is carefully packed before it travels with DHL. Finally, see how your parcel finds its way to you at the distribution centre.

Discover the complete journey of your whisky - from clicking the mouse in the shop to opening the parcel at home.

But that wasn't always the case!

Everyone starts small. The success story of Whisky.de began in 1993 in the basement of Theresia and Horst Lüning's home. With the development of the mail order business on the Internet, the triumph of high-quality single malt whisky and, of course, a lot of hard work and dedication, Whisky.de grew steadily over the years. At this point, we invite you to take a look at the old premises:

This is how the company developed

Since its foundation in the basement of a residential building in 1993, there have been several relocations and many changes. In 2002, the time had come for the first time. Whisky.de had grown so much that the small cellar was bursting at the seams. We therefore moved into a 1,000 square metre warehouse and shipping hall.

The popularity of single malt whisky grew steadily and Whisky.de continued to increase its sales, so that in 2012 there was once again not enough space in the dispatch hall.

We searched intensively for a solution. Should we build bigger again? After much deliberation, we decided in favour of a logistics service provider who would gradually take over the entire process, from warehousing to the delivery of the packed parcels. In 2013, we converted the space we had freed up in our old hall into new offices. Because we were already sitting close together there too. In the meantime, all processes have been optimised and we can now ship your whisky to you even faster and safely as usual.

Then, in 2021, the time had come again. We were looking for a logistics provider that could operate centrally and give us the opportunity to send our parcels to customers within one day. So our entire warehouse moved once again – to the vicinity of Nuremberg.
