Frequently Asked Questions

Curbside Pickup allows you to order items from the Buffalo Trace Distillery website and we’ll bring them out to your car when you arrive at the designated pickup parking spaces at the Distillery.

Curbside Pickup is available for items specifically identified as Curbside Pickup only. Please look for Curbside Pickup in the item name or shop the Curbside Pickup page. 

1. Shop Curbside Pickup eligible items and place your order. Please place a separate order if you wish to have items shipped to your home.
2. We’ll let you know when your order is ready for curbside pickup - Approximately two business days from the time your order is placed. Your payment method will be charged at the time of purchase.  If for some reason, you are unable to pick up your order, a refund will be issued. When you're ready to head to the Distillery, gather your ID confirming your age and your order number. Only the person who placed the order is permitted to pick it up. Tip: Add Giftshop@buffalotrace.com to your safe senders list. 
3. Drive up & wait safely in your car. Once you arrive at the Distillery, follow the signs to the Curbside Pickup checkpoint. A Distillery team member will verify your name and age with your ID. In an effort to maintain proper social distancing and safety, we will either place your order in your trunk/back of your vehicle or set it on a table for you to pick up and carry to your vehicle. 

Once you have placed your order you will receive a confirmation email. If you do not receive this shortly after placing an order, please make sure to check any junk or spam filters as some inboxes may mistakenly direct your confirmation there.

At this time we do not have advance notice of when additional inventory will become available, so unfortunately, we cannot provide you with any information regarding when an item will be back in stock. Please check back daily to see if the item you are looking for has come back into stock as the store is updated daily as inventory is received.
