While not a commercial meadery, I do work at a retail wine/spirit store. We use FedEx to ship all over the country as well as internationally. Out of the thousands of packages we shipped last year, I think we only had one or two breakage problems when shipping to Germany.

I'm not sure on the competitive pricing of the two services, but FedEx rates seem reasonable to me.

Hope that helps.

Thank you. Any advice how to obtain a Fedex's Licence for wine shipping?

From what I can tell, you don't need a FedEx permit, you need a permit with the TTB (if you plan on shipping to the US...might be different laws elsewhere).

I found this on the TTB website about importing alcohol.

Also just found this link on FedEx's website.

Thanks for pointing that part of the TTB website out, maybe this is a little off topic but this part here is about importing for personal use which could be of interest to those of you (I'd say "us" but I'm in Canada ) who might want to buy direct...
