Delivering to the UK
Important information for web customers in the UK (please read before placing your order)
Orders and deliveries will only be processed on working postal days, so please take this into consideration when ordering during a holiday period. If you need your parcel by a certain day, please email info@coolchile.co.uk or phone us on 0208 969 5640 to discuss it and we’ll do our best to accommodate you.
Please remember we do not have our own delivery service and use third party couriers. You are expected to manage your own delivery once it is shipped. Notifications will come from us, the courier and or the distribution center - Redpanda. These may go in the junk, please keep an eye out. You are expected to be home for your delivery. We will help in anyway you can but they are a beast of their own accord.
An order cannot be split into more than one delivery. If an order contains an item we are expecting soon, we will wait for this item to arrive before we send the order out in total.
Fresh products: Fresh tortillas and fresh chillies etc
Our tortillas are a fresh product and therefore need refrigeration upon receipt to achieve their full shelf life. We have a shelf life of 10 days from the date of manufacture, however, the shelf life you receive will be dependent on where you live and when they are sent (please see below).
Tortillas are packed in a modified atmosphere, allowing 4 - 5 days out of refrigeration whilst in the postal system.
Tortillas may be frozen upon receipt for 1 month.
Please order ambient tortillas if there is not enough shelf life on the fresh tortillas for your needs.
Please see below for the remaining shelf life information for fresh tortillas:

Delivery to Europe
Important information for web customers in Europe (please read before placing your order)
Please see the delivery countries we are currently shipping to in the table below. Brexit is an issue and shipping to Europe is not an exact science, times may vary and there may be import duty and further charges or your country! Cool Chile will not be liable for any additional fees.
Products that have increased duty now are chillies (whole, diced or powdered), herbs (oregano, epazote, avocado leaves), hibiscus, chocolate... these may be liable to VAT too!
Tortillas, beans, masa harina, and sauces seem to be having an ok time in Europe, but again we are no experts!
Due to skyrocketing prices in the shipping, we will not be sending any replacements! If there are any issues with your order we will only refund the product at a maximum.
Ambient Tortillas: these tortillas have preservatives allowing them to be out of the fridge for 20 days. We only send Ambient Tortillas for European orders as the postal system is taking too long to deliver the Fresh Tortillas.
