You can legally order pipe tobacco and cigars on the internet in the US without showing ID. When I was a kid you could do it with wine too, and I doubt that's changed. I don't find it to be a problem.


Depends on the state. You absolutely cannot order alcohol online in Kentucky


buywinesonline.com (random retailer I found) says they do

Buy Wines Online currently does not ship alcohol to AL, MI, MS, UT, HI, AK

Says it requires an "adult signature" but anyone who's signed for fedex/ups knows they don't check your ID. I can say, when I was in high school, they did not check...


Kentucky has some weird laws. You can ship, but only if the distillery makes less than so many gallons of stuff per year


There is a wide gulf between ‘your county sheriff will get angry if they find out’ and ‘UPS/Fedex will not deliver it in a nondescript brown box’.
