Nothing extraordinary whether for the cheese or the sauce which is ultimately better to cook yourself ...

I ordered from Kanata for my wedding in France with an autumn/Canada theme (I live in Quebec) I wanted 105 bottles. When I looked on the site I saw there was a promotion, 1 sausage for a purchase over 80€ with free shipping. I contacted Kanata because I was going to spend over 600€ and wanted to know if I would be entitled to one sausage for every 80€ spent or if I had to make several purchases of 80€ or more. I received a response 2 days later indicating that the promotion was over, to which I replied that at the time of my message it was not. My cart had been pending for 2 days and I received a reminder with a 10% coupon. Thanks to my partner's work, we also got 10%. In the end, I ordered 500€ worth of maple syrup bottles and received 1 bottle as a gift... So the product, design, packaging, and delivery were all perfect and it's a 5/5, however, the commercial aspect was disappointing (1/5). I still expected a commercial gesture. I still recommend it because there are many products and promotions.

Response from Kanata
Hello, Regarding the promotion on sausages, as mentioned, it was valid while stocks lasted. When you contacted us on Sunday, our offices were closed. We took care to respond to you as soon as we reopened on Monday morning. Furthermore, although the promotion on sausages was no longer applicable at that time, you still benefited from a total discount of 117.71€ on your order. We also provided you with the discount code. Additionally, although delivery should normally have been made to a pickup point, we took care to deliver it personally to your mother's home. We believe we did what was necessary on our part, as the significant discount and home delivery constitute, in our eyes, an important commercial gesture. We want to emphasize that we take special care to satisfy our customers and respond to their requests as quickly as possible. We are delighted that the quality of our products, their design, packaging, and delivery fully satisfied you. Best regards, The Kanata team

I ordered cheese curds which was shipped frozen but arrived 5 days after. What good is it to ship frozen cheese for it to defrost while in transit and be left in a mail box where the cheese sits warm for a long time. I pretty much threw my money in the garbage.

Response from Kanata
Hello, We have received your message. We just wanted to warn you that all information about the product and its shipment is detailed on our website. (here is the link of the product page https://www.kanata.fr/fromage-a-poutine-shouik-shouik-500g-1761-.html) It is clearly stated that the cheese becomes unfrozen at the start of the transit and needs to be eaten 3-4 days after shipping (and notified on the packaging of the cheese). I remain at your disposal, Emilie from KANATA

Bug in the delivery address at the order validation. No one answers the Chat. Delivery time does not match reality (if the time is different during holidays/holidays, please indicate it). Unable to change the password of my old account, I had to create a new account.
Translated reviews
Response from Kanata
Hello, indeed, there was a malfunction, but we corrected it as soon as we saw your message via chat so that your package could be delivered to the desired pickup point. The delivery time was respected, your package was delivered in 24 hours on business days (excluding weekends and public holidays) as indicated on our site. Your old account was a guest account, that's why. I am at your disposal for further discussion. Best regards, Emilie

Response from Kanata
Hello, We have received your message. However, we do not understand your feedback. Indeed, you ordered a maple whisky liqueur, so your comment is not related to this product. ("French size small.

Nothing to say about the ordered products: I know the quality of this brand. However, I am particularly unhappy with the condition of the cardboard box of one of the two bottles of Ice Cider Neige. Indeed, the bottom of one of the boxes is completely damaged or even properly crushed. Even if the bottle is intact, this item was packaged in this lamentable state by the shipping service of Kanata because the package was in impeccable condition!
This is a gift I was supposed to give for Christmas but given the dilapidated state of the packaging, I find it hard to give this bottle to someone.
In any case, this is the first and last purchase made from this store.

Response from Kanata
Hello Nicolas. I personally renew my apologies to you. I was the one who prepared your order... It seems that your package decided to rebel at the moment I was sealing it. While closing the ears of the box, I damaged the packaging of the ice cider bottle. My colleagues in shipping take great care of the packages, but I certainly got a bit too enthusiastic while lending a hand. I remain at your disposal, ready to ensure that your future orders are much more peaceful. (I promise, I will blacklist myself from preparing your packages) P.S.: I can send you a packaging for your bottle if you wish. Best wishes!

Hello to the team it's not against you, but against Chronopost they are not serious and should perhaps monitor their employees a little more. Because the package from December 10 I did not receive, because they lost it. But for Kanata, a big thank you for your seriousness. You reacted well by sending me another package, which is not complete but I understand because there were stock shortages in the meantime. But during the end of year celebrations, it's understandable the products are so good congratulations to all of you. Happy holidays to the team.

Response from Kanata

We are glad to have been able to react quickly by sending you another package, even if it was not complete due to temporary stock shortages. We are pleased that despite these unforeseen events, you enjoyed our products. We would like to thank you for your understanding and support. Best wishes! Emilie

Response from Kanata
Hello, Thank you for your feedback. On the product sheet, we clearly mention that our poutine kit is frozen and should not be refrozen and that it should be consumed quickly. For your next order, feel free to choose a frozen delivery to give you more time to consume the cheese. Best wishes! Emilie

The products are very good and the prices are interesting.
The issue is the packaging. On one of my 2 orders, I received a package that was perfect on the outside but inside, the packets of cookies had been forced in.
No possibility to protest the sales conditions require opening the package at the parcel relay. This is something no one does with a package that is perfect on the outside

Thank you for your feedback and understanding I will pass it on to the shipping department to find a packaging solution regarding the cookies Have a nice day

Indication mask on the fact that it is frozen, as well as on the following expiration date.
While it is marked on the bag that it is pasteurized cheese...
Although the sauce is good, the proposed quantities are just way too large considering the expiration date...

The package never arrived at the drop-off center proposed by Kanata. The refund was made as soon as it returned to Kanata. Kanata assured me that they are not responsible for the transport service, I disagree because it is indeed the sender who chose the carrier and trusts them.

An increasingly rich site... some tabs are becoming difficult to 'join'. Thank you for the content, but the ergonomics of the submenus could be improved. It's the price of success in a way? We still love you, but please make a little effort on this point, if possible!

This is the second time I order and it's the second time that one item is changed without informing me and that I paid for!!
I sent 2 complaint emails on the site recently and received no response.
I am still waiting for the Metal moose on The loose plaque to this day as I never received it and I paid. It's a Christmas gift!!!
On my first order, it was an amber flint that I never received!!!

Mixed review. I must say that the delivery by Chronopost brings down the score given that with a delay of 96 hours I requested a cancellation and a refund of my order to see as it has not been done to this day

Happy with the quality of the team but on the other hand the product received (Sortilège whisky 750cl) was leaking. The bottle in a horizontal position lets a very slight amount of whisky flow out making the bottle sticky. While the bottle is new, unopened with the plastic sealing the cork. Already losing product, it's borderline when giving a gift.

bad surprise, I picked up the poutine directly upon arrival at the relay and the cheese was hot with liquid, even though it wasn't a fresh delivery, the product sent frozen should have still been cold upon arrival!!! I was told that customer service would be notified and since then silence.
