How to gift an e-book

  1. Choose the e-book and pay

    On the book page, choose the e-book and language edition. Enter your own e‑mail address when ordering, then pay.

  2. The link arrives by e‑mail

    It is valid for 30 days and for up to five downloads.

  3. Pass it on

    Forward the link to the person you are giving it to. Or download the EPUB file, send them the file and delete your own copy.

One purchase is a gift for one person. You may pass the e-book on once, provided you keep no copy yourself. It is then theirs for personal use and is not shared further.

What the recipient needs

  • Phone or tabletAn app that reads EPUB files.
  • ComputerA reading program for EPUB files.
  • E-readerAny reader that supports EPUB.
  • KindleThrough Amazon’s Send to Kindle.

The recipient does not need an account with us. They download the EPUB file and open it in a compatible reading app or e-reader. For Kindle, use Amazon’s Send to Kindle service.

Make it feel like a present

Choose one of these simple ways to make your gift personal.

  • Write a card by hand. Name the book and say in one line why you chose it for them. Hand the card over and send the link the same day.
  • Add a bottle of wine or olive oil. Plavac Mali would suit the theme. We sell only the book, so buy any extras separately. Find more Croatian gift ideas.
  • Plan a meal together. Choose a recipe to cook together, such as sea bass in a salt crust.

E-book or printed book?

E-book: a download link by e‑mail

  • The download link arrives by e‑mail, so there is nothing to wrap or post.
  • The file carries the order number and the order date, never the price.
  • Travels in a pocket, with winery addresses and GPS coordinates at hand on the trip.

Printed book: if you still have time

  • Comes by post, so it needs time to reach you.
  • On request, both authors sign it and write your dedication by hand.
  • Published in Czech, English, German and Croatian.

Something to unwrap: the printed book, signed on request. The book page shows whether your edition is in stock.

Can you gift an e-book from any shop?

Before buying from another shop, check its gifting terms.

Our e-book is an EPUB file for one recipient’s personal use.

Frequently asked questions

Can you send an e-book as a gift?

Yes. Enter your own e‑mail address when ordering, then forward the download link. Or send the EPUB file and delete your own copy.

When does the e-book arrive?

We e‑mail the download link as soon as the file for the order is ready, usually within a few minutes of payment.

Can I buy a Kindle book for someone else as a gift?

Not from us: our e-book is not a Kindle Store purchase. It is an EPUB file, and a Kindle owner adds it to their library through Send to Kindle.

Can I pass on an e-book I bought?

Ours, yes, once: to one person, and you keep no copy. It is for their personal use.

Does the recipient need an account?

Not with us. They need a device or an app that reads EPUB files.

Will they see what I paid?

No. We add only the order number and the order date to the file, on the opening page and in the colophon. The price, your name and your e‑mail address are not in it.

Do I have to print anything?

No. Just send the download link or EPUB file. Add a personal message if you like.
