Year: 2013
Hey all,
This is it. The last shipment of Singleton 12 year we’ll see in the US for some time, possibly permanently. The story goes that about a year and a half ago the owners of the Singleton brand had to make a tough decision, keep Singleton available globally and have lots of outages or pick a region or two that sells it best and make it only available there. They decided on the later and made it only available in their top market, Asia. The 750ml bottles were immediately pulled from the US and the product hasn’t been available since. Some how, much to our good fortune, a few cases of 1 liter bottles got lost at the distributor’s warehouse. We were able to secure those few precious lost cases and now have the beautifully balanced yet remarkably well priced 12 year gems on our shelves. Singleton has a little more oak than your average 12 year single malt and an impressive sea air/briny characteristic that really sets it apart. Get these while you can, $55.99 each. Cheers
Available at both shops!

Hey all,
Got a small allocation of St. George Lot 13 today, definitely one of the best single malts in the country. What’s most interesting to me about this line is the use of such a wide range of barrels, from pear brandy barrels to tequila barrels, wine barrels and whiskey barrels. Anything is fair game. And its one of the most unique single malts you’ll ever try with notes of white florals, stewed fruits, cereal grains, toasted pecans and wild flower honey. Get it while you can. Cheers

I’ll keep this short and sweet folks,
Holy shnikies! Just when you think you’ve seen the last of something, it seemingly falls from the skies above. That’s right, Michter’s 10yr Single Barrel Bourbon is back for a limited time! In case your memory needs jogging, Michter’s is known for surpassing expectations with their age-stated whiskeys. This 10yr release has the depth and character of a 15 or 16yr old bourbon, and most likely contains juice of that age. No way of knowing for sure, of course, but by golly if my palate isn’t in heaven. This sauce is easily some of the best bourbon available right now, up there with the most anticipated releases of the year… Don’t wait for the holidays to snatch this up!
Available at both shops!
cheers,
