New Arrival: Douglas of Drumlanrig- “Laphroaig” 15 Year Single Malt

Hey all,
Independent Scotch bottlers are having an increasingly tough time finding quality lots of single malt. Older Laphroaig stocks are almost impossible. But that’s exactly what Douglas has accomplished here in their beautifully colored 15 year non-chill filtered Laphroaig single cask, which only produced 282 bottles. Got a chance to try this at Whiskies of the World Expo, and let me just say, holy cow! It’s smoky, earthy and minerally while being lush, caramely and creamy. An absolute winner start to finish, and one we may never see again. Get it while you can!
Currently at Both Castro and Clement St. Shops

New Arrivals: 1512 Bourbon – Distiller’s Private Reserve


Hey all,

Just got in the first California made bourbon to hit San Francisco! This is the first batch of bourbon from our friends over at 1512 Spirits in Sonoma. With only 128 bottles produced, we were lucky to score a few. It pours a deep mahogany with tones of ruby vermillion. The nose brings out round, sweet notes of rock candy and maple syrup combined with damp earth and oak. The palate brings more of the same, but the cherry-wood smoked barley becomes more prominent. Cherry-vanilla coke meets maple syrup and baking spices to create a symphony of lush sweetness leading into an earthy, round finish. The proof keeps the sweetness in check, while also contributing to the overall weight of the whiskey. Wildly innovative yet elegant and refined….. We’re looking forward to what these guys come up with next.

Cheers

Healthy Spirits: Bourbon Barrel Aged Moylan’s Old Blarney Barley Wine

We are happy to announce the arrival of the latest exclusive Healthy Spirits barrel aged beer! Moylan’s re-wet the Buffalo Trace barrel they used for our first ever barrel project (the Moylan’s Bourbon Imperial Stout) and aged their Old Blarney Barleywine in it for just over a year.

It’s very dry, with a faint woody bourbon/vanilla character and the slightest hint of brettanomyces funk. Though it is a touch boozy fresh, I think it will mellow beautifully with a year or so of cellar time.

This one was very limited, with only 10 total cases produced (120 bottles). It is available at both our Castro and Clement Street locations for $13.99 per bottle.
