Aveleda is a large operation churning out big volumes of Vinho Verde, but despite its size, the wines remain consistently good and offer exceptional value.

Thanks to the Cuban Revolution, it's no longer made in Cuba; it's now made in the Dominican Republic. A molasses-based rum, it's a dark-gold colour with delicious notes of vanilla, toasted sugar and banana.

Glenkinchie Distillers Edition

Its medium-hard water flows from the nearby Lammermuir Hills and is said to contribute to its dry, complex flavor.

Producer Description
"Named Best Spirit in the World in the Spirit Journal, on two separate occasions, the intense balance of the flavours found in VIKING PRIDE owes everything to our five traditional keystones of production, honoured for over 220 years. Slow-burning, aromatic peat from Hobbister Moor; hand turned floor maltings, Sherry seasoned European oak casks, cool maturation in our temperate island climate and a long and unhurried harmonisation process. Like our founder, Magnus Eunson, we share our Viking ancestors’ commitment to skilled craftsmanship as well as their proud, independent spirit."
Highland Park, the northernmost of Scotland's distilleries, dates back to 1798. Definitely an island style with typical smokiness, but with elements of a classic single malt that include a smoothness, roundness and heather-honey accent all its own. Very capable of developing to great ages, the distillery is now making available some older vintages which display considerable depth and richness. Consistently one of the best single malts in the world. Heather & honey on the nose, w/ hints of sap, peat, smoke & fresh oak. Lightly salty on the palate with layers of flavor. Amazing finish.
Argiano Rosso di Montalcino
$54.99
Argiano is thought to be an ancient place where wise men searched for Ara Jani, the legendary altar of the roman god Janus. We don't know if they found the altar, but we found this terrific red from the same place! A red with a noble pedigree, Argiano's Rosso features an aromatic profile of herbs, leather, cherries, and underbrush. Round and richly fruity with a lush follow through. Serve with cheese.
Hoegaarden
$23.99
Hoegaarden is named after the village in which it was first brewed, a small town in the wheat-growing Brabant farmlands close to Leuven in Belgium. Its origins date back to 1445 and it is generally regarded as the original classic of its style. This well-known wheat beer pours a hazy yellow with a white head. The nose is fruity, with hints of banana, citrus, wheat, coriander, and light pepper. The flavour is light wheat with a little banana, yeast and light spice. A refreshing summer drinker.
