Bodega Astobiza Rose
$27.99
Astobiza is situated within the Txakoli de Álava DO, and the wines are made exclusively with grapes produced from the estate. The vineyard is located in the small rural municipality of Oquendo, in the province of Álava, about 30 minutes from Bilbao, on a 10-hectare estate divided into 7 micro-plots. Located 250 meters above sea level, it is protected by mountains and far from the bottom of the valley, thus sheltering it from fog and winter frost. 100% of their grapes come from autochthonous varieties, mainly Ondarrabi Zuri, some Ondarrabi Zuri Zerratie (Petit Corbu), and a small plot of Izkiriota (also known as Gros Manseng).
Smokehead Terminado Islay Single Malt
$105.99
The latest Smokehead line extension is Terminado, a Tequila cask finished Islay single malt, reputedly from Ardbeg, bottled at 43%.
Producer Description
"Terminado brings together Smokehead Islay single malt with tequila. It’s the meeting of two restless spirits – and the awakening of a mesmerising whisky. There, in this tequila cask finish, fiery peat awakes with wild agave. Smoke mixes with chewy meringue. And citrus spins with sweetness. You ain’t tasted nothing like this before."
Great Plains 22 Year Cognac Finish
$139.99
Producer Note: "This is the very first batch that we acquired at the beginning of our journey into the whisky business. The bond year of this batch is 2000 and continues to finish in Cognac barrels. It’s pretty great, but the brandy finished stuff was ready ahead of time. So we’re letting this batch sit bit longer and now it’s ready for a partial release."
Batch 1 was created by marrying three single casks of 100% corn whisky from the lost Potters distillery. It spent 17 years in ex-Bourbon barrels before being re-racked for 5 years in 25 year old Cognac barrels from Charente, France.

Confluence Amethyst Spice Gin
$41.99
Utilizing the magic of the Butterfly Peaflower, the Detour Amethyst Gin from Confluence changes its hue depending on the PH of the cocktail it is used in. Other ingredients used include lavender, elderflower, blueberry and grains of paradise.
Wolfburn Northland Single Malt
$83.99
Matured in American Oak quarter casks. Ex-Islay casks, at that. And we all know who uses quarter casks on Islay, right? Northland is sort of the flagship expression in the Wolfburn range, and quite a dcent 'hopping on' point.
Natural colour, non-chill filtered, and bottled at 46% abv
Fahr Copper Singles
$2.99
Last Best Tokyo Drift IPA Singles
$5.09
Sliding around corners near you at 7.2% ABV, this Turbocharged IPA may not fit in with the rest of the franchise's sequels, but at least isn't a Pontiac Fiero flying in space. It does its own stunts and is bold, tropical, and definitely not stock thanks to the use of aftermarket mods such as Galaxy, Mosaic, Ella, Citra, and Simcoe hops.
New Riff 6yr Malted Rye Whiskey
$139.99
New Riff's fantastic Rye releases typically use a mash bill of 95% Unmalted Rye and 5% Malted Rye. This malted Rye Whiskey changes it up quite a bit by using 100% Malted Rye in the mash. It also carries a stated age of 6 Years Old.
From The Producer
"New Riff Distilling is pleased to introduce a new, regular extension to their award winning lineup: New Riff Straight Malted Rye Whiskey Bottled in Bond Without Chill Filtration. This style of whiskey is made of 100% malted rye grain, which is quite rare, even in today’s craft distilling scene. Malted rye is rye grain that has undergone the process of malting. When you malt a grain you alter and, arguably, improve and refine its flavor. That’s exactly what’s happened here, as the typically spicy flavor of rye becomes polished, refined, and subtle.
New Riff Malted Rye is elegant. Graceful. It presents plenty of spice but in a much more sophisticated fashion than our standard 95% rye. It actually makes more sense to us to think of it as a malted whiskey first, and a rye whiskey second. At a generous six years old, our New Riff Malted Rye Bottled in Bond Without Chill Filtration is the oldest New Riff whiskey yet released, and will remain at six years as something of an exclamation point atop our standard portfolio."
