A solid, bold bourbon at a great price, the Wild Turkey 101 is aged for about 6 to 8 years and bottled at 50.5% ABV. It is made at Wild Turkey Distillery in Anderson County near Lawrenceburg, KY.

Dunes & Greene Sparkling
$24.99
Here's a great tasting wallet friendly sparkling wine from Australia. Made from a blend of Chardonnay and Pinot Noir it shows delicate aromas of lemon zest, fresh strawberries and cream. On the palate, look for Chardonnay flavors of subtle citrus notes and fresh acidity. The Pinot Noir complements this by adding richness and texture. The result is a full flavoured sparkling wine with a refined finish. Enjoy with appetizers, seafood, Chinese takeout or just when you feel like some bubbles. Vegan friendly!
69% Pinot Noir, 31 % Chardonnay. 100% delicious.
Hoyne Dark Matter American Brown Ale Btl
$7.99
Dark Matter rides the line between a brown ale and porter. With a decently roasted character, filled with chocolate and nutty notes, but a body that is just a little light for a true porter. Either way, it's comforting as all heck.
Nikka Yoichi Single Malt
$91.99
The good old days of plentiful Yoichi 15 and 20 year seem to be long gone. Even this no age statement bottling is hard to come by. We are lucky to receive just a dozen bottles twice a year. 45%.
Producer Description
"This is a single malt from the Yoichi distillery, Nikka's first distillery built in 1934. The founder Masataka Taketsuru chose Yoichi in Hokkaido because of the similar environmental conditions to Scotland, where he learned whisky making. Yoichi single malt has pleasant peaty notes and smokiness originating from the traditional direct coal-fired distillation as well as a briny hint delivered by the sea breeze during the aging process."
Nikka Miyagikyo Single Malt
$91.99
We have been lucky to get a couple of dozen bottles of the Miyagikyo Single Malt, over the last few years allocations have been very tight. 45%. Hoping we see more of this single malt soon!
Producer Description
This is a single malt from the Miyagikyo distillery, Nikka's second distillery built in 1969. The founder Masataka Taketsuru chose this site in the mountains of Sendai to contrast with his first distillery, Yoichi, located in the coastal area. Using less peaty malt and distilled in a pot still heated by indirect steam, Miyagikyo single malt has an elegant fruitiness and a distinctive aroma with a strong Sherry cask influence."
Talisker Port Ruighe
$119.99
Bottled at 45.8% from whisky matured in ex-Bourbon barrels and finished in Ruby Port casks.
Producer Tasting Note
Nose: Instant, very well balanced, and sweet, yet not cloying; overall, rather like the sweet smokiness of a fading wood fire with the fruity richness of ripe plums.
Palate: Sublime, smoky and savoury: spicy pepper rapidly grows into peatiness, as a creamy smokiness mingles with spice and dark fruits.
Finish: Long, memorable, and mouth-filling, leaving on the tongue an appealing and intense cocoa-rich drying smokiness.
Distiller's Description: "Double matured in port casks, this malt is a toast to the Scottish traders who braved the high seas and were instrumental in the foundation of the port wine trade. Port Ruighe, pronounced ‘Portree’ is the Gaelic spelling of the once-bustling trading port on Skye. The port finish combines Talisker’ s powerful maritime character with succulent sweet notes of rich berry fruits for a superb taste experience."
Chateau Megyer Dry Furmint
$28.99
Hungary is famous for its sweet wines, but the country's winemakers also make beautiful dry table wines, too, such as this one. Furmint is the grape here, and while it's a common one in Hungary, it's not one we see often in Canada. Here's your chance to try it at a great price! Its dry furmint wines are only recently beginning to attract the same attention. Floral, candy and fruity notes make this one a standout; it will pair well with rich dishes such as sole or lobster with butter.
Castarede Armagnac 1976
$289.99
If you are looking to gift somebody a birthyear bottle of something they can either drink now or hold onto as long as they want, Castarède Armagnac should be considered.
The Armagnac House Castarède was founded in 1832 and remains in the same family to this day. It is now headed by Florence Castarede, who is the sixth generation of the Castarède family in charge of the Armagnac house. Castarède has an impressive selection of vintages still available, with consecutive vintages from 2003 back to the 1890s.
The vineyards are in the heart of the Bas-Armagnac region and are planted with a variety of grapes: Folle Blache, Colombard and Saint-Emillion. Castarede Armagnacs then get aged in black oak barrels in the family's ancient cellars, before a little bit finds its way to Canada for fans like us!
