Hard Truth Toasted Coconut Rum + Rum Cream

 

Hard Truth Toasted Coconut Rum...$23.99 / 750ml

Toasted Coconut Rum

Hard Truth Toasted Coconut Rum pairs our classic white rum with the deep, rich flavor of house-toasted flaked coconut, cane sugar, and natural sea salt for a balanced and versatile spirit that is delightful to drink on its own, or as the featured spirit in an island-inspired cocktail.

This Hard Truth is best served: in a tall glass of ice-cold lemonade; with a citrus hard seltzer; or with pineapple and orange juice in a Hard Truth Bahama Mama.

Hard Truth Toasted Coconut Rum Cream...$28.99 / 750ml

Wine Enthusiast Rating: 95 Points

Wine Enthusiast Top 100 Spirits for 2020

This Hard Truth is best served: over ice; in a shot with Hard Truth Cinnamon Vodka

Yellow Rose Distilling Outlaw Bourbon

 

Yellow Rose Distilling Outlaw Bourbon The Lou Single Barrel...$99.99 / 750ml

The Lou Single Barrel
#7005
116.5 proof

True to its name, this one breaks all the traditional bourbon laws. Made from 100% Texas yellow corn and aged in small American oak barrels right here in Houston. The 15-20 degree temperature swings in this part of Texas give our bourbon unique characteristics that can only be achieved here. In fact, our angel share is 15% per year, making our whiskey extremely rare and valuable to us.
Outlaw Bourbon is full-flavored with warm caramel and vanilla overtones. Our traditional pot still helps us produce a true small-batch whiskey. One sip and we think you’ll agree you’ve never had anything like it.

GlenAllachie 8 Year Old Scotch

 

GlenAllachie 8 Year Old Scotch...$55.99 / 700 ml

Great press for 2021 Cloudline Pinot Noir! A consistent best buy!

 

2021 Cloudline Pinot Noir...$18.99 / 750ml

Part of the Domaine Drouhin Oregon portfolio, the 2021 Pinot Noir from Cloudline is very easy to drink! Medium ruby-purple in the glass, it's scented of cranberries, blackberries and blueberries with touches of tar, mushroom and lavender. Light-bodied, soft and juicy, it offers generous, perfumed fruit and a long, floral finish. It's exported around the world and should be fairly easy to find.

Deschutes Tropical Fresh IPA

 

Deschutes Tropical Fresh IPA...$9.99 / 6pk 12oz cans
Sit back and relax as you let the waves of pineapple, citrus and mango wash over you. Close your eyes and you can hear the breeze rustling through the palm trees. An antidote to a hazy glow, we sought a bright and beautiful color as canvas to flaunt big tropical hops.

Hartford Court Seascape Chardonnay

2018 Hartford Court Seascape Chardonnay...$71.99
It needs a little coaxing to reveal restrained notes of lemon meringue pie, lime leaves, struck flint and wet pebbles with touches of coriander seed, orange blossoms and yuzu zest. Medium-bodied, the palate is very crisp, intense and pure with loads of citrus and stone-inspired flavors, finishing very long and zesty. This tight-knit beauty is going to be incredible in another year or two and will drink well for at least 10+ years. only 270 cases were made.
Rated 97/100 The Wine Advocate

Main and Mill Paddy Stash Irish Stout

Main and Mill Paddy Stash Irish Stout...$10.99 / 6pk 12oz cans
Irish Stout • 5.5%
May the beer rise up to meet your lips this St. Patrick’s Day. Straight from the Paddy Stash, a blend of dark malts and oats bring out notes of coffee and chocolate, with a balanced roast character and a dry finish characteristic of the Irish Stout style.

2021 Mac and Billy "M" Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon

Back in stock - this one sold fast!

WOW - 95 points from The Wine Advocate and under $30
2021 Mac and Billy "M" Paso Robles Cabernet Sauvignon...$26.99
I​ love this easy-to-drink 2021 Cabernet Sauvignon from McPrice Myers that well overdelivers for its price. Deep ruby-purple, it has alluring aromas of cassis, pencil shavings, dried herbs, leather and lavender, plus classy touches of oak spice. The full-bodied palate is concentrated and powerful without going over the top. It has abundant, grainy tannins, flinty streaks and plenty of refreshing acidity to carry the long finish. It's not your average chocolate bomb California Cabernet, despite its modest price tag.

A tradition was born. We knew we wanted to collaborate with our numerous brewer friends. While the brewery and stout may change from each release, the end result is always the same: a rich, full-bodied stouted whiskey.

2021 Damien Martin Pouilly Fuisse...$34.99
The Pouilly-Fuissé vines were planted in 1976 and this parcel of vines is in Vers Chânes in Fuissé. Fermented with indigenous yeasts. Fermented and matured 8 months on the fine lees in 1-4 year old French oak barrels. It’s at the top of the slope and produces a wine that is very rich, with notes of candied fruit and vanilla. This wine could easily pass for a Premier Cru White Burgundy at more than twice the price. Full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, bursting from the glass with a complex bouquet of crisp pear, citrus oil, wet stones, paraffin wax and toasted sesame, framed by a discreet touch of youthful reduction, it's full-bodied, layered and multidimensional, with incredible concentration and searing levels of dry extract. Structured and tightly wound, it's seamless and complete, concluding with a long, intensely mineral finish.
