Old Potrero Single Barrel Straight Rye

In stock and open to taste --
people that tasted it loved it!  We sold over 60 bottles already yesterday alone

Exciting discovery! GREAT PRICE!
While doing an inventory audit, Old Potrero found an almost 7 year old single barrel bottled and hidden away in their warehouse.   Since we have done a number of single barrels with them, they offered it to us.  We jumped at the opportunity to grab this amazing barrel!   We scored it at a great price too, only $45 a bottle while their current single barrels all sell for $80 or more!!!

This will count as a TWCP Single barrel - so double points for the raffles.  I guess we did not officially pick this barrel, but it picked us!!!



Old Potrero Single Barrel Straight Rye....$44.99
129.62 proof
  • Barreled: 2/12/14
  • Bottled: 10/12/20
  • Cask #25
  • Age: 6 years 8 mos.
  • Pot Distilled
  • 100% malted rye mash bill


Even though the label says 4 years 6 months, but it is almost a 7 year old!!
"In regards to the age, our old Single Barrel Packaging all just said 4 years 6 months because that was the youngest we’d ever release and they created a label that would just be a catch all for all barrels. The label was made before barrel programs were prominent and didn’t consider all the information that consumers wanted to know about barrel selections." - Old Potrero

Ardbeg 17 Year Old Islay Single Malt Committee Exclusive



Ardbeg 17 Year Old Islay Single Malt Committee Exclusive....$199.99
80 proof
Released over 25 years ago in 1997, 17 Years Old was one of the first bottles to leave the Distillery after reopening. Unusually delicate, yet unmistakably Ardbeg, this whisky found a place in the hearts of the Committee, and set an extraordinary standard for our future.
Retired in 2004, Ardbeggians thought that was the last they’d see it. But, while times have been moving quietly on, its return has been years in the making. Dr Bill Lumsden has meticulously crafted this release to mirror the original, retracing the flavour profile note by note, and choosing to bottle at 40% strength, just as it was back then.

2022 Ridge Lytton Springs 50th Anniversary




Iconic wine -- 50th Anniversary
2022 Ridge Lytton Springs 50th Anniversary...$55.99
The 2022 Lytton Springs 50th Anniversary is composed of 67% Zinfandel, 19% Petite Sirah, 11% Carignane and 3% Alicante Bouschet. It opens with initial touches of glossy new American oak—dill and toasted coconut—and gives way to kaleidoscopic black and red plums, cherries and berries, plus accents of hibiscus and potpourri. The full-bodied palate features generous, spicy flavors. It’s structured by abundant, powdery tannins and lively acidity and has a long, detailed finish. Winemaker Shauna Rosenblum says this 2022 was crafted using only American oak, a shift from the blend of French and American oak used in the past. It has resulted in a particularly pure, transparent expression that opens dramatically with air, and this 2022 Lytton Springs will benefit from several years in the cellar.
Rated 94/100 The Wine Advocate
This is the kingpin of Ridge’s Sonoma County heritage blends and it doesn’t disappoint. Equal parts fruity, spicy and savory on a full body braced by moderate tannins. Judicious oak spices like cedar and cigar box complement pure, ripe blackberries and raspberries and a dash of black pepper. Known to age well for decades. Drinkable now, but best from 2030.

Flory's Truckle Cheese

 Come by any of our locations to grab some of this amazing cheese!


Flory's Truckle Clothbound Cheddar...$24.99/lb

Truckle is the old English word for a cylinder shape. Traditionally, most Old World cheddars are formed into truckles, not blocks, hence the name and shape of this cheddar.

In Jamesport, Missouri, the Flory family crafts approximately 50 truckles a day from the raw milk of their 30 Jersey cows. The truckles are bandaged in cheese cloth, coated in lard, and aged on wooden shelves for 60 days before traveling to Iowa’s Milton Creamery, the same farm that crafts our best-selling cheese, Prairie Breeze, where they continue to mature for least 12 months. Along with its firm, crunchy texture, Flory’s Truckle packs a truckload of flavor. It is sharp, meaty, salty, and sweet - like the cheese-version of bacon. 
Perfect for winter cheese boards!

Siempre Tequila Exclusivo Muerte

In stock now



Siempre Tequila Exclusivo Muerte....$124.99
Introducing Siempre Exclusivo Muerto, the latest ultra-limited release in Siempre’s Exclusivo series, crafted for those who seek the extraordinary. Co-founder Alex Lacroix and Master Tequilero Sergio Cruz (of the renowned Vivanco family distillery, NOM 1414) have pushed the boundaries of traditional tequila production, delivering an experience unlike anything seen in modern tequila.

Muerto embarks on a world-first journey by allowing the yeast to die, evolve, and rest over a three-week “afterlife,” building complexity much like the malolactic fermentation found in the finest rums. The process is enhanced by the Mozart method, playing classical music during fermentation, which helps deepen the connection between agave and yeast.

Two Distinctive Batches:
  • Batch One: Agave from the Puerta de la Carreta fields, wild-fermented for 28 days.
  • Batch Two: Agave from Capulin Verde, wild-fermented with fibers for 32 days.

These batches are combined at still-strength, filtered through volcanic rocks, and bottled at a powerful 109 proof without dilution. The result is a rich, bold tequila with layered complexity, perfect for aficionados who appreciate the raw, unfiltered expression of artisanal tequila.


Only 4,500 bottles available, offering a rare chance to experience the afterlife of tequila.
