The very pinnacle of Irish whiskey, Bushmills Single Malt Whiskey 21 year old is aged for a minimum of 19 years in former Oloroso Sherry and bourbon-seasoned casks, then married and transferred into Madeira casks for a further 2 years of aging and maturation. Awarded ‘Best Irish Single Malt 2013’ and a rare 96 points from Whisky Advocate.
Rated 96/100 Whisky Advocate


2024 Cask Strength Limited Edition
Bunnahabhain 21 Year Old Cask Strength Single Malt Scotch...$429.99
21 Year Old Pedro Ximénez Cask Finish
Sherried, Honeyed and Unpeated
ABV 53.6%
Oloroso and Pedro Ximénez
A robust Cask Strength 21 Year Old that spent most of its life maturing in ex-Oloroso Sherry butts before a long 21-month finish in Pedro Ximénez casks.
Only 2,682 bottles produced
Twenty-one carefully chosen casks were selected for this exclusive twenty-one-year-old release, inspired by the unfiltered, straight-from-the-cask tastings enjoyed by visitors in our distillery’s iconic coastal warehouses. This single malt highlights the expertise of Master Blender, Julieann Fernandez, who meticulously balanced the influence of the casks with the integrity of the original spirit. The Pedro Ximénez casks lend rich, sweet notes without overshadowing the whisky's character, creating a harmonious blend of spirit and wood.

Dewar's Double Double 21 Year Old Magma Stone...$129.99 / 750ml
Toasted French Oak, Level 3

Dewar’s Double Double 21 Year Old Stone Toasted Magma French Oak (Level 3) is the latest masterstroke of innovation and craft in the Double Double collection. Crafted with the unique Dewar’s four-stage ageing process, this expression is aged a minimum of 21 years for impeccable smoothness. However, it is the final step in its creation that imparts its most significant characteristics.
During final finishing, the whisky is placed into French Oak casks that have been slowly toasted with hot Icelandic magma stones, rather than charred. By opening the wood slowly and gradually via toasting, a whole new kind of interaction is allowed to take place as the whisky and wood interact. Through this interaction, lighter, more delicate, more diverse flavors are revealed including notes of cinnamon, cloves, caramel, and baked apples.
Created by six-time Master Blender of the Year Stephanie Macleod, Dewar’s Double Double 21 Year Old Stone Toasted Magma French Oak (Level 3) is a fine example of the melding of finishing expertise and a sense of unfettered exploration and discovery. It is one of five experimental whiskies designed to show the potential and influence of oak in finishing. The other four whiskies in the collection each show the possibilities of the different factors involved, including type of oak (American vs. French), heat source (magma vs. jade), and toasting level.

Macnair's Lum Reek 21 Year Old Peated Scotch...$149.99
Compare to $189.99 at Total Wine and More (price checked 11/29/25)

MacNair’s Lum Reek 21-year-old is a marriage of Single Malts from Islay and Speyside – two of the most sought-after whisky regions in Scotland – combining both peated and unpeated spirit to create a perfectly balanced and complex malt. The recipe, concocted by industry veteran and Master Distiller/Blender of the Year, Billy Walker, includes aged GlenAllachie single malt.
The small batch expression was matured to perfection at The GlenAllachie Distillery in a combination of Oloroso sherry, red wine and virgin oak casks expertly sourced from across the globe. The resulting whisky, offered without added colouring or chill-filtration, is brimming with dark chocolate, vanilla fudge, and cinnamon buns, all with gentle peat undertones.
Our 21-year-old has scooped a host of enviable awards including World’s Best Blended Malt (World Whiskies Awards, 2020), Best Blended Malt Scotch (San Francisco World Spirits Competition, 2021), and Master (Scotch Whisky Masters, 2021).

Kirk & Sweeney Rum XO

 
Kirk & Sweeney Rum XO...$179.99 / 750ml
Compare to $249.99 at Total Wine and More (price checked 11/29/25)
At first sip, flavors of toasted oak and vanilla delight the senses with hints of raisin and sherry, built upon layers of spice and sweet dried fruits. Long, warm and robust finish through the end. This XO rum leaves you with a desire for more.
131 proof / 65.5% alc. by volume
The handmade crystal glass is ultra-premium and was inspired by traditional bottles that were used during the rum-running era of the early 20th century. The stopper is also crafted of crystal and is custom to each and every bottle for a precise fitting. The intricate lettering is sandblasted and carefully hand-painted in a luxurious gold.
Inspired by an old captain’s reserve cigar box, the bottle is enclosed in a rich mahogany- styled gift box and opens just as a treasure chest or old trunk might. Playing off the concept of global navigation, antique nautical maps of the main rum smuggling route as well as a compass are printed in gold in the cream leathered interior. The coordinates of the location where the historic Kirk and Sweeney schooner was allegedly seized by the United States Coast Guard are prominently shown on the inlaid ribbon. The process begins with high-quality sugarcane sourced just south of the distillery. The liquid is carefully fermented, distilled and aged in American oak barrels in the Dominican Republic

Kentucky Owl Bourbon Batch #13


Kentucky Owl Bourbon Batch #13...$349.99
Batch#13 is a Kentucky-sourced blend built from five distinctive bourbons aged 4 to 9 years. Bottled at a 113.6 proof, this NAS expression layers the character of corn, rye, wheat, and malted barley into a deep copper whiskey with both muscle and sophistication.

Goslings Papa Single Barrel Seal Rum



Goslings Papa Single Barrel Seal Rum...$149.99
83 Proof
Barrel #19
Pot and column distilled from molasses, blended and then aged for over 15 years in hand-selected, once-used bourbon barrels with a medium char. Bermuda’s humid, salty sea air providing a superior aging environment.
Production is limited to only 12 barrels and although the flavour difference imparted by one barrel versus another is subtle, Papa Seal is hand bottled and hand labeled, one barrel at a time.
Startlingly mellow, with an elegant finish. Notes of spice, leather, banana, caramel and molasses. Papa Seal was created to be enjoyed neat or with a cube of ice.

Gouden Carolus Beers

These have been rolling...people are very excited they are back
...all reloaded again


Gouden Carolus Tripel...$11.99 / 750ml

A golden-blond Belgian tripel with an ABV around 9%, made by Het Anker.
It is refermented in the bottle, giving it a rich, full body and a creamy, large head.
Aromas include banana, citrus, and mint, with a spicy-yeasty backbone, while the taste balances sweetness and gentle bitterness.
Despite its strength, it remains refreshingly drinkable, thanks to its balanced hopping and clean finish.

Best with bright, aromatic, slightly rich dishes
  • Mussels with garlic & white wine (classic Belgian pairing—its spice and citrus cut through the brine)
  • Roast chicken or Cornish hen with herbs
  • Creamy cheeses like brie, camembert, or triple-cream
  • Thai or Vietnamese dishes with lemongrass or light curry heat
  • Seafood pasta with lemon or capers

Gouden Carolus Noël (Christmas)...$11.99 / 750ml
This is a Belgian strong dark ale (about 10.5% ABV) brewed as a Christmas “winter warmer.”
It’s brewed with six different herbs and spices plus three types of Belgian hops, contributing to a deep, rich flavor profile.
Aromatically, you’ll notice strong notes of black licorice (anise), plums, chocolate, and spiced fruitcake, evocative of holiday desserts.

Best with warm, cozy, wintery dishes
  • Glazed ham or honey-roasted pork 
  • Beef stew, especially Belgian Carbonnade
  • Gingerbread, fruitcake, or spiced desserts
  • Blue cheese (bleu d’Auvergne, Roquefort—sweet/spicy vs salty/funky = perfection)
  • Dark chocolate truffles or chocolate tart

Gouden Carolus Imperial Blond...$13.99 / 750ml
This is a strong blond ale (around 10% ABV) from the Cuvée van de Keizer series.
It’s brewed with multiple types of malt and three different spices — giving it a subtle but perceptible spiciness.
The aroma is fruity and herbal, with hints of orange, cumin, and coriander (per its brewery tasting notes).
In taste, it’s quite balanced — rich and full but also refreshingly crisp, thanks to its bright golden character.

Rich blond ale pairs beautifully with savory & slightly spicy meals

  • Grilled shrimp or lobster with butter
  • Moroccan or Middle Eastern dishes with mild spices (cumin, coriander, saffron)
  • Roast turkey or pork loin
  • Washed-rind cheeses like Taleggio
  • Lemon herb pasta with chicken or scallops
Gouden Carolus Imperial Dark...$13.99 / 750ml
Also part of the Cuvée van de Keizer (“Emperor”) series, this is a very rich Belgian strong dark ale with an ABV around 11%.
It has a deep ruby-brown color and a warm, full mouthfeel, designed to age well and develop complexity over time.
On the nose and palate, you’ll find roasted malt, caramel, plums, and dark fruits, with a soft fruitiness layered over warming malt.

Deep, complex, dark ale suits bold, rich, sweet-savory dishes
  • Braised short ribs or slow-cooked beef
  • Barbecue brisket (caramelized sauce matches the dark fruit notes)
  • Duck breast with cherry or plum glaze
  • Aged gouda, cheddar, or alpine cheeses
  • Chocolate mousse, flourless chocolate cake, or tiramisu

Bells Hopslam

We are getting a lot of questions about Bells Christmas Ale, Bells STOUTs and Hopslam...

St. Louis is not getting any Bells Christmas Ales or their stouts? Don't know why?

Hopslam is due in January






Bells Hopslam....arrives in January

Starting with six different hop varietals added to the brew kettle & culminating with a massive dry-hop addition of Simcoe hops, Bell's Hopslam Ale possesses the most complex hopping schedule in the Bell's repertoire.
Selected specifically because of their aromatic qualities, these Pacific Northwest varieties contribute a pungent blend of grapefruit, stone fruit and floral notes. A generous malt bill and a solid dollop of honey provide just enough body to keep the balance in check, resulting in a remarkably drinkable rendition of the Double India Pale Ale style.

J.T.S. Brown Bourbon Bottled in Bond


First time getting the Bottled in Bond!!!



J.T.S. Brown Bourbon Bottled in Bond...$14.99 / 750ml
100 Proof
J.T.S. Brown Bourbon Bottled in Bond delivers one of the best values in classic Kentucky whiskey—a 100-proof, four-year-old bonded bourbon. Built on a traditional mash bill and aged under government supervision for guaranteed quality, it opens with warm caramel and vanilla, a touch of toasted grain, and a hint of orange peel. The palate is surprisingly robust for the price, offering notes of sweet corn, baking spice, and a little dusty oak before finishing clean, dry, and satisfyingly old-school. For cocktails, everyday sipping, or simply having a dependable bottle on hand, J.T.S. Brown Bottled in Bond is a reminder that great bourbon doesn’t need to be expensive.

2022 Purple Hands Latchkey Pinot Noir



Amazing buy!!
Only $50 - should be $70+


2022 Purple Hands Latchkey Pinot Noir....$49.99
Compare to $70 at the Winery
compare to $77.99 at Total Wine and More (not STL)

The 2022 Pinot Noir Latchkey Vineyard is from 18-year-old vines grown on ancient volcanic soils. A bit deeper ruby red, it’s aromatic of black raspberries, rosemary, pressed flowers, and anise. Medium to full-bodied, it is ripe with a rounded, plush, approachable feel, but it has seamless structure and is going to age gracefully over the coming 12-15 years.
Rated 96/100 Jeb Dunnuck
The 2022 Pinot Noir Latchkey Vineyard comes from dry-farmed Pommard vines planted in Jory soils in 2006. It has intense, layered aromas of blueberry, pomegranate and rhubarb, plus nuances of rooibos tea leaves, earth and soaring floral perfume. The medium-bodied palate is bursting with generous, spicy flavors. It’s structured by velvety tannins and vibrant acidity and has a long, layered finish.
