Ron Zacapa Edición Negra
Ron Zacapa
Edición Negra takes Zacapa's high-altitude solera system and pushes it toward heavier charred casks, producing a darker, more brooding rum than its siblings. The result is a spirit that trades some of the Centenario 23's honeyed charm for genuine complexity and a savory edge. Whether you sip it neat or pair it with a robust dessert, this is rum built for contemplation.
Michter's 10 Year Old Single Barrel Kentucky Straight Bourbon
Michter's
Michter's 10 Year exemplifies the discipline of selecting barrels that can handle a full decade without tipping into over-oaked bitterness. This is bourbon that rewards slow sipping — each minute in the glass unlocks new layers. A benchmark for what extended aging should accomplish in Kentucky whiskey.
Don Pilar Añejo Tequila
Don Pilar
Don Pilar's Añejo delivers genuine agave character that has been shaped, not masked, by eighteen months in oak. This is añejo the way it should be done — the wood serves the spirit, not the other way around. At its price point, it competes well above its weight class, offering depth and balance that many pricier añejos struggle to achieve.
Jensen's Old Tom London Gin
Jensen's
Christian Jensen spent years researching nineteenth-century recipes to reconstruct an authentic Old Tom profile. The result is not a novelty — it is a genuine revival, offering a window into what gin tasted like before London Dry became the dominant style. Essential for anyone building a historically informed Martinez or Tom Collins.

Real McCoy 5 Year Old Barbados Rum
The Real McCoy
The Real McCoy 5 Year is a benchmark for what additive-free aged rum can be at an entry price. Distilled at Foursquare but branded and bottled by Bailey Pryor's estate, it prioritizes transparency and craft over flash. It's versatile enough for cocktails and honest enough for sipping — a rare combination at this price.
Plantation Xaymaca Special Dry
Plantation
Xaymaca is a case study in productive tension: all the high-ester Jamaican funk and tropical fruit you'd expect, held in check by genuine dryness and structural oak. It's the rum equivalent of a dry Riesling—aromatic sweetness contradicted by a bone-dry palate. Essential for Tiki cocktails but genuinely enjoyable neat.
Plantation Barbados & Jamaica Aged 9 Years
Plantation
This blend showcases Plantation's skill in marrying complementary rum traditions. The Barbadian base provides polish and sweetness, while the Jamaican addition injects personality and ester-driven complexity that keeps the palate engaged. At nine years old, there's genuine oak maturity here without over-extraction. A versatile rum that works neat, on ice, or in elevated cocktails.
