These are a few of our favorite finds from the last year:
1. Balvenie 17 year Peated Cask - this is a fantastic find for your favorite scotch lover - smoky, spicy - guaranteed to impress.
2. Santa Teresa 1796 - often times rum gets a bad wrap. Saved for summer parties, pina coladas or other sugary cocktails. But we've got one fantastic rum that you can sip like a true spirit. Santa Teresa has flavors of Caramel, Red Fruits, and Spice - fantastic with your holiday fruit cake (we're kidding about that last bit).
3. Plymouth Navy Strength Gin - not Available in the US sadly. Please someone from the UK bring us a bottle of this white gold!
4. Unico Tequila - if you're looking for a superb tequila - there's the newly released Unico Tequila. Unico is extremely smooth, and is best served with a slice of lime as a sipping tequila.
5. Bache-Gabrielsen Hors d'Age Grande Champagne Cognac not only comes in this exquisite bottle, but it's a fantastic cognac with notes of red fruits, honey, vanilla, oak, and caramel.
6. We like to support local businesses - and we love what's going on in Colorado. Rob's Mountain Gin is made in Boulder Colorado - made with locally sourced materials. And the graphics are pretty spot on, an added bonus.
7. Hudson Whiskey Age Your Own Whiskey Kit - pretty self explanatory. Start with the basics, good white dog, and age it in your own tiny barrel. Genius, we say.
8. Underburg Leather Belt - comes with 20 bottles of the herbal digestive that's a perfect touch after a big holiday meal.
9. Woodford Reserve New Cask Rye - we're new fans of Rye, and so this one is an instant favorite. Part of their 2011 Master's Collection, and will be perfect on the rocks or in a Manhattan.
