The Luzhou Laojiao Distillery is situated in the lush river town of Luzhou, in southwestern Chinas Sichuan Province. The winemaking traditions of Luzhou spans almost two thousand years, with luminaries such as Guo Huaiyu the creator of big qu baijiu in the fourteenth century and Shi Jingzhang inventor of pit fermentation baijiu in the fifteenth century laying the foundations of this special spirit.The Luzhou distillery is famed for its 1,000-year pit, 10,000-year mash technique involving optimizing the fermentation process that develops flavor over time. In the 1950s Luzhou Laojiao trail-blazed the first modern guide to baijiu production,Luzhou Laojiao Big Qu Spirits, inspiring distillers across China.Baijiu (pronouncedbye-jyo) means white spirits in Mandarin. The secret ingredient in baijiu is qu (pronounced chew), a naturally harvested culture of airborne yeasts and other microorganisms. It makes the taste and scent of every baijiu highly specific to the place it was created. Qu also allows Chinese distillers to ferment and distill grains in a solid state, which creates incredible complexity of flavor. There nearly a dozen distinctive regional styles of baijiu, but there are four major styles: strong aroma, light aroma, sauce aroma, and rice aroma.A balanced and complex spirit, Ming River is the original Sichuan baijiu. Each batch starts with locally harvested red sorghum grain and the purest waters from protected wells. It is fermented in earthen pits with naturally harvested yeast cultures native to Luzhou that impart the distinctive terroir of Sichuan style baijiu. After two months, the mash is unearthed and distilled in small batches using a traditional Chinese pot still. The spirits age for up to two years before the master blender balances them into Ming Rivers distinctive flavor.The result is an uncompromisingly bold spirit with notes of pineapple and anise with a lingering mellow finish. Perfect neat alongside spicy cuisine or in a cocktail, this baijiu evokes Sichuan with each sip.Pick up your bottle today!

After serving honorably in World War II, Commander Montgomery "Monty" Collins of the Royal Air Force was discharged in 1951 and moved to the Northern Black Forest where he opened a country guest home nicknamed "The Wild Monkey." The Black Forest area is notorious for producing some of the worlds finest fruit liqueurs, and so Collins eventually began experimenting with distillation. In time, he perfected the recipe for his very own gin, which became the signature spirit served at The Wild Monkey until the 1970s."When I heard about a special gin that contains classical spices and also ingredients from the Black Forest such as spruce shoots and lingonberries, I left my job and began doing research with the aim of bringing this gin back to life," says Alexander Stein, who resurrected Collins gin. After two years of research and development, Stein, together with master distiller Christoph Keller, settled on a recipe that called for 47 unique ingredients. The ingredients include acacia, acorus, calamus, almond, angelica, bitter orange, blackberry, cardamom, cassia, chamomile, cinnamon, citron verbena, cloves, coriander, cranberries, cubeb, dog rose, elderflower, ginger, grains of paradise, hawthorn berries, hibiscus abelmoshus, hibiscus syriacus, honeysuckle, jasmine, kaffir lime, lavender, lemon, lemon balm, lemongrass, licorice, lingonberries, mondara didyma, nutmeg, orris, pimento, pomelo, rose hip, sage, sloe and spruce.The ingredients are steeped in French-made molasses alcohol for 36 hours prior to being distilled through an Arnold Holstein copper-pot still. Keller combines traditional maceration and distillation techniques, as well as vapor infusing certain ingredients, to gather precise amounts of the more volatile botanicals and accentuate more sublime flavors.Each year, Monkey 47 creates a one-of-a-kind, limited-edition Distillers Cut that sets the hearts of bartenders and gin enthusiasts to racing, testing the limits of whats possible in distilling botanical ingredients into an unforgettable sensory experience.This Distillers Cut 2019 Edition is distilled with nutmeg seed Myristica fragrans, also known as mace. This spice was brought by Arab merchants to Europe in the 11th century, where it was mistaken for the dried blossoms of nutmeg trees. The mace is ground and added to the traditional macerate used to make Monkey 47. Due to the nutmeg seeds high concentration of essential oils, it requires delicate alchemy to make each bottle as harmonious as possible. In a complex and extensive process, this Distillers Cut is macerated once more following the initial distillation, then distilled again. After that, its left to mature for three months in earthenware containers before being combined with soft spring water from the Black Forest.This 2019 Distillers Cut is a piquant, yet elegant dry gin with delicate, subtly resinous top notes that lend it a unique complexity and unparalleled density. Its an exceptional pleasure for the palate and not only for those who love the captivating scent of nutmeg.Pick up your bottle today!

In 1895, Masataka Taketsuru the father of Japanese Whisky was born in the small town of Takehara, Japan. At the time, Masatakas family owned a sake brewery, and in preparing to carry on the family trade, Masataka studied chemistry and biology at Osaka Technical High School. After graduating from high school, Masataka showed more interest in whisky than sake, and in 1918, he enrolled at the University of Glasgow in Scotland, becoming the first Japanese ever to study the art of whisky-making. While in Scotland, Masataka took chemistry courses during the day while apprenticing at distilleries at night, learning to distill and blend whisky first-hand at some of Scotlands most prestigious distilleries. In 1920, Masataka returned to Japan, and within the decade, had produced the countrys first single malt whisky.In 1934, Masataka moved to the town of Yoichi and opened the doors to Nikka Whisky Co. In 1960, as the Yoichi Distillery was reaching capacity, Masataka began searching for another suitable location in Japan to open a second distillery. Following a three-year search, Masataka found a wide forest valley at the junction of the Hirosegawa and Nikkawagawa rivers. The localized humidity from the rivers and surrounding hills, together with the quality of water from Nikkawagawa River, created the perfect location for a second distillery, which he named Miyagikyo.Nikka Days is a celebration of the distillerys unique position somewhere between the east and west cultures, nature and humanity, tradition and innovation, where each day represents a learning opportunity. The smooth and gentle blended whisky is lightly peated and comes from Nikkas both main distilleries. Its a combination of grain and malt spirits: Coffey Grain, Miyagikyo Malt, as well as some Coffey Malt and Yoichi Malt.Pick a bottle up today!

Noble Oak makes unique and award-winning whiskey with a worthy purpose. The folks at Noble Oak are wood fanatics and rightly so.

Situated in the foothills of the Serra do Mar mountains in eastern Brazil, the quaint town of Morretes is home to approximately 15,000 residents, including Agenor Macarri Jr., the master distiller at Agroecolgica Marumbi. Macarri, who received a graduate degree in Cachaa Agronomy from Universidade Federal do Parana in Curitiba, is often referred to as Dr. Cachaa. Macarri has studied every component of cachaa production, from the genetics of sugar cane to the exposure of cachaa to different types of wood.Novo Fogo Organic Gold Cachaa is made from 100 percent estate-grown, organic sugarcane grown without the use of chemicals or preservatives. While many sugarcane farmers burn their fields prior to harvesting their plants (burning enables faster cultivation), Novo Fogo refuses to use flame-harvesting due to the detrimental effects it has on the sugars residing in the base of the cane stalk. Rather, when the sugarcane reaches its peak of maturity, expert farmers at the Novo Fogo estate tenderly harvest the crops by hand.After the sugarcane is harvested, it is pressed to extract the sugar cane juice. The juice is then mixed with with organic corn, rice and lime juice and is fermented for approximately 24 hours. After fermentation, the wash is distilled in one pass through Macarris 1,200-liter copper-pot still (the bagasse the dry, fibrous residue remaining after the sugarcane stalks are pressed is used to heat the still). "We use pure sugar cane, grown organically and processed manually, with no chemicals, so why should we distill it twice?"asks Macarri. "There are no impurities in it to remove through multiple distillation."After distillation, the heads and tails of the distillate are cut, and the remaining cachaa is matured in used Kentucky bourbon barrels. Prior to their use, however, the bourbon casks are disassembled, sanded and re-toasted in order to ensure that the cachaa is able to absorb the requisite tannins from the oak.Novo Fogo Organic Gold Cachaa is matured for just over two years, giving it a nose of toffee and vanilla, which gives way to notes of brioche, honey, dried fruits and banana bread. After its two-year slumber, the cachaa is brought to proof and each hand-blown bottle is then filled and labeled by hand.Novo Fogo, which means "new fire"in Portuguese, wont burn you. The cachaa earned a score of 91 points from Wine Enthusiast. Pick up a bottle today!

Born from a marriage of traditional tequila making and modern technology, Partida Familia Tequila is made from blue agave nectar sourced near El Cerro, a dormant volcano, in Santiago de Tequila, Mexico. From afar, the rolling hills of agave fields could be mistaken for vineyards in the south of France or Sonoma Valley. Up close, however, you can see the rich red soil, which creates the perfect terrain for maturing the agave plant. With years of experience, jimadors determine exactly when each agave is ready for harvest.Jose Valdez, Tequila Partidas master distiller, holds a Tequila Expert degree from Cultura y Capacitacin del Tequila A.C. (Tequila Culture and Training Association), and is also a certified Tequila Technician from the Consejo Regulador del Tequila (Tequila Regulatory Council). He carefully monitors the entire production process, including the quality of the blue agave.The pias are perfectly ripened with mature, robust sugars, the blue agave is harvested by hand and slowly baked in state-of-the-art autoclaves to preserve freshness and flavor. After the agave has been baked and shredded, Valdez lets the agave juices ferment for nearly two days before twice distilling the tequila.The Roble Fino ("fine oak") series was conceived upon Valdezs visit to Scotland, where he envisioned a partnership between tequila and Scotch single malts. He crafted 3 unique expressions: the Reposado, Reposado Cristalino, and Aejo, which build on the super-solid foundation of their award-winning regular Reposado and Aejo tequilas. These are then finished in Edringtons sherry-seasoned single malt oak casks. The Roble Fino Aejo thus takes the 18-month-old tequila and transfers it from its ex-bourbon casks to those sherry-seasoned single malt barrels for another 5 months, resulting in a complex and deep spirit with agave, toasted oak, and dried fruit notes.Get your bottle today!

Paul John single malt whiskies are the masterful creations of John Distilleries Ltd. JDL was established in 1992, by Mr. Paul P. John, who had a vision for creating a quality, premium, international single malt. Most Indian whiskies are not distilled from the usual grains that Scotch whisky drinkers are accustomed to. Rum drinkers, on the other hand, are likely to be familiar with the molasses base these are distilled from.Mr. Paul P. John had the vision of bringing a single malt to the market that would captivate even the most cutthroat whisky connoisseurs. Under the guidance of Master Distiller Michael DSouza, John embarked on a journey to create "The Great Indian Single Malt". This single malt whisky hails from the southwestern Indian state of Goa. As one of the 3 biggest whisky producers in India, JDL launched their single malt in 2008 and made their full lineup of whiskies available in US markets in 2016.Their Indian barley, sourced from the foothills of the Himalayan mountains, yields less alcohol than its European counterpart, but is said to have a much higher flavor profile. The whisky is matured in a tropical climate, which results in over 20 percent of the spirit evaporating each year. This climate is also what makes Indian whisky mature faster than its Scotch counterparts. JDL has a highly acclaimed and diverse portfolio, including its flagship brand Original Choice Whisky, which sells over 10 million cases a year. They also produce a brand of Brandy (Mnt Castl, Roulette), and Wine (Big Banyan, Goanas). Paul John Nirvana is an unpeated single malt expression crafted from Indian six-row barley and matured in charred American oak casks. It contains no artificial additives and is bottled at 80 proof. You can expect rich and fruity aromas ranging from fruitcake and caramel to notes of honey, apricots, raisins, apples and salted caramel, as well as a hint of brine on the palate. The honey stays on through the very long finish and is joined by a dash of vanilla.Grab a bottle today!

The inspiration of beauty and art come together in champagne Perrier-Jout thanks to the shared passion and dedication of Pierre Nicolas Perrier, a cork supplier from a family of winegrowers, and Rose Adle Jout, the 19-year-old daughter of a respected calvados producer. Married in 1811, this young couple founded the House of Perrier-Jout and set about acquiring the most prized vineyards in the Cte des Blancs.Over 200 years later, Perrier-Jout is known throughout the world for its incredible line of Champagnes. Since its establishment in the early 19th century, the company has had just seven cellar masters, each trained by his/her predecessor (the current Chef de Caves is Herv Deschamps). Each production is limited in volume, and five times throughout the companys history in 1879, 1882, 1902, 1908 and 1910 Perrier-Jout has decided not to release any bottle due to poor harvests. Perhaps most notably, Perrier-Jout is recognized for its finest luxury cuve, Belle Epoque, which comes in an elegant flower bottle originally designed by Emile Gall in 1902.In 1856, Perrier-Jout was the first House to launch a Brut style called dry until the 1880s with less sugar for the English palate. Perrier-Jout Grand Brut Champagne is crafted from a blend of grapes (40 percent Pinot Noir, 40 percent Pinot Meunier and 20 percent Chardonnay) which are pressed in the village of Cramant on Perrier-Jouts traditional wooden presses. After it is racked, the clear juice is transported to pernay for fermentation. In the cellar, modern stainless steel tanks provide precise temperature control for the alcoholic and malolactic fermentations of the base wine. A liqueur de triage of sugar, yeast and base wine is added to the bottle, but of only 9 grams, in order for the natural subtlety of the prestige cuve to shine through.As a result, Perrier-Jout Grand Brut Champagne has a golden yellow color and aromas of tropical fruit, citrus, spice and yeast. The palate is crisp and balanced, and leads to a complex finish complete with fresh apples and lemons.Perrier-Jout Grand Brut Champagne earned a score of 91 points from Wine Spectator pick up a bottle today!

In 1805, the Mitchell and Sons Wine Merchants Company was established in the heart of Dublin, Ireland. By the turn of the 19th century, the Mitchells sold a range of Irish whiskeys under the name "Spot." This name originated from the companys practice of marking casks of different ages with a spot of colored paint. As a result, Mitchell and Sons sold whiskeys named Blue Spot, Green Spot, Red Spot and finally Yellow Spot, which was last seen in the mid-to-late 1960s."Pot Still Whiskeys define the traditional flavor character of Irish whiskey and we have seen a renewed interest and growth in the category over the last few years," says Brian Nation, the master distiller at Midleton Distillery. Midleton follows a centuries-old recipe from Mitchell and Son to create this triple-distilled single pot Irish whiskey. To become Red Spot, this whiskey is matured for at least 15 years in a combination of American Bourbon, Spanish sherry, and Sicilian Marsala wine casks. Decades of old recipe books, ledgers, and archive materials provided Jonathan Mitchell with the resources to create a truly authentic whiskey. Pick up your bottle today!
