Intoxicology — Local services in St. Louis

This shop is simply the best. I don't even write reviews, really. I felt compelled because my girlfriend and I, since March, have been quarantined here (because of health issues) and we've been here countless times to try new kinds of liquor and purchase interesting mixers. I'm from NYC and hadn't been to St. Louis... I had no idea what to expect, but wow: the owner of Intoxicology has such knowledge of spirits, has recommended me so many awesome Mezcals, and offered such comprehensive (and accessible!) thoughts on liquor that I not only keep leaving with more mezcal and tequila, but I also keep leaving knowing a little bit more about how it's made and why it tastes a certain way.

During the class, we learned to make three types of cocktails: one shaken, one stirred, and one with egg white. Each drink was full-sized, so their advice to eat beforehand was spot on! The class lasted about 2.5 hours, and we left with a much deeper appreciation for what goes into a truly great cocktail. It was fascinating to see how small details make such a big difference between an average drink and an exceptional one.

We 100% recommend this experience to anyone who enjoys cocktails or wants to try something fun and educational. It’s a unique outing that’s perfect for a group or even as a special date night. We can’t...

Amazing store which contains everything you need for your bar to include bar utensils, glasses, books about cocktails, and of course wine, liquors and specialty items such as a wide selection of bitters, syrups, and mixers. The owner was extremely friendly and helpful. Unlike a box liquor store or your typical large liquor store, Intoxicology had smaller selections, but everything was of high quality. The wine and spirits were very nicely displayed and the prices were exceptionally reasonable. This store seemed to be all about “demystifying” cocktails and everything seemed “high class!” There was also a bar within the store! If you are looking for a classy gift, there were boxes which included all of the ingredients needed to make a specific cocktail. The nicest liquor store I have visited in my 50+ years of life which includes living in multiple States within the...
