Hands down the best whisky bar I've ever seen. I would give this place ten stars if I could.
We were fortunate enough to get a couple seats at the bar and let Simon take care of us for a couple hours. After asking a few questions about my tastes and what I was looking for, he guided me through four incredible glasses (Glenrothes 18, St. Magdalene 28 distilled in 1982, Rosebank 21 distilled in 1990, and a Bunnahabhain 36 distilled in 1974). They have an absurd selection including older vintages, many independent bottlings, and closed distilleries. Simon was adept at suggesting unique, delicious pours, and, incredibly, the bill didn't break the bank. The price for the four pours (and a glass of prosecco) was less than you could ever find a glass of any of the last three whiskys in the states (if you could even find them). Truly a wonderful experience for anyone who appreciates whisky.

The first night was busier so we were understanding but after a 2nd poor experience we took our...

And the whisky selection is excelent! Let me put it this way: they have a ladder in the bar that they need to access the entirety of their many...
