Armand de Brignac |
 |
| Armand de Brignac is marvelously complex and full-bodied, with a bouquet that is both fresh and lively. Its sumptuous, racy fruit character is perfectly integrated with the wine's subtle brioche accents. Its texture is deliciously creamy and the palate has great depth and impact with a long and silky finish. A superb and singular example of a Prestige Champagne. |

Stolichnaya Elit Vodka |
 |
| Stolichnaya Elit Vodka 750ml: Elit is carefully crafted using a centuries-old Russian recipe and a revolutionary "freeze filtration process" that filters the finest of distilled alcohol, the so-called "lux," or middle fraction of each limited distillation run. The result is an exquisite product that sets a new standard for consumers and creates the entirely new "ultra-luxury" category among imported vodkas. To fully appreciate the handcrafted excellence and purity of its taste, Stolichnaya elit should only be served chilled, on ice or in traditional martinis with premium ingredients. Its creators frown upon mixing it with juices or other sweet concoctions that would mask or tarnish the clarity of this superior vodka. |

Maestro Dobel Diamond |
 |
| Maestro Dobel Diamond Tequila is a fascinating aged tequila that looks like an extremely clear silver tequila. It embodies the richness and wood flavor of the Reposado, Anejo and Extra-Anejo tequilas which create the blend and the spirit's clarity is due to the proprietary filtration. What this tequila is is a fine sipping experience, one of the best available for under $100 dollars, and it is truly the epitomy of a luxury tequila. The trouble is in trying to find a bottle as Maestro Dobel Diamond is available in "extremely limited quantities." |

Canadian Club 30-yr |
 |
| Celebrating 150 years of whiskymaking, Canadian Club recently put out a very limited edition 30-year-old bottling. With just 3000 bottles produced (there's no mention of it on the Canadian Club website), finding it might be tough. Bright amber in color, the nose is surprisingly light and only hints at wood. The first taste of the body reveals light wood notes but lots of flavor beyond that. Dried apple and banana, caramel and honey, and a good amount of spice from the rye component here. The whisky starts out hot but soon mellows (you really don't need water with it) and its character grows the more you taste it. |

901 Silver Tequila |
 |
| The ultra premium spirit is hand crafted in small batches using only 100% Blue Weber Agave. It's triple distilled for an ultra-smooth finish. Justin Timberlake and partners selected Tequilera Newton in the heart of Jalisco, Mexico to produce 901 after visiting more than 10 distilleries. Newton brings over three generations of craftsmanship and more than 60 years of experience. So what's the meaning behind the numbers? Aside from being the Memphis area code where Justin grew up, "901 is that time of night when your evening is ending, but your night is just beginning." |

Gran Patron |
 |
| Triple distilled then aged to perfection, Gran Patron is a true connoisseur's silver tequila. Every Gran Patron bottle is a handmade crystal (lead free) piece of art that is hand polished, hand signed and numbered with an etched label. Each bottle is surrounded by velvet and embraced in a hand-made, violin quality, curly maple wood box. Like each bottle, every box is a hand-crafted, collectible piece of art that is signed and numbered by its craftsman. |

TRU Vodka |
 |
| Dedicated to using only the finest natural products available, TRU Organic Spirits often sources their ingredients from local growers and make each product in small batches to maintain maximum flavor and quality.The results were immediately apparent: Wine Enthusiast proclaimed Modern Spirits as one of the "top 50 spirits" in 2006 and the Wall Street Journal deemed them "Best of the Tasting" compared to other infused vodkas on the market. In 2008, Modern Spirits expanded their ecological efforts and introduced TRU Vodka America's first completely sustainable spirits line. This means TRU Vodkas are organic, packaged in 100% recycled, recyclable or biodegradable packaging. Furthermore, to improve the environment and reward every customer, Modern Spirits plants a tree for every bottle sold. |

Compass Box Hedonism |
 |
| Take a step into a richer and deeper Hedonism in the limited edition Hedonism Maximus. This blend of a 42 year old Invergordon whisky and a 29 year old from Scotland's oldest continuously operating distillery, Cameron Bridge, is the shining light of Compass Box's portfolio and is simply a stunning Scotch. This extra-old version of the popular Hedonism has all of the same aspects, but in an intensified form, with notes of caramel, burnt toffee, vanilla and coconut making an appearance. Unfortunately for Scotch lovers, this beauty is an extremely limited release with just 1500 bottles available and only 600 of those will reach the United States. |
