The reason for buying whisky from Nick, the owner, is Nick. Nick Sullivan is a people person. Yes, he has, he likes to say, about a 1000 different whiskys to choose from in his storefront. But this is a place one visits in an area where it is quite easy to be overwhelmed by choice. Nick is knowledgable, and he will spend time educating you so you can make an informed decision. And shops like Nick's often are the fortunate recipients of whisky vendors supplying him with exceptional ,hard to find (for a visitor to Aberdeen that is) whisky. Yes, he is in business to make a profit; however, when a man like Nick tells you, "this is the whisky my girlfreind and I were drinlking Christmas Day", you listen. And then buy. For it's not the price (super reasonable) but the fact that you feel you can trust his word. It's not only the age of the whisky, but all the other details that go into making a sublime malt drink ever more so. Thank you Nick. If you live nearby, I can't recommend Nick enough. If you are just visiting, like myself, it;s worth the time to drop in and say hi. For those looking for price as the main consideration, you can shop all you want. But you'll be missing the best reason to stop in at Nick's store: Nick himself. A true Aberdeen treasure. read more

This is, as far as I know, the only independent whisky shop in Aberdeen. It's a small shop, filled to the brim with enticing looking whisky. Nick, the owner, is a knowledgeable guy, and normally has a half dozen or so bottles open for you to taste, with dedicated tastings on Saturdays. He also stocks a variety of other spirits, which look pretty impressive. There's something at every price point, from entry level bottles all the way up to rarities costing several hundred pounds. Things can be sourced if not in the shop, as I understand it. Price-wise, an independent shop can't hope to beat the big supermarkets when they put a bottle of scotch on offer, but it certainly compares favourably to un-reduced bottles. A few minutes in here will really broaden your horizons, and you'll probably leave with a new bottle of something a bit esoteric. Cheers! read more

Great little shop on the Main Street in Aberdeen selling locally produced whiskey, gin and vodkas . For being a tiny shop I was surprised by the levels of choice on the shelves. The price was also fair. read more
