The holiday gift sets are pretty cool. I ended up buying a beautiful bottle of Japanese whiskey in a dragon decanter. The cashier was nice enough, but I'm a little disappointed in their mini bottle selection. Better luck next time.

Buffalo City Distillery was a pleasant surprise to find! Very close to our rented beach house, and…read moreI adore whiskey. A win win if you ask me. We entered into a lovely, vast, and welcoming space with a good sized bar and plenty of tables for customers and gatherings. I had two of the house cocktails. First of which was an old-fashioned. One of my favorites. The second was a real switch for me. More of a light, fruity cocktail. Both quite good. I wish I had more time to do one of their sample flights of whiskeys. I hadn't been to a distillery in such a long time. Next time! I didn't venture out to the outdoor patio area, but, as my partner and I left, a large group headed straight for the patio. Such a perfect addition to the OBX area.

A must for me to try a local brewery when I come across one or deeply research before traveling anywhere. Such a wide selection of to-go packs, growler fills, and a nice draft list. A good size bar and smaller cozy space to have yourself a beer while you ponder taking home some beverages. The bartender was welcoming and quickly asked what we would like. Very nice customer service. An Outer Banks recommend!

The owner of this place is super nice and helpful and also a great musician. Don't be surprised if you walk in to him jamming away on the guitar (but don't worry, he'll drop the beat to help you with anything you need). I'm not a cigar person but if you are, the selection here is pretty robust and has something for everyone. If you're waiting on a table at North Banks and want something to wet your whistle with, stop in here and peruse the cold beverage options in the refrigerator and pop open a bottle of wine or seltzer at a nearby picnic table (I'm not actually sure this is technically legal but forgiveness not permission, right?).

Back in the summer of 1996 I came to my beach house in Coralla North Carolina. I had finished high…read moreschool that year and my hair was still blond for a musical I had done in high school. Actually, I had dyed my hair blond not because of a musical play, but because I said I would be doing it after Christmas break for my senior year. I had taken a liking to the hair style of Wesley Snipes in the movie Demolition Man. My hair was in the same style and color as I saw in the movie. I was later told to change me hair color back to black because it wasn't natural for African American to do that sort of thing....this is a story in its self, but to make a long store short, several teachers, myself and my parents fought this stupid decision by some of the other higher up faculty members. So when I walked into the Winks store near the light house of Carolla North Carolina, I looked like a young black punk to some of the older women who worked there. I looked around but did not find anything I liked. I tried on some sunglasses, but found nothing I liked and put the glasses back where I found them. Then I walked over to the porno magazines to looked at some voluptuous naked women. Penthouse, Club and Hustler were three magazines I liked. They had voluptuous women in those magazines that playboy did not seem to offer... It was then that the ladies there spoke up and asked if I was 18 years if age. After seeing I was 18 years old they shut up or so I thought. One of the women called the police on me and told the cops that I was a shoplifter. The police offer greeted me as I was about to leave the store and found nothing on me. One of the ladies walked outside to the police officer holding pair sunglasses that I was supposedly trying to steal. The ladies tried to get me arrested and were pissed off about it when they failed. They told me to never come back to this store. At the time my mind did not notice that they were racially profiling me. The cop had to let me go, but came looking for me later on. The cop had nothing on me, but was trying to scare me and it did not work. Nevertheless, after looking at someone's profile on Yelp, I saw they had visited this store, but did not write a review. Seeing this store brought back this memory. I have been back to this store years later to see these two women, but they have either moved elsewhere or are dead. It was my first experience of racial profiling, but not my last. I once got stopped by 6 or 7 cops for walking through a neighborhood in Seattle Washington to visit my Aunt, but that too is another story. Just thought I would share this experience at Wink's.
