They also have a large wine and liquor section as well. Really a cool place to go, even if just to look around.

The selection of high-end whiskey, wines and spirits in here is phenomenal. Unfortunately the…read morecustomer service isn't. Unless you're wearing a suit or look like you have a million Euros in your pocket they don't want to speak to you. There is only one price for all bottles, so even if you're leaving the EU and are entitled to Duty Free purchases, you don't get any such discount here. Which often means you can purchase the same drink cheaper elsewhere.

I came in with a toddler on my arm and my suitcase in the other. I knew what I wanted so I was…read morequick and bought a fancy bottle of Cognac. There were two persons helping me with the payment, checking boarding pass etc. I left and walked 100 feet until I realized I had forgotten my suitcase. I went back and they had just recognized the suitcase standing there. We had a laugh about being a distraught dad and all. A few hours later, while at the gate, I recognized the lady from the store approaching me, she told me I had left my credit card there and they had tried calling me up on the audio system. She had tracked me all the way to my gate, and then helped me back to get to the lost and found department. She definitely saved my day, and I am forever thankful! THIS is the definition of going above and beyond in terms of customer service! I will definitely go back next time.

You'll enjoy the tastings, the history, and the sweet and tranquil atmosphere of the garden. You might also get some attention from a very friendly cat seeking lots of petting. :-)

The Mr preferred the one in the middle as it was the perfect ratio of smooth and biting all at the same time Loved the dark woods of the furniture and bar and the copper stills where they make the brandy were a wonderful addition to see out in the open like that Great place to discover new brandy!

Soon other fruit flavors will enter your nostrils and before you know it you will have walked inside a great little winery. Sigurd the shopkeeper and owner of an enormous smile will only be too happy to show you the great collection of wines they have. He is a walking storyteller, knows the quirky details of every bottle, and spends his free time visiting the old and new wine houses. On my last visit I discovered they have a fantastic sake collection as well with some of the best tasting sakes around if you are into the stuff. It is a social thing they will say which is why on Fridays they sometimes crack open a bottle or two and share it with you and others in a casual tasting affair. But this is the cool thing, no matter how small or how big the budget, you will leave with something delicious and a tale to tell your friends.

Hmmm oké, deze winkel wordt door studenten misschien niet heel druk bezocht. En aangezien ik een…read morestudent ben is het niet persé logisch dat ik van deze winkel genoeg weet om iets geloofwaardigs te schrijven, maar dat is wel zo. Studenten die snakken naar alcohol trekken sneller een sprintje naar de Albert Heijn dan naar de Gouden Ton. En tja, deze zuiplappen hebben de volgende morgen dan waarschijnlijk een fikse hoofdpijn (en ze zijn ook niet helemaal bankroet, elke nadeel heb z'n voordeel). Maar als ik een perfect remedie tegen katerhoofdpijn zou moeten aanbevelen, zou ik iedereen naar de Gouden Ton sturen. Het heerlijke aan de Gouden Ton (ton) vind ik natuurlijk de wijntjes, uiteraard, maar die krijg je door het goede advies van de eigenaar, die altijd in de ton te vinden is. Ik ben er wel eens binnen gelopen met de vraag: 'eeeh, ja, ik zoek iets voor m'n vader, die is jarig'. Geweldige klantenservice levert deze goede man, hij wist me een perfect wijntje mee te geven om m'n vader blij mee te maken. In elke prijsklasse heeft de ton eigenlijk wel wijn liggen, vanaf ongeveer vier en een halve euro. En denk niet dat die goedkope wijn puur bocht is, ik heb ze laatst geproefd, en het was goddelijk.
