I have walked by this liquor store a handful of times. Turns out, it's more than just any old…read moreliquor store. It's one for the ages, dating back centuries. Every time I can't help but to notice the uniquely shaped bottles of liquor in the shape of a shoe, car or gun on display. The bottles aren't exactly the typical brands but they have those also. Inside is warm and inviting. The wooden shelves that hold the bottles and handful of kegs of liquor give the old world touch, it reminds me of the charm of much of Amsterdam's old pubs. I am just looking around but I already know what I want. The lady who is managing the store is talking on the phone but when she saw me come in, she got off and took the time to address my inquiries. She was so pleasant. I apologized for intruding on her conversation and with a smile she said no problem. She explained the different versions of Absinthe, as that was I was in the market for here. Grabbed a bottle for 20euros as a gift. There are larger bottles that are pricier. Packaging is just paper, nothing fancy. For this business in term of it's age, friendly staff and uniqueness, I walked away with something I can give that is not run of the mill.

I don't really like to drink much since I'm a light weight, but my friends do. We went over here to purchase some prosecco and sweet wine, so we can enjoy them before hitting the clubs. Most of the bottles here cost under 5 Euro which cost as much as a small glass of wine at a bar, so you are really saving money. This location is also conveniently located under Albert Heijn Market which is a a perfect stop to grab cheeses, grapes and crackers to compliment your delicious wine.

It comes with four samples, plus a taster size water and a baby bowl of peanuts. What a nice touch! I hate peanut butter in beer (like it's the worst thing ever created, ew), but peanuts WITH beer is a great idea. I had the bitterblond, scotch, barleywine, and tripel. They were all top quality. I gave the scotch away though. Too peaty for me. All in all a very cool place to hang out. If I had longer time in the city, I would've returned for sure.
