They do a great job stocking their liquor, too. Their displays always make me want to buy something, but be sure to ask for advice, too. It'd be a shame to miss out and not score the perfect bottle.

Yeah, cool, dude. I can read the label too, but what's the difference in taste? "I haven't tried them, but this one is popular." Repeat same scenario for an earthy red recommendation. Super disappointing and I probably would have been better off going to a big store and spending less money. I prefer shopping smaller, local stores, but this is one shop I won't be returning to.

If' I'd been there for wine, I'd probably have a lot more to say, but I wanted a very popular size of a very popular liquor, and they had it. It was $45; I don't know what Connecticut liquor taxes or even prices in New Haven are like generally, so I can't judge the price. I was the only customer at the time. It was cramped. Decor was mostly bottles of wine. I used Yelp to find it and all of the reviews are super old and together they were a mixed bag, so I wanted to say I had a satisfactory experience.

And the whiskey selection is world class, thanks to the owner being one the best whiskey retailers in the state through his many stores. This is a hidden gem in Wallingford with a loyal following among discerning drinkers in the area. Another term for it is "honey hole."

I visit the one by my house pretty frequently because it is large and has a huge selection. The problem with the large store is they are well known and sell out of the good stuff quickly. I was passed along the secret of Ye Old in West Haven that they tend to keep items I am looking for in stock. Ye Old does not get the same clientele that I have to compete with at the larger store. I can usually find exactly what I am looking for, and in decent quantity. When I go in, I usually ask for Brandon as well. He is very knowledgeable and tends to have the same taste as myself and can assist me with new and interesting items. Whenever I am in the area I try to stop in, even if I don't need anything, just to stock up on the basics. Don't let the size fool you, this shop is a goldmine for your needs.
