WhiskyMentors We revolutionize the liquor store shopping experience for you. Try us. We listen to each other to learn what our palates want. Every bottle has a story.

You can buy your whiskey anywhere but only one store in CT can claim to have a whiskey sommelier. While it’s not just about the knowledge we have about the whiskey we carry or how we pick dozens of winning single barrels, it’s about the passion that exudes from our veins when you come to talk to us about whiskeys. We talk about the astounding aromas that wake up your nose, how the second sip dance

s on your tongue and the lingering finish that stays with you for what seems like an eternity. We exchange stories of our whiskey escapades, how we have shared or plan to share that special bottle with family and friends. We speak the common language of whiskey and all is good in the world for the moment. Do you still need to think about going anywhere else but Canterbury Liquors? This contagious passion carries over to all the spirits, beers and iconic wines we have procured for you. Come share yours with us.

Felt like having a couple of lavender gin sours this morning so had to make use of all the leftover egg yolks. Not a lick of heavy cream in the fridge, no Hollandaise sauce could be made. We’re just gonna throw it all on an English’s muffin and get on with the cocktail. 🍸🍸😆

Air so fresh, cushion so soft, dram of whisky his momma made, what more can Chauncey ask for? TG he can’t speak English. He’d have more than a few words to say. He’d probably say what are you waiting for if you haven’t gotten your stash of Cigar Malt yet 😻🥃

Cigar Malt has finally made its way to camp for this season. At camp we don’t worry about what color our plates are or whether we have matching flatware. We are happy we have plenty of wood and gas, good food, drinks, music and good summer weather of course. Good company is number one priority!! 🥃🥃

Home sweet home. I miss my Y grill when I’m out and about. I think everyone place I visit should have one 🤣 Ribeye, (chicken for Chauncey), fresh chicory and purslane salad courtesy of my neighbor Toni and this fantastic double gold rye in my Manhattan and there is not much to complain about. 🥃🥃

It’s been a busy travel week and we got a lot accomplished. But it’s good to be home and chillin at camp for a few. Dreaming “Holladay” single barrel dreams under the azure blue summer sky, A gentle northwest breeze caresses the lake top and only the sounds of nature surrounds you. 🥃🥃

Who needs a whisk(e)y mentor

Anyone who wants to buy or sell whiskey needs one.

As a whiskey drinker, you can buy your whiskey anywhere but only one store in CT can claim to have a whiskey sommelier on call. While it’s not just about the knowledge we have about the whiskey we carry or how we pick dozens of winning single barrels, it’s about the passion that exudes from our veins when you come to talk to us about whiskeys. We listen to each other to learn what our palates want. We talk about the astounding aromas that wake up your nose, how the second sip dances on your tongue and the lingering finish that stays with you for what seems like an eternity. We exchange stories of our whiskey escapades, how we have shared or plan to share that special bottle with family and friends. We speak the common language of whiskey and all is good in the world for the moment. Do you still need to think about going anywhere else but Canterbury Liquors, the Home of Whisky Mentors? This contagious passion carries over to our craft beer arsenal and the iconic wines we have procured for you. Every bottle has a story. Come share yours with us.

As whiskey sellers, be it private clubs, bars or restaurants, you wonder how to become that great whisk(e)y bar that everyone clamours to get into? It’s not about having all these whiskies in your bar. It’s about having the right whiskies. Remember every bottle has a story and everyone loves a good story. You need someone who can tell that story. That’s one of the many great things a whisk(e)y mentor does - tell a good story. But some stories are more intriguing than others. That’s why you need a whisk(e)y mentor to help you pick bottles or single barrels.
