Founder & Chief Imbibing Officer at Bottle Shop 33 - Denver, Colorado, United States
Bottle Shop 33 is a very different approach to a retail liquor store. Rather than trying to be all things to all people, or selling 1000's of indistinguishable products stacked high in cardboard boxes, we focus on an experience that builds upon the brands so well developed by distillers, brewers, and vineyards.Consumers have been expecting more in the food they consume, and taking an active interest and role in preparing healthier and more varied meals at home - especially when entertaining. This desire for novelty, innovation and authenticity in food has also been growing in beer and wine, and now spirits.Consumers want to be able to take the cocktail revolution from their favorite bar to their home bar. The quality craft cocktail scene in better bars and restaurants has raised consumers interest and desire in making better drinks at home.Bottle Shop 33 brings all the tools together for the home mixologist: better spirits, bitters, shrubs, bar tools, bar ware, books and recipes, and what we like to call "mixknowlogy".
