The Pro Bar Kit

Six bottles, six categories, six small distilleries — including a single malt made in Brooklyn and a single-barrel bourbon from an estate that grows its own grain. Nothing here has a marketing budget, which is exactly why the liquid is this good. Add the bitters set if you want to start building properly.

What's in the bundle

Every bottle, and why it made the cut.

The story

Six distilleries you can name the owner of.

A four-bottle bar covers what people ask for. A six-bottle bar covers what you actually want to drink — because the two categories starter kits leave out, single malt and gin, are the two that reward a good bottle the most.

Every distillery in this box is small enough that the people who own it are the people who make it. One grows all its own grain on the estate and distils it on site, which almost nobody does. One is in Brooklyn. One bottles each agave field separately and names it, the way a winemaker names a vineyard. That is where the character in these bottles comes from, and it is the thing scale tends to average away.

It also means you can't price-check any of this at a chain store, because they don't carry it. What you're comparing is the liquid.

  • 6independent distilleries, zero big brands
  • 1single malt, made in Brooklyn
  • 100%estate-grown grain in the bourbon
The maths

Cheaper than the same bottles, one at a time.

No mystery discount. Here's exactly what each item costs on our shelf today, and what the bundle costs instead.

Someone already chose

The hard part of a bottle shop is the wall of labels. This is one decision instead of four, made by people who taste this stuff for a living.

It costs less than the parts

Every bundle is priced under the sum of its bottles at today's shelf price. The receipt on the left is the whole argument.

It gives well

A single bottle is a nice gesture. A themed set with the story of each bottle is a present — and it arrives ready to hand over.

One delivery, one signature

Local delivery or in-store pickup, all of it in one box. Someone 21+ signs once and you're done.

Put it to work

What six bottles gets you.

Stirred

The Old Fashioned, twice

2 oz bourbon, syrup, two dashes of bitters, stirred over one big cube. Then build it again with the rye and compare.

Estate grain against cask-strength rye, same recipe. That comparison is the whole education.
Stirred

The Negroni

Equal parts gin, sweet vermouth and a bitter aperitivo. Stir, orange peel.

This is why gin is in the kit — nothing else makes a Negroni.
Neat

Cask strength, with water

1.5 oz of the rye, then add water three drops at a time. Somewhere in there it opens up completely.

You can't do this with a bottle already cut to 40%.
Neat

Brooklyn against Jamaica

The single malt and the Hampden rum, side by side. Two small distilleries, two completely different ideas of flavour.

Nothing in a supermarket tastes like either of these.
Good to know

Questions, answered.

How does delivery work?

We deliver locally and offer in-store pickup — the options you'll see at checkout depend on your address. As a New York package store we can't ship out of state, so delivery is limited to where we're licensed.

Do I have to be 21?

Yes. You must be 21 or older to buy, and an adult signature (21+) is required at delivery.

What if one of the bottles is out of stock?

Bundles are built from live shelf stock, so the page will stop you before that happens. If something sells through between your order and packing, we substitute an equal-or-better bottle from the same country or category and email you first — or refund that portion if you'd rather.

Can I swap a bottle?

Tell us in the order notes and we'll do our best. The bundle price is built around the specific lineup, so a swap needs to be a like-for-like from the same country or category.

Can I send it as a gift?

Yes — check out to your recipient's address inside our delivery area. Whoever accepts the delivery has to be 21+ with ID. Add a note at checkout and we'll include a card.

Is this a subscription?

No. Bundles are a one-time purchase. If you want a new one every month, that's what the Wine Club and the Craft Bartending Kit club are for.
