Drinking at home? Whiskey and Wine Off 69 has got you covered

So you set up a home bar in your apartment. Now what?

Head to Whiskey and Wine Off 69 on the Upper East Side, of course. The self-proclaimed “mecca for home bartenders”, Whiskey & Wine Off 69 was opened by Frank Giresi and offers everything needed to create the perfect cocktail. This retail store is really a one-stop destination for everything a home mixologist might need, including local and hard-to-find liquors, bar tools, specialized ice machines, and commercial wine coolers.

Gold plated strainers? Check. Japanese ice colds? Check. Mixing glasses? CHECK!

Seriously, Whiskey & Wine Off 69 is a one-stop shop and Giresi – a 25-year wine industry veteran who opened Nolita’s now-defunct Elizabeth & Vine and, later, Bowery & Vine – is more than happy to help.

An added bonus: Whiskey & Wine Off 69 offers monthly workshops with local mixologists who school guests on everything from the proper way to mix to the best garnishes. You’ll be mixing an Old Fashioned like a pro in no time!
