"The folks who live in Culver City off Washington Boulevard are really fortunate to be able to count two-year-old wine/liquor/plant store Bar & Garden as their neighborhood liquor locker. Imagine walking down to your corner liquor store and being able to pick up a bottle of pechuga mezcal or a 1988 armagnac. That’s this place!"

That's the opening of a recent Los Angeles magazine profile of Bar & Garden, located at 6142 W. Washington Blvd, in the Art District of Culver City.

Here are some examples of what, according to the article, quoting co-owner Marissa Mandel, you can find at Bar & Garden: 

Sullivans Cove whiskies from Tasmania: “They’re crazy in demand. There’s a French oak and American oak and a combination of the two. And I think I have all three. It got some kind of crazy rating, so people would snap them up.”

Few Single Barrel Whiskey “Bar & Garden”: “In a few weeks, we’re getting our own barrel of Few bourbon that we picked. We tasted 10 different samples, and there was one that was clearly the winner for us. It will be bottled at cask-strength, so it’ll be coming in at about 102 proof. It’s coming in two to four weeks.”

Cappelletti Elisir Novasalus Amaro: “It’s an amaro from the Dolomites. It’s resin-y and herbaceous, and it’s a nice thing to have.”

Barr Hill Spirits: “It’s not necessarily rare, but it is new to this market. We are sort of responsible for it being here because we had a client who was in Vermont working and he brought some back for us. And we petitioned our guy at Wine Warehouse to carry it and he did. It’s a really good product. It’s super smooth.”

Nahmias et Fils Mahia Moroccan Fig Spirit: “It takes five pounds of figs to distill one bottle. It’s a traditional Moroccan brandy. It’s kind of like a fig grappa with a touch of anise. We really love that one.”

Darroze armagnac: “I’ll also get some armagnac from Darroze which is amazing. They have all these different years, and it goes way back to the ’40s so hopefully this week we can get the ’88, which I love. Absolutely delicious. Single-vineyard, single-varietal. Very special and cool. Totally blows all others out of the water.”
