Which isn’t a bad thing. Turn shopping for liquor/beer/wine into shopping for the aforementioned plus cheese/crackers/gourmet food/chocolate and you’ve got yourself a whole afternoon–especially if it’s Friday and samples abound (hi, me, tipsy at Spec’s).
The new 15,000 square foot Twin Liquors Marketplace will be in the Hancock Center, just ripe for UT students. The center will be a 20-foot-long granite wine-tasting bar where the store will host daily wine and spirits tastings. It will also be the spot for educational seminars and other events. There’s also a 50-seat classroom for wine and pairing classes that can also be turned into a dining room for wine-pairing dinners. There’s also a dining room in the cellar?
Then there’s the humidor, with nearly 1,000 cigars. Well hello there fellas.
A grand opening event will take place in December … I’ll keep ya posted.
[ps: I so had this post written before this came out in the Statesman … ugh.]
