Few could have predicted the unparalleled rise in whiskey popularity over the past decade. Humble bottlings that were gems for connoisseurs in the know turned into overnight objects of desire and have transformed the shape of the whiskey market. With the rise in demand and the limited production available, producers such as those listed above have become unicorns on the shelves of even the best stocked liquor stores and unattainable in the secondary market. Like a fine wine these whiskeys are made to be savored and shared with good company or treasured and cherished like a watch passed through generations; either way, no collection is complete without them.

Included:
"Once in a Lifetime" Bourbon Collection:

• Weller Full Proof Binny's Handpick

The phrase "Super Tuscan" has diluted since the 1980's but it inherently represents something unique coming from the region of Tuscany. These three producers from Bolgheri were undoubtedly the first to rebel against tradition and bottle wines exclusively made of International varietals including Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, and Merlot. In the last three decades they have established themselves as the benchmark for this category and have paved the way for countless of peers. 2019 has been rated as an exceptional vintage from the region and is arguable one of the best since 2016. These wines will gracefully mature for the next two decades and are a must-have for any connoisseur of wine Italian or other.

• 2019 Tenuta dell'Ornellaia
• 2019 Tenuta San Guido Sassicaia
