We are excited to share a private barrel selection of 45th Parallel Richmond Rye Whiskey for our friends at Holman's Table in St. Paul, MN! 🥃✨

This bottle is exclusive to the restaurant - try it in a cocktail, like the Manhattan or Old Fashioned, or neat, or on the rocks -the choice is yours!

We are often asked if there is a way to recycle the leather straps found on our whiskey bottles - and the answer is YES! 🎉 🥃

We are currently taking leather straps that are stamped 2017 or later - you can find a large jar in the entryway of the 45th Restaurant and Retail Shop for easy collecting!
