From the Expert

We asked Shelby Whalen, on-premise sales representative with Athens Distributing, what she would personally stock if she were first starting to build her home bar. Here’s what she had to say.

Gray Whale Gin

“This gin has unique botanicals – almonds, lime, sea kelp, and mint, just to name a few. If you do not enjoy the ‘Christmas’ juniper aspect of gin, this is a great way to start your adventure with this spirit.”

Old Dominick

“Started in our state’s very own Memphis, Tennessee, Old Dominick has so much history behind its name. Not only is it affordable, but it is extremely versatile in any cocktail.”
