Spirits & Spice

We were casually strolling through the Venetian Grand Canal Shoppes when my wife pulls me into this spirits-spices-vinegars-oil-wine boutique gift shop. The sales persons were kind, helpful, and a joy to converse with. They explained that whatever you love (see above listed examples), they have something which may very well be your jam. We looked around and stumbled onto this Peanut Butter Whisky bottle and inquired further. Brian told us it wasn't as sweet as others you may have tried (i.e. Skrewball) as it's small batch created, has real peanuts, and is sweetened with real sugar cane (not high fructose corn syrup). Brian gave us a sample and we were SOLD! Bought their biggest bottle 750ml! Shared it with close friends and that bottle was the hit of the night! We'll be sipping on the remains back in San Diego during special occasions. If you like peanut butter, this makes for a great shot drink or a sipping whiskey. The Vegas store is well stocked, tidy, stress-free, and the staff is wonderful (especially Brian who helped us). He personalized the bottle for us and put a cute bow on it and wrapped it carefully so as to protect it during transit. Everything done was top notch from the moment we entered the store 'till we left with our bottle. Pay this small family-owned business a visit, you'll be amazingly surprised! CHEERS!!!

I love this little shop! What a fun find! You walk in to their outstanding collection of small batch spirits from all over the world. They offer samples of everything's they offer. The gentleman who was helping me was really nice and knowledgeable, every recommendation he had for me was spot on. They have exotic liquors and a great variety of whiskeys. Another fun surprise is their boutique selection of oils and vinegars, they have a great variety of flavors and blends. I left with a French cognac and some oils and vinegars for my charcuterie board later ;)

One of the few places we always stop at during a trip to Las Vegas. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable. They seem to really love their jobs. The selection of small batch liquor is amazing. My husband always comes home with a couple of bottles of whiskey. The pre-mixed spices, olive oils, and vinegars are my favorites. I came home with 4 bottles of spices, garlic & truffle infused olive oil, and an amazing aged balsamic. Can't wait until we go back next year. *note: check out their website! They ship!!!

Honestly, there isn't anything negative I could say about this place. My partner and I wandered in here on our vacation and met Nick who is a fantastic and knowledgeable salesman. Originally we walked in to pick up souvenirs and since myself and my friends are bartenders, what better gift than a Vegas made spirit? Nick helped me sort through the plethora of liquor the shop has to offer and gave us plenty of samples! Since we traveled without checked bags, Nick offered to ship it for us and that was the end of my bank account lol. Long story short, great service, excellent liquor, I recommend

My husband and I came here with my sister-in-law and cousin, to check out their selection. It's well lit, clean and definitely catches your eye from the outside looking in because of all the bottles that you can choose from. Upon walking in, we were greeted by Nick and he checked our IDs to make sure we were 21 and over. From there we just started asking him questions about the different alcohols that they had, we were looking for something for my father-in-law for Christmas, and I believe he prefers bourbon so we had asked Nick about the different Bourbons that they carried. He explained the differences between them, the different notes and even gave us samples of a few that we were interested in. He went on to explain a few different bourbons to the rest of our party but the other half of the store really caught my eye so I wandered off. They have a great selection on the left side of the store of Vinegars and Oils which surprised me, because I thought they only sold alcohol here. I started perusing through the oils, and I found a few that caught my attention that I wanted to look a little further into. There was one specifically that was a garlic and cilantro infused oil, and when I asked Nick about it, he said that although you could taste a bit of the garlic, the cilantro was the stronger scent and flavor in it. He gave me a little sample to taste which I really appreciated and honestly that's probably what sold me on buying a bottle to take back home with me. It's absolutely delicious, I personally love cilantro and garlic, so this oil was meant for me! Then Nick asked if I wanted to taste his favorite oil, and I said yes, so he pointed me to the black truffle garlic butter oil... When I tell you, I was absolutely blown away by the flavor, I am not exaggerating! I have never in my life tried anything with black truffle in it so, of course, I have nothing to compare it to you, but this was absolutely delicious. In the end, we did not end up buying any alcohol, but I did buy a bottle of the cilantro and garlic oil. They have three different sized bottles that you can fill with the oils or vinegar's, and that determines the price, they also have different bottle designs that you can choose from at the very bottom of all the oils which I thought were very adorable because they had a gingerbread man one! Overall, our experience from start to finish was very pleasant here, we didn't feel rushed or looked down on for our many questions in the different selections that they had here. I really enjoyed the selection of olive oil's that they had as well. I found out you can actually order online! And you can have it shipped to you, and that's the olive oil's, vinegars and alcohols as well. I really like that because I did not end up buying the black truffle oil but I really want a bottle, so I think I will end up ordering some. I do have to make a special shout out to Nick! Upon entering, he just made us feel very comfortable, answered all of our questions to our satisfaction, and even went above and beyond providing samples and asking if we wanted to try new things without being pushy. I really appreciated his service and I think he's a great employee! (to the guy at the register when I asked Nick his name, and how to spell it, I told you I was not going to leave a negative review about Nick! XD)

Great customer service, great quality of liquor.He was very knowledgeable, patient, enthusiastic, and not pushy. (Idk how enthusiastic and pushy could come in a same sentence, but he was.)I don't even drink much, but the store was so cute and fantastic, and made me curious.I was never fan of tequila until i tried these. Tasting these made me curious about other good quality Tequilas. They were quite pricy, but my husband thinks they are underrated, so i guess it's worth it.We ordered there, and shipped them to CA, and we didn't have to pay tax.

Had the BEST and most unexpected experience at Spirits & Spice. My man and I just got off an Alaskan cruise where we sampled MANY delicious whiskeys from around the world, We walked into Spirits & Spice and immediately felt like celebrities and that we were home (one of the cashiers thought we were YouTube celebrities and started geeking out...we're not) The employees were kind, knowledgable, generous and helpful. You can try unlimited tasting samples, which helped us in deciding what to buy. We were impressed by our assistant's bredth of knowledge. Once we made the difficult decision on what to buy, we were happily told that we'd save extra $$$$ by shipping it to oursellves. They alo gifted us with a delicious Mexican liqour that we can't wait to try. The shipment of our order arrived in less than 48 hourrs and was securily packaged for free. I highly recommend stopping in. We can't wait to visit next time.

This is a little slice of heaven if you enjoy a drink or 10. What's special about this location you are encouraged to try before you buy. That is rare everywhere and anywhere and the choices on top of choices make it hard to try and not buy. This is a must stop taste and shop. Here I must say don't only drink responsibly please shop responsibly.

DO NOT listen to the sales pitch about their bourbon.No matter what they say it's a private label bottled in Wisconsin and 5 years old at best. They are charging 3x retail and will outright lie about its origin and quality.Regrettably my wife bought me a gift bottle and once I saw the label I realized she had been swindled. She was "helped" in the store and steered towards a particular version that was "as good as Pappy." Well there is no 5 year bourbon on earth that is worth $169 for a 350ml. A 750ml of this same product is $92 online and probably not even worth that.This place is no different than the skin cream and lotion hawkers in the hallways. Shameless hucksters.

Bryan was fantastic! Extremely knowledgable and very accommodating. Was not a "pushy" salesman but rather made great suggestions based on our tastes. Incredible products . Well done!
