Cork & Barrel Spirit Merchants
Private liquor store in Athlone Court selling wine, craft beer and spirits, with tastings on Friday and Saturday afternoons.
Known for single malts from Scotland, Ireland and Japan, and weekend tastings
Our take
Cork & Barrel calls itself the village wine shop. Its two managers, Barbara Reid and Keith Watt, write the shop's blog themselves. The shelves lean toward Italian wine, craft beer and whisky, and they will help plan the drinks for a wedding or a party.
Local tipTastings run Friday and Saturday afternoons. It's open 9 to 10 every day, which helps when you remember the dinner-party bottle at 9:30.
