THE IMPROPER BOSTONIAN
Boston's Best Liquor Store - 2005
Charles Street Liquors
143 Charles St., Boston, MA - 617-523-5051
"Who else could you call and say, "Send over a mixed case of wine
to the house," sight unseen, untasted, and trust that you're going
to get a variety of wonderful wines? It's no surprise that Charles
Street Liquors is up to the task, with their selection of more than
800 wines. They carry 100 Single Malt Scotches and are known for
their selection of close to 1,000 beers, and they have the best tequila
you'll find. With their Friday night beer tastings, their "winekeeper
unit" that keeps wine fresh and their determination to seek out smaller,
family-owned boutique wineries around the world for wines you can't
find anywhere else, "liquor store" hardly does this place justice.
They even have a free-delivery policy: They'll drop off your booze
anywhere in Beacon Hill for a $25 minimum, and anywhere in the metro
area for a minimum of $50."
