Serving & pairing

Rye’s peppery spice is the classic base for a Manhattan or an Old Fashioned. Pairs well with charcuterie and dark chocolate.

Rye versus bourbon — what is the difference?

Both are American whiskeys aged in new charred oak. Bourbon must be at least 51% corn, which gives sweetness; rye must be at least 51% rye grain, which gives pepper, spice and a drier finish. Canadian whisky is often called “rye” by tradition even when the mash bill contains little rye.

Summer garden

A gin I cannot buy on the high street.

“A citrus gin that barely shows up in the States. Spirit Hives listed the botanicals, I ordered a 700 ml, and it became the house G and T. Not cheap. Completely worth it.”
Hannah W.Contemporary gin
Corporate gifts

Forty gifts, one conversation.

“Corporate bottles for clients. Spirit Hives suggested three price bands, one invoice, and the labels were consistent. Several clients asked where they came from.”
Tom H.40 bottles
Case order

The case made more sense.

“I drink the reposado enough that a single bottle was a habit. Switching the option to a case at Spirit Hives dropped the unit price and I stopped running out mid-month.”
Carlos M.Reposado tequila, 6-pack
First Scotch

Peat without the leap of faith.

“I wanted Islay without buying a wall of smoke. The tasting notes on Spirit Hives pointed to a gentler malt. It opened a door instead of slamming one.”
