What is the best liquor store in NYC and the boroughs for unusual and hard to find fine spirits? I am a regular at LeNell's in Red Hook and at Astor Wines & Spirits, but I am looking for other places that have some of the more...

LeNell's in Red Hook has it, and from quite a few producers. 416 Van Brunt St. Brooklyn, NY 11231 (718) 360-0838 www.lenells.com

I’ve seen it in Red Hook at LeNell's. 416 Van Brunt Street b/t Coffey & Van Dyke, Brooklyn NY 11231 Link: http://www.lenells.com
