I came here looking for Zubrowka and Krupnik and they had both I was happy to see. They carry the popular brand of Krupnik, "Old Krupnik," but they do not have the exact same Zubrowka that I had in Poland. I think this is due to FDA reasons and they have another version of it called "Zu."
I was a little disappointed with the price since it is the same price ($25.99) as the Zu at my local liquor shop in Manhattan. This is also double the price of the real Zubrowka in Poland. I thought that it would have been much cheaper in this area with all the Polish shops and it not being Manhattan. Additionally, having to deal with the mythical G "train" (by train I mean shuttle bus as I have yet to see the actual train) just wasn't worth it.
I wont be coming back here often since the Zu seems to be all over NYC at the same price, but maybe once more to check out the other shops in the area.
This liquor/wine shop is off the Nassau G stop, but on the Norman exit. The store has a huge selection of wine. I am not a wine expert, but it I do enjoy it and it is my most frequently consumed alcoholic beverage. For a New York City wine/liquor stop right off the train, there were many, many bottles to choose from. The selection appeared to be heavier on the European/Old World selection. My guess is that the shop may have some harder-to-find wines from Eastern Euro countries. For example, I saw a few bottles advertised as Georgian Wine. Nevertheless, I nabbed a bottle advertising itself as "sustainable." I figured, all things being equal (=I have no idea what I'm looking for), might as well go for sustainable. The wine was from Sicily. I really, really enjoyed it.
Pretty large liquor store, very low prices. Accessible to nearly all of Greenpoint and North Williamsburg. To give you an idea, they have like 10-15 brands of cognac when most places have 1-2, if any at all. The same robust supply applies to the rest of their liquor – vodka, whiskey, rum, and especially vodka – this is a polish run place, and a lot of people who come here are polish and they like their vodka.
