🄃 Celebrate National Bourbon Day with Arthur Cantina

🄃 Where Rare Meets Real

June 14th is National Bourbon Day, and while America’s native spirit may have its roots in Kentucky, it's cherished right here in the Bronx. At Arthur Cantina Wine & Liquor, we take bourbon seriously—no messing around when it comes to great whiskey.

Our shelves are stocked with rare, small batch, single barrel, and high-proof bourbons that turn heads and drop jaws. This isn’t your average whiskey dive—this is where collectors, connoisseurs, and curious newcomers all find something special.


What Makes Bourbon… Bourbon?

According to the TTB, bourbon must:

  • Be made in the U.S.

  • Contain at least 51% corn

  • Age in new, charred oak barrels

  • Be distilled below 160 proof

  • Enter the barrel below 125 proof

  • Be bottled at 80 proof or higher

No additives unless it's a flavored whiskey, like pecan peach whiskey.Ā 


Why Arthur Cantina Is Your Bourbon Destination

We're not a warehouse on the side of a highway. We're a family-run shop that specializes in rare and boutique bottles, with a focus on quality and exclusivity.

Our current bourbon lineup includes standouts like:

  • Blanton’s Original Single Barrel – The bourbon that became the "honey-pot" whiskey at Buffalo Trace.

  • Weller Special Reserve – A cult favorite amongst Wheated Bourbon drinkers and also known as poor mans Pappy

  • Angel’s Envy – Finished in port barrels, that secondary finish makes it one of the smoother Bourbons.Ā 

  • Bulleit – Bold, spicy, and ready for summer sipping, try our Single Barrel Private Select.

  • White Dog 375ml (Rye, Wheat and Mash Bill #1) – Great for gifts, stocking stuffers, experimenting with different barrel finishes or setting up a pre barreled sprit tasting flights!Ā 


šŸŽ FREE ENGRAVING — ALL MONTH LONG
