The Best Booze at Every Price

Buying liquor can be confusing. Which ones are worth it? Is this one a good value? What should I buy when I want something in the middle? It's hard to decide what to buy, when.

We've put together a list of our favorite bargains, everyday purchases and splurge-worthy booze.

Gin Good Value

Dorothy Parker New York Gin (~ $30/bottle)

This gin is delicious in a cocktail or on it's own. It's made with dried hibiscus and elderberries, with notes of citrus. Dorothy Parker is made by NY Distilling Co., and named after the poet Dorothy Parker.

Mid-level

Hendricks (~ $45/bottle)

Probably one of the most famous gins, Hendrick's does not disappoint. Made in Scotland, Hendrick's uses cucumber and rose petal, which gives it (a delicious) and unique flavor, and certainly aided in its status as a fan favorite.

Splurge

Monkey 47 (~$75/bottle)

It's been said that this is one of the best gins available. Monkey 47 is made by Black Forrest Distillers, and uses 47 different botanicals. It's complex, with notes of juniper and botanicals. If you are looking for a splurge, this will do the trick.

Tequila Good Value

Espolon (~$25/bottle)

This tequila has become a go-to for many bartenders, and for good reason. It's perfect for shaking up in cocktails, has a smooth taste and an accessible price point. It's also won a whole bunch of awards. What's not to love?
