Beaujolais is fresh, fruity, and festive. Beaujolais is an every night delight, priced right. Beaujolais is gravitas and a true expression of terroir. Beaujolais is conviviality; the tie that binds friends, old and new. Beaujolais is family, food, and fun. Most of all, Beaujolais is for sharing, on your best days and every day.

Travel with us for a few minutes to Beaujolais. Settled in the rolling hills just south of Burgundy, it’s a region immensely appreciated by a few (mostly those who work in wine) and undiscovered (or misunderstood) by many.

A traditional Godfather cocktail is made of equal parts scotch and amaretto. A little experimentation led us to our new favorite cocktail. We added coffee liqueur and chocolate bitters to the mix for a "the best part of wakin' up" kind of taste.
