“Glenfiddich is one of the last remaining family-owned distilleries in Scotland. It was the first to export single malts commercially in the early 1960s,” said Reserve 101 co-owner and whiskey expert Mike Raymond. “Many single malt lovers started with Glenfiddich. Here’s a chance for our customers to try some of the brand’s top whiskeys.”
The Glenfiddich Distillery is located in the heart of the Scottish Highlands. The name means “valley of the deer” in Gaelic. Built by hand in 1886 by founder William Grant and his nine children, the distillery today produces the world’s most awarded single malt. First production was on Christmas Day in 1887.
Reserve 101, “not your daddy’s whiskey bar,” is located at the corner of Caroline and Dallas, next to Dirt Bar and across from House of Blues. It won the “People’s Choice” award for best bar atmosphere in this year’s Houston Press “Best of Houston” competition and, has the finest whiskey selection in the Southwest, with 200 varieties of popular and small-batch, hard-to-find whiskeys from around the world. Reserve 101 is expanding its whiskey portfolio to 300 brands.
The downtown Houston bar will begin to offer evening food service this Fall in an arrangement with Bernie’s Burger Bus owner Justin Turner. It has an events room ideally suited for holiday parties and other private gatherings. The neighborhood establishment is also known for its Signature Cocktails and infusions, organic material steeped in liquor to impart distinctive flavors.
“Happy Hour,” with dollar-off beers and wines and half-price signature cocktails runs from 2 p.m. to 6 p.m., Monday through Friday with specials just about every day of the week, including Sundays.
