Bottle Storage

A spirits discovery cabinet: whiskey, tequila, absinthe and the odd bottles worth knowing, with the stories behind what is in your glass.

The site as we found it

Site: bottlestorage.co.za
Focus: Spirits & liquor discovery
Region: South Africa
Style: Curious, story-driven
On the wall: Buyer #25, Sept 2026

Bottle Storage is a South African spirits discovery site: part tasting notes, part storytelling, part reference shelf. It covers the big categories like whiskey and tequila, and goes hunting beyond them for the bottles most drinkers have never heard of.

Why it’s worth your time

The absinthe deep dive is a good sample of the house style: history, myth and practical buying sense in one piece. The exotic liquors tour does the same at global scale, and the Today I Found Out section keeps the trivia flowing between the serious pours. It is the rare drinks site that respects both the beginner and the collector.

Who it’s for

Home-bar builders, gift buyers, and anyone who has stood in a bottle store wondering what half the shelf actually is.

One honest caveat

Taste is personal; treat the recommendations as a well-informed starting point rather than gospel.

The verdict: a well-stocked cabinet of a site. Come curious, leave with a shopping list.
