    Perhaps my memories are too tinged with nostalgia, but the Brandy Library is not what I remember it to be. It feels dated now.

    Very extensive scotch selection. But wow were these pours overpriced and stingy. The atmosphere is really nice I guess.

    Great for the drinks. Not so great for cell phone signal when you are in the basement.

    Make sure you get the Jefferson Presidential 18 Bourbon. Ask for Josimar. He knows his bourbon.

    One of the best Scotch and Tequila menus in the city. Don;t get rowdy or you'll get tossed and definitely don't ask for cubes with your scotch

    They have an entire book of drinks. Quite expensive and very slow service. Although, you'll probably need the extra time to read through the big book.
