Sherry's Wine & Spirits - Washington, District of Columbia

Michael Mercer

Jackpot! After trying numerous on line sites to order for shipping, finally I've found one that stands by their product, is pleasant to work with and has good inventory and great prices. Sure, you can find a few items cheaper on other sites but personally, using one site (that doesn't buffer or disappear on you) makes buying more enjoyable and efficient.
I called with a question and spoke with Andy (owner I think?) who was more than just knowledgeable. He didn't have to put me on hold to find answers and he made some great suggestions.
Thank you to the crew at Sherry's and a special thank you to Andy.
All the best and happy holidays,
Michael Mercer

Went in looking for tequila! Met Nick and he was amazing at pointing me to really quality tequilas! Once he knew I was a big tequila person! They have a permanent customer in me! Please please check them out! Very very knowable about what they are selling

We were at the next store and I got a vine. That was my favorite and the prices were reasonable. I love that they have a lot of kind of wines at the store. They had a lot of Bordeaux!! I got this one and love the taste of it! The staff were very kind and helpful

My recent visit to Sherry's Liquor was nothing short of delightful. I was thoroughly impressed by the extensive wine knowledge displayed by the Manager, Priyest. His recommendations were spot-on, and it added an extra layer of enjoyment to my wine selection.

What truly stood out, however, was the amazing service provided by Priyest. His attention to detail, friendly demeanor, and willingness to ensure a positive experience made my visit exceptional. It's clear that customer satisfaction is a top priority at Sherry's Liquor.

I highly recommend this local gem. Cheers to a wonderful experience!

Demolished box that they taped together. Asked for a discount or a new box which we didn’t get. Got charged full price. Full price for something in less than ideal condition is pretty unfair especially with carbonated cans that can be pretty shaken up.

I have been to other liquor stores that would give this half off. Won’t be coming back.

A wonderland for anyone interested in spirits and liqueurs. They have a broader selection than just about any store I’ve been to. (And they have just as much wine, too). If you need something obscure, odds are they have it. Very helpful staff who know the inventory well. Prices for most things are equivalent to what you find elsewhere, with some of the higher end items being a little more expensive.

This store is: A Bourbon Collector’s Wet Dream! Coming from the Florida panhandle where people lineup outside stores before opening on store’s delivery days for allocated items that are not even guaranteed to be restocked…

This was such a pleasant surprise to me. I saw editions and sizes of stuff I didn’t even know existed! The entire Colonel EH Taylor & Weller lineup?! PAPPY?! Multiple editions of Blanton’s and in 50mL bottles? Weller In 1.75L bottles

I sent a picture to my group chat and ended up taking home around 17 bottles.

*Note* Everything in my last photo wasn’t all purchased in this store but were my finds for the entire day)

Critiques: The store feels like a hoarder’s library. They had an oversupply of stock to put on shelves / storage so lots of boxes and bottles were just on the ground in an already tight walk area. Many of the items didn’t have price labels so I had to pester the cashier many times for price checks. The gentlemen had great customer service skills but the lady seemed annoyed just in general being at work.

Overall: The Euphoria I felt seeing the selection they had trumps all flaws for me and if you are aware of the primary & secondary bourbon market, the majority of their items in my opinion are reasonably & commonly priced. I did see a couple of head scratchers.

~ I noticed many reviews bashing the store for their secondary market prices or them not willing to barter / match prices… and I think those same people don’t understand the bourbon market nowadays and that at the end of the day it’s a business. If it’s out of your budget then leave and go somewhere else? If you saw it cheaper else where then go back and buy it there? The fact this store has these rare items readily available with plentiful stock gives me the impression they are jumping through hoops or paying more than average store cost to keep them in stock so they must turn a profit.

Regardless: After hauling all my gnarly finds and posting a picture everyone wanted to know about Sherry’s and I got paid to actually make another trip to DC to pick up unicorn-esque-rarity items a week later for other collector friends. Sherry’s is forever engraved in my mind. Thank you for existing!

This is my neighborhood store, and they should be ashamed for their prices. They marked up Sir Davis, a whiskey by Beyoncé, by 100%. The bottles retail for $84.99, and they are selling them for a cool $165. Now, some might excuse this as the price of doing business, but knowing that predominately black customers will come in requesting the liquor and doubling the price is beyond capitalist. It's racist, and I won't be patronizing this place again.
