“Bristol is a vibrant and exciting city and Bedminster is a great district of independent businesses,” said Katy.
“Spirited is all about conviviality and sharing – sharing spirits, imparting knowledge, exchanging stories, revealing experiences.
“I am looking forward to building relationships with my regular customers and giving a warm welcome to all newcomers. The spirit of a good club but without the membership!
“I want to share the fun I’ve always experienced in the industry with others and advise those looking for just the right bottle for themselves, for a present for friends and family or corporate gifts.
“Sharing drinking is such an integral part of life in many cultures and this is the spirit behind this special one-off new Bristol business.
“Part bar and part shop, personal attention helps ensure customers find what is right for them.
“The relaxed approach offers the opportunity to spend some time in the shop, browsing the shelves, having a chat about whisky, spirits and wines and sampling some of the wares.”
