WE KNOW WINE & SPIRITS
WE KNOW WINE & SPIRITS
At ethyl, we put a decade of wine
& spirit experience in play.
ETHYL is named after the compound ethyl alcohol (ethanol), AKA, The booze component of all wines and spirits. We provide wine / spirits education and advisement to hospitality businesses and private consumers alike, with a structure that is both engaging and approachable.
Our motto “In vino veritas, et en cupam, fiducia” is latin for “In wine truth, and in whiskey, confidence.” Our firm belief is that wine and spirits should be accessible, clearly explained, and presented without elitism. Our goal is to provide education and advisement, from affordable bottles of bubbles, to high dollar wines or scotches that are worth the price.
We can operate with almost any budget from small, entry level wine tastings, to premier and elite level wines from various vintages. If you need a sommelier for a dinner, tasting, menu development, gathering, or company function; let the Ethyl team take care of your guests.

“In the final analysis, wine is a social game. It is about human relations, hospitality, rivalry, bonding, ritual - all the mores of social life - and all under the influence.”
