You can walk into this swanky hub not knowing a rye from a Scotch, but you’ll still be able to find something from Bar’Lees’ selection of more than 110 whiskeys. And their knowledgeable bartenders, like Dennis Dempsey, will undoubtedly help you choose the best to suit your taste, be it smoky or peppery or oaky.
