The Spirit of the South: Why Bourbon is King at Gaslite
Whether you’re just touching down at CHS or you’re a lifelong North Charleston local heading home after a long shift, there is one spirit that always feels like a warm welcome: Bourbon. While all Bourbon is Whiskey, not all Whiskey is Bourbon! To earn the name, it must be made of at least 51% corn and aged in charred new oak containers. This gives it that signature vanilla and caramel sweetness that pairs so perfectly with our humid Carolina afternoons.
At Gaslite Liquors, we pride ourselves on being the best liquor store near CHS because we curate a selection that balances the big-name legends with hidden gems. Bourbon isn't just a drink; it’s a piece of Southern history that has fueled front-porch conversations for centuries.
The Gaslite Modern Twist: Try a Lowcountry Gold:
2 oz of your favorite mid-shelf Bourbon
.5 oz Peach Schnapps
Top with Ginger Ale and a squeeze of fresh lime.
Food Pairing: This cocktail is a dream alongside some spicy BBQ wings or salty boiled peanuts. The sweetness of the peach cuts right through the heat and salt!
