In the Pee Dee region, it’s long been understood that, if you are looking for a niche item or a beverage off the beaten path, Micky Finn’s is the place you want to look.

It’s constantly adding new products to the shelves every week.
That’s just what the store is doing this week with Noelia’s Coquito, a new product in the...
The holidays are fast approaching and there’s always a lot to look forward to this time of year. Families coming together for meals and celebrations and enjoying one another’s company is always one of the most important and valuable experiences of the holidays. And, of course, it’s not solely family but friends as well. All the parties, dinners, and events make the holidays the most anticipated time of the year. It also makes them the busiest and, unfortunately, most stressful time of year as we...
Thanksgiving is only days away and that means family dinners and Friendsgivings are just around the corner as well. Obviously, there is always a great deal of consideration given to the food menu. But one aspect of Thanksgiving is often overlooked – the wine.
While wine is a staple at Thanksgiving, it’s not always the right wine. Some wines pair better with Turkey and dressing than others and the quality of the wine is also something to keep in mind when assembling your dinner drink menu. Indeed...
It’s the middle of November and the season of Thanksgiving dinners, Christmas parties, celebrations, work functions, and family get togethers has officially arrived.

With all that in mind, if you’re in the process of preparing for the holidays, Micky Finn’s is way ahead of you. The store has been preparing for months an...

With the 2024 elections behind us, there’s a lot to look forward to in Florence County regarding the future of alcohol laws. That’s because, on November 5, Florence County voters overwhelmingly voted to approve the referendum allowing Sunday Beer and Wine sales in Florence County.
While the City of Florence had already approved Sunday Beer and Wine sales, the County had yet to do so, making Florence County one of the last holdouts on the issue. This meant that Florence was surrounded by counties...
In June, 2024, Micky Finn’s announced that it was upping its game with an intensified commitment to bringing rare and highly sought-after items to all three of its locations. It’s now November, and it’s undeniably clear that the store is living up to its commitment.

If you've ever seen a truly talented bartender at work, you quickly realized that bartending is more than just pouring drinks, it's both a science and an art. The tools, ingredients, methods and the presentation are all part of a long tradition of proper pouring and mixing that has been honed into a science in and of itself over the course of many years. But it is also one that constantly evolves and expands as new drinks, combinations, ingredients, and products appear.
Indeed, it is the creative...

They say whisky'll kill you, but I don't think it will
I'm ridin' with you to the top of the hill
-- Bob Dylan, Nettie Moore
I've wanted to try Bob Dylan's Heaven's Door Whiskey ever since I heard about Dylan's new venture with Spirits Investment Partnership. I'll confess, my interest in trying the whiskey came more from an interest in Dylan's music more than the drink itself but, that being said, who doesn't like a good whiskey, endorsed and sold by Dylan or not?
For those who are not aware of the...

Let's face it, mini bottles are fun. They might even be more fun than the bigger bottles (but that's not a debate we are willing to wade into).
What we are willing to claim, however, is that more options and more choices are a good thing and, for that reason, Micky Finn's is dedicated to providing those options, big and small.
In addition to having the largest liquor selection in Florence and the Pee Dee, Micky Finn's new location also carries the biggest mini bottle selection in the area.

Micky Finn's Liquor and Beverage Warehouse was pleased to host a recent visit by Carolina AM of WFXB FOX TV. The local news show was on site to take a look at the new Beverage Warehouse and to interview Sam Tinsley, the Executive Director of the Florence Wine and Food Festival.
Tinsley described the new Micky Finn's location as a "phoenix rising from the ashes at this exit" because of the "unreal amount of cars every single day with the Buc-cee's traffic and I-95."
"They've got everything that a l...

If you're a liquor connoisseur, you know by now that finding the products you want at the prices you can afford can be a confusing and sometimes frustrating experience, particularly if the product you're looking for isn't available in your state.
