Barrel Proof is a whiskey lover's paradise with one of the most extensive American whiskey selections in the South, housed in a handsome, wood-paneled bar on Magazine Street. The staff are genuinely knowledgeable and happy to guide you through rare bourbons, ryes, and single malts. There's no food menu, so eat beforehand. It draws a mix of serious whiskey nerds and Garden District regulars, keeping the vibe convivial without being rowdy.
