The Forked Vine

With the lack of excitement in Jackson, you tend to spend a lot of time hanging out at your or your friends’ houses. And there tends to be alcohol. But where to buy that alcohol can be an important question.
I find that the Forked Vine is one of the better liquor stores in town. For one, I don’t feel that I am going to get mugged outside (which you can’t say for some of the other places in town) and it also has the best selection in town.
I tend to be a beer drinker and they do have a pretty good selection of big beers (over 6% alcohol) and are pretty knowledgeable about the selection they have in stock.
They also have decent prices on all of their selections. They probably aren’t the cheapest on everything but I can say that if you are buying whiskey or vodka and aren’t buying handles, they either match or beat everyone else in town on price.
The staff is helpful in finding what you want, but aren’t pushy or overly helpful so if you want to spend time just browsing, you can be comfortable doing that.
Also, they put extra boxes out in front in a small fenced off area and this can come in handy if you need moving boxes. If you ask, they sometimes will even give you a few more.
All in all, this is a good place to pick up party supplies or just some wine or spirits to have around the house.
