Nice bottle shop and bar with Old Dusties of spirits to purchase by the bottle or the drink. The spirit of the place is antique but the decor is modern and clean. The downstairs bar has couches and bar stools and more comfortable seating for hanging out. You can get whiskey new and old for pretty good prices. Upstairs is the bottle shop where you can browse all kinds of spirits and buy bottles or sample from the bar. They have four shelves of bottles that rotate out priced at $3, $5, $10, $15 for 1/4 oz. I tried an expression from my birth year which was fun. 1/4 oz isn't much, so maybe get a double if you really wanna savor something. If you're a collector, you'll have a good time here. read more

Revival Vintage Bottle shop - 1967 Cream of Kentucky. A tasty pour as old as me! - Whiskey Bars Near Me - Covington, Kentucky

As an industry worker myself, I strongly believe in using reviews for positive reasons only. My boyfriend, who's from Newport, and I were visiting from Phoenix for his grandpa's 80th birthday and we found this place on our last 2 days of our trip and were there till close both days; shouts out to BILLY!!! Legit such a relatable, calm, and knowledgeable individual. My boyfriend and I both said it was our favorite bar to hang out at during the trip. We had an opportunity to speak with Brad as well and the concept he's created is so impressive and inclusive. We'll be back in the next few months and 100% Revival will be a part of our vacation plans. Thanks Billy for being such a homie and creating a safe watering hole for us. read more

This is a cute spot in Cincinnati to check out. They truly have a wide range or vintage liquors available to try and purchase depending on your plans. There are two bars located in the facility, one down stairs and a smaller one upstairs. I was able to try a 1960 tequila which was really cool! If you are in Cincinnati stop by and check this place out. There is no food inside but you can order from other locations and have it delivered there. There are a few couches to lounge on and plenty of seating at the bar. I can not wait to stop through again when I'm in the city. read more

This place is FABULOUS and the Yelp event was awesome! The treats that we had from the Cuban sandwich with the corn, blackberry tart, cupcakes, sample of our old/new beverage and the representative offering information on healing was very knowledgeable. My sample drink of choice was the Seagram's 7. The "old" version was very tasteful. Store associate was very informative about the selections. This is a cute place for date night. read more

100% recommend you check this place out! I visited here for a Yelp Elite event and want to make sure and give this small business lots of love! Buying and selling vintage spirits can be a very difficult business and I appreciate the hard work the owner/staff do here to give such a unique experience for customers. You can literally try scotch/bourbon that would normally cost hundreds of dollars a bottle but only pay a small fraction of that. They also have a large variety of vintage bottles for sale on the second floor that you can purchase and take home. ALSO, they have a full bar! So if you're not into spirits, they do mixed drinks and have beer. It has a cozy atmosphere that you could sit and chat while having drinks. I'll be going here again and look forward to the next scotches I'll sample. read more

I LOVE this place! Stopped in to grab a drink at the bar and experienced the Canadian Lights cocktail. It was seriously one THE BEST old-fashioneds I have had. Prepared with Canadian Whiskey and pure maple syrup and a surprise ingredient, it made my taste buds do a boogie. Cocktail in hand, I walked upstairs to check out their spirit shop. It was such a cool space with vintage bottles, dating as far back as a century. If bottles could talk, I wonder what story they would tell. So interesting. I ended my trip at the tasting station. You can actually do 1/4 oz pours at affordable prices. This allows you to explore several varieties of spirits, without hurting your pocketbook. The owner Bob, was so cool and knowledgable. He encouraged me to try scotch for the first time. Now I am on a quest to learn more. Shout out to Bob and staff. My trip was fun and memorable. I plan to return soon and often. Cheers! read more

Revival's space on Madison is absolutely beautiful! The downstairs bar area is a great space with different tables for gathering and the upstairs has a huge selection of vintage bottles as well as a tasting bar. Make sure to stop by and learn about parties and group events too. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable while the space is moody and perfect for a night out. read more

Amazing Cincinnati area spot with vintage bottles I was just in Cincinnati for a conference and was blown away by this new-ish bar/bottle shop that features old, dusty bottles. The thing that particularly amazed me was the low prices of the pours of the dusties. If you're on the bourbon trail or visiting the Cincinnati area, I highly recommend it. Revival in Covington, KY, just across the river from Cincinnati. Similar to Neat in Louisville but much cheaper for pours. Different vibe, different city. They had pours of Taylor before Buffalo Trace bought them out, 1970s Beam, Little Book Chapter 3 (for only $15 a pour), and many store picks. My favorite was their Old Forester Barrel Strength. The owner, Brad, is just a local whiskey enthusiast & former Verizon salesman who took this up. SUPER nice guy and generous with the pours and prices. read more

Really cool place. Hand crafted drinks on the first floor and a world of history upstairs. A blast from the past. Highly recommend this place for the collector or the casual Bourbon drinker read more

New address! 614 Madison Ave. Covington, KY 41011. Don't go to the closed 8th street location. You have to check this place out if you're into spirits. They've got essential a museum of old bottles for sale and a selection of vintage spirits to taste as well. The owner Brad is extremely passionate about what he does and has always exceeded our expectations. Jason at the bar is an awesome bartender and a great conversationalist. They recently moved from a 600 sq. ft. location to this spot on Madison that's 10x as big. Definitely give them a shot and check out their absolutely incredible selection of vintage (and a few new) spirits! read more

This place is a hidden gem in the heart of Covington, Ky. As soon I walked in it was so inviting. The bartender suggested we go check the upstairs out. Omg! I'm talking the amount of vintage alcohol was so impressive. They also offer very affordable tastings of vintage alcohol, about a half of a shot. Just enough to appreciate the taste of alcohol from the 70's, 80' and so on. The owner shared his story with us and it was amazing. I will be back. The bathrooms smelled amazing and were super clean. read more

I thought for sure I reviewed but I guess not. Friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming. I love hearing about current booze vs old days. Some of these older offerings are the best shots I've ever had. Brad is a wealth of knowledge. The concept is a collection of vintage spirits for sale. Looking at the bottles of the past and then having a taste is what I consider a great time. Please check them out! read more

What is not to like. A bourbon bar who specializes in old/hard to find bourbons. My wife and I stopped in with some friends and enjoyed tasting Bourbons we have only heard of and probably will never get a chance to try again. So if you want something different from your standard Bourbon Bar, I suggest you give Revival a chance. read more

Awesome place playing the long game in this current bourbon boom. Super nice atmosphere with the bar and open area downstairs and the incredible museum of vintage bottles for sale upstairs. Very affordable pours on vintage bottles and each time you go here I can guarantee you will have an opportunity to try something new and unique. Brad and crew are doing an incredible job and this place is a must stop when in Covington. read more

Heard about this place @ New Riff Distilling. Went to check it out last December. First floor has a full bar with bourbon, beer, wine & cocktails. The co-owner, Brad, gave me a tour of the 2nd floor bottle shop which if you haven't seen, is quite impressive. It's like a museum/library of vintage liquors. The prices for 1/2oz & 1/4oz pours are extremely fair($3-$20), and with them being that size, you can try 3 or 4 different ones and still be able to drive. The overall vibe/atmosphere is very cool and welcoming. If you like bourbon, this has to be on your list! read more

Great to see a fun business get bigger by being friendly and offering a new experience for bourbon fans. This was our first visit to the new facility and really enjoyed the added space. The owner is always friendly and informative to everyone who walks in the door. We tried the Golden Wedding from 1964 and the new Nashville Barrel Rye. Revival is always a must stop location when we are in town. Definitely recommend a stop in to see rare liquors. read more

Wow, first review of this place! Wish I had more time to stay and hang out with Brad, but will definitely have to be back. I really enjoy learning about the history of bottles and brands.

What an amazing find wandering around Covington! Brad, one of the owners, was super awesome sharing his vast knowledge of vintage spirits and helping us decide all the different things to try. This will be a several times a year destination for a few of us out of towners that were lucky enough to stumble upon Revival! Thank you Brad!! read more

Never seen anything like this place. The owner buys and sells vintage bottles of liquor. The space offers new and used bottle of spirits in a small kitschy space. They also have a tasting bar where you can sample bottles. The owner said you can sample any bottle but I will have to investigate further how exactly this works. This is definitely a must see if you are in the area. There apparently opening a larger space around the corner with a full bar, which should be quite an experience. read more

This one of a kind experience was on our list for our visit to the Covington area and so glad we knew about it ahead of time! Walk into this shop filled with loads of bottles, a virtual bourbon Time Machine. The shopkeeper knows his stuff. Enjoy some time at the bar and tasting items which may otherwise be out of your reach if you had to buy a whole bottle or if you just aren't ready to commit. A very fun stop! read more

This place is fantastic. Excellent whiskey in bottles rescued from the obscurity of estates. The selection and knowledge were fantastic. This was one of the best hours of whiskey tasting I have ever spent. The difference between some of the bourbon I drink today, and what was bottled 70+ years ago was wonderful to experience. If you are a whiskey drinker, especially bourbon, you need to include a stop here on any bourbon trail tour, or visit to the Covington area. read more
