Incredible whisky selection and hyper knowledgeable staff. They regularly host wine, rum, and whisky tasting, in addition to regular festivals. Checkout their website for tasting events and schedule.

As a longtime Kensington resident, having been here several times over the years, I've never been made to feel comfortable here, as a customer. I've been here when it's busy, and when it's quiet. I might get a perfunctory hello, but never any assistance. I'm not sure if it's because I don't quite look like their regular clientele or what. A commendable selection, knowledgeable staff, or being well established is essentially worthless to those who don't feel welcome enough to ask for help or make a purchase. This is not what I expect or experience at other stores in Kensington.

Our nonprofit is incredibly grateful for the generous support we received from the Kensington Wine Market. Their donation made a direct and meaningful impact on the community we serve. It’s clear they truly care about giving back and supporting local organizations. The team was kind, responsive, and genuine. Businesses like this make a real difference, and we are thankful for their partnership. Highly recommend the Kensington Wine Market not only for their excellent work, but for their commitment to supporting the community!

Fantastic selection of whiskies and super knowledge staff. We were in town for a few days and fortunate enough to get into a SMWS tasting. Cannot say enough good things about the store and the team.

A treat as always. Andrews staff knows their stuff and selection is second to none. Tasted their latest Craigallachie cask pick and an Arran cask pick as well. Sadly don't have checked bag so couldn't buy anything aside from a beer for tonight, but of course, we will be back!
