Best liquor store and prices around. The owner, Nick, is a down to earth great guy that does what he can to accommodate his customers. I live 25 minutes from here and drive past multiple liquor stores to go to Smiths!

Although I am not a drinker, I absolutely appreciate this store for allowing me to help others by keeping the boxes intact which I have used to help people move. Kudos to them for helping me help others!!!

This is easily the best liquor store around. They actually engage with customers; considering adding products they like, having regular sampling events to introduce you to new products, or simply helping you find what you need.

The owner is fantabulous!!! I asked him if he could get bigger bottles of vanilla vodka and he did. I dont have to spend as much money because I dont have to buy my vodka as often. He is down to earth and very helpful. They have weekly taste testing of different kinds of alcohol... not just wine...

I love cream sherry! And I was so happy that they sold Christian Brothers cream sherry. I will be a regular customer. And I liked the bonus of being able to purchase lottery items too. TY!

Lovely experience here this morning, I came in here in a rush looking for gifts for a housewarming party. The prices were so good compared to what Im used to that I bought more than I had planned and the service from the owner was exceptional as well. He helped me pick out liquors based on my friends tastes. And BONUS POINTS: they even carried my favorite wine, Jacobs Creek Double Barrel Cabernet!!!!!!! (Super hard to find in other shops nearby)

I travel for work to Albany each week, and have found Smith Colonie Liquor to be my only liquor store I will stop at during my stay. From day 1, the owner welcomes me every time I enter, has had suggestions for my specific tastes, and has even order items not already in his store. For me, this is top notch service, and will continue coming here for many more stays while here in Colonie!! So Thank You Smith Colonie Liquor for exceeding my expectations.........

Stopped by to check the bourbon selection and was asking about a special release bottle of high west. The owner who was a nice guy said the didn’t have it, but just got their shipment for pappy in and was really nice to offer me a bottle. I happily answered yes and upon checkout informed me the total was $350 before tax for 12 year. MSRP from buffal trace is $65. That is crazy second hand prices before it even leaves the store. No thanks I’ll look elsewhere.
