The Cabin John Village Shopping Center is located at 7913 Tuckerman Lane in Potomac (between the Giant and Starbucks retail stores). The store will feature more than 2,000 handpicked items with a focus on spirits and locally produced products. It will have a dedicated tasting area and event space that will be used to drive business for Maryland Made distilleries, wineries, and breweries.
“This is our store of the future and the stores we open over the next few years will follow this model, not only in terms of aesthetics and selection but in terms of the innovative shopping experience offered,” said ABS Director Kathie Durbin.
For the grand opening, and in the days that follow, some rare and allocated items will be available for purchase. Each specific highly allocated item will be limited to one bottle per customer and no more than two highly allocated bottles can be purchased per customer, per day.
