The editorial take
Citizen Soul pairs a serious spirits program with a deep wine list. The bar pours craft beers on tap and builds its reputation on artisanal cocktails. Bourbon drinkers can compare Buffalo Trace, Blanton's, and Angel's Envy, while wine enthusiasts face over 100 selections spanning California and beyond.
- What should I order?
- Start with a pour of Blanton's bourbon (25) or Whistle Pig 10-year rye (20) to gauge the spirits program. Wine drinkers can pick the Cliff Lede Sauvignon Blanc '23 (70) from Napa or the Talley Vineyards Chardonnay '21 (78) from San Luis Obispo. For tequila, Don Julio 1942 (60) is a splurge worth considering.
- Who will enjoy this place?
- Bourbon and rye enthusiasts will find a range from Buffalo Trace to Whistle Pig, while scotch drinkers can try Lagavulin. Wine collectors will appreciate the reserve-heavy list and the chance to attend a Kiona wine pairing dinner. The cocktail focus and 20 taps also give mixed-drink and beer fans a reason to visit.
- When should I go?
- Plan a visit around the Kiona Wine Pairing dinner on September 15, 2026, which pairs a curated multi-course menu with wine. For a standard pour, weekday evenings may offer more time to explore the extensive lists.
- What should I expect to spend?
- Spirits pours run from 8 to 120, with bourbons like Buffalo Trace at 13 and Blanton's at 25. Wine by the bottle starts at 36 for a Laurent-Perrier 375ML and climbs to 900 for Colgin 'IX'.
- What makes the beverage program distinctive?
- The spirits list spans eight categories with rare bottles such as Old Rip Van Winkle and Whistle Pig Boss Hog. The wine program stands out for its scale—over 100 selections—and for hosting exclusive pairing dinners like the Kiona event, which pairs a multi-course menu with wines.
