Housed in a new building and home to one of the finest selections of alcoholic beverages in the area, Dolores\u2019 newest liquor store, GST Liquors, is sure to be a hit.<\/p>\n

Located at the intersection of 11th and Railroad avenues, the recently opened store will offer wine, tequila, vodka, gin, whiskey and a variety of other beverages.<\/p>\n

In addition to GST\u2019s beverage selection, the business houses a humidor and will offer cigars and other tobacco products. The store will also offer wine charms, gift bags, wine holders and liquor racks.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have a very large selection,\u201d store manager Linda Johnson said. \u201cWe have everything from high-end wine to box wine. We\u2019ve also got some high-end whiskeys, high-end bourbons and high-end tequilas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Owned by local resident Grant Smith, GST Liquors will also offer a full service drive through window, which will be the first of its kind in Dolores.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re going to have the friendliest staff around,\u201d Johnson said. \u201cCustomer service is going to be our goal.\u201d<\/p>\n

Hoping to provide more than just a positive in-store experience however, GST Liquors intends to give back to the local community as a way of showing thanks.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m planning on joining the Chamber of Commerce, and I want to be a booster club supporter for the schools,\u201d said Johnson. \u201cWe want to give back to the community.<\/p>\n

Currently open from 9 a.m. until 9 p.m. on weekdays and from 8 a.m. until 11 p.m. on weekends, GST Liquors hopes, above all, to be home to positive vibes.<\/p>\n

\u201cOn our first night, we had people in here, and they stayed and visited for a while,\u201d said Smith. \u201cThat\u2019s the feeling that I want.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
