VINISPIRIT

What VINISPIRIT does

Vinispirit is a specialty wine, spirits, and cigar retailer (caviste) operating as Bar@Home SRL from a single manor-based showroom at Avenue Charles-Quint 580 in Berchem-Sainte-Agathe, at the gates of Brussels, Belgium. The physical footprint is organized into five distinct experiential spaces — Espace Vin (wines including regional and lesser-known labels), Espace Spirit (whiskies, rums, vodkas, gins), Exceptions et Collections (rare cuvées and limited editions), Lounge Cigares (premium cigars), and Espace Privatif (events) — complemented by an online boutique at vinispirit.com that supports direct retail delivery within Belgium.

The product catalog spans more than 100 premium brands including Macallan (for which Vinispirit holds the official Belgian Ambassador status), Plantation and Hampden rums, Waterford and Midleton Irish whiskeys, Springbank and Glenallachie Scotch, Berta grappas, Hine cognacs, and cigar labels such as Davidoff, Horacio, Four Kicks, AVD, Ricochet, and Joya de Nicaragua. Pricing is unit-based and pay-as-you-go, with examples ranging from €26.40 for a standard Ruffino Chianti to €1,961 for a Midleton Whiskey Barry Crockett 2007 vintage expression.

Revenue is generated through three streams: direct retail (in-store and e-commerce), events and tastings (private dégustations, meeting room rentals, Club 1082 membership activities), and the cigar lounge. Ancillary services include a mobile Cocktails Bar à Domicile and event catering bundled via a partnership with Restaurant Som Tam. The company targets a horizontal consumer base of wine and spirit enthusiasts, cigar connoisseurs, collectors, and event hosts, with no disclosed B2B accounts, no headcount reported, and no funding history; ownership rests with the founding Belgian SRL entity.
