Hometown Liquor, Wine & Spirits makes history today 2016-12-27 - Hometown Liquor, Wine & Spirits, 110 Jamestown Street, Columbia, KY - Photo by Ed Waggener, ColumbiaMagazine.com (c). Hometown Liquor made history today, when it opened as the first package store in Adair County since the Prohibition ended in 2016. The business is owned by Michelle Matney. It will be open on seven days a week, at 10amCT through the week and at 1pmCT on Sundays. The store was issued three licenses on November 17, 2016: A Quota Retail Package License, a NQ Retail Malt Beverage Package License, and a Sampling License. Parking appears to be no problem, with spaces in the front as well as a large parking lot behind the story. On the far - north side - there is a drive through window. Thanks to Adair County ABC Deputy Administrator Shannon Sexton for the tip that the business is open. - EW Comments? | Click here to share, print, or bookmark this photo.
