GOLDEN’S GOT IT: A DOWNTOWN DISTILLERY TASTING R GOLDEN’S GOT IT: A DOWNTOWN DISTILLERY TASTING ROOM  Golden Moon Speakeasy has been operating in Golden for more than six years. Their five most popular cocktails of the last month are their Old Fashioned, the Golden Mamba, the Cloud City, the Quarantine Cooler, and the Radio Maxwell. Many customers don’t realize that @goldenmoonspeakeasy isn’t technically a “bar," rather it’s a distillery tasting room.  Every drop of alcohol they use to make their cocktails is produced at Golden Moon Distillery. They’re currently open for indoor service and want customers to know that they are exceeding both the CDC and Colorado-recommended safety procedures, but if you aren’t ready to imbibe inside, they have cocktails to-go.  #GoodToBeGoldenCO #GoldensGotIt
GOLDEN’S GOT IT: OLD-FASHIONED CANDY & MODERN-DA GOLDEN’S GOT IT: OLD-FASHIONED CANDY & MODERN-DAY FUN Golden Goods is a locally owned and operated shop in downtown Golden that has been in town since 2013. Their most popular items are their old-fashioned candy, but they also carry everything from aspirin to sunscreen. Big news: @goldengoodsinc is remodeling next door and hopes to open another 1,000 sq ft store in September! #GoodToBeGoldenCO #GoldensGotIt
GOLDEN’S GOT IT: DIY & CUSTOM CANDLES Mountain L GOLDEN’S GOT IT: DIY & CUSTOM CANDLES Mountain Lux Candles is a family-run candle shop that has been in Golden for three years. They were the first to operate their unique candle class model in Colorado and it's the only shop like it in the Denver area. Some of their most popular scents are Morning Dew, Lavender, Dad’s Den (cherry pipe tobacco), Lilac, Eucalyptus, Yuzu, and Mug & Brush. They have more than 80 different scents, but you can also custom scent a candle in their shop. Choose scents you like and @mountainluxcandles will help you find 2-3 that will blend together nicely for a wonderful personalized candle. Unfortunately, they can’t offer the in-store experience with the current City and State mask mandate, so they are closed to the public, but you can still order online at mountainluxcandles.com. (They’ll even custom blend a candle that can be ordered from their website!) #GoodToBeGoldenCO #GoldensGotIt
GOLDEN’S GOT IT: Sustainably Handcrafted Body Ca GOLDEN’S GOT IT: Sustainably Handcrafted Body Care Products  Spinster Sisters has been in Golden since May 2014. They got their start in soap, which is still their #1 selling product. They offer about 20 base scents and cycle in 4-5 more seasonal scents each year. Body Butter and Lip Balm are also big sellers, as is their award-winning sore muscle rub – Muscle Stuff, which is offered in CBD and non-CBD versions. @spinstersistersco products are all natural and are hand-crafted right here in Golden at their Microsoapery in Corporate Circle (in better times they offer tours). They have a huge sustainability mission, use renewable energy in their manufacturing facility, and their packaging is biodegradable (they use plant-based inks), recycled (when possible), and recyclable. They use simple, easily recognizable ingredients and have a wide variety of products, including deodorant, hand sanitizer, candles, and room sprays. Find Spinster Sisters inside of Baby Doe’s Clothing.   #GoodToBeGoldenCO #GoldensGotIt

They have jewelry from Colorado artists as well as artists from throughout the United States. They sell a lot of accessories -- purses and bags are very popular, particularly Maruca bags (made in Boulder) and slingbags, fannypacks, and totes from Kavu. Hats are popular items as well, with Wallaroo sunhats selling like hotcakes, in the summer and handmade hats from local artists and artisans in Peru. They carry a great selection of dresses for pretty much any body type and any occasion, ranging from casual every day to vintage styles and unique styles for special occasions. In addition to artisan made jewelry and accessories, they also have a great selection of fine art greeting cards and notecards from local artists and original pieces for your home, including paintings, mixed media wall hangings, clocks, and birdhouses. The styles they carry reflect the variety of their customers, including women ranging in age from college student to great grandma. #GoodToBeGoldenCO #GoldensGotIt
