2023 Retailer of the Year Awards

Spirits & Wine Category:
Gaspar’s Liquor Shoppe

Lighting for Impact is excited to announce our “RETAILER OF THE YEAR AWARDS” recipients for 2023! Honorees were chosen based on their vision, innovation, and execution in the area of on-shelf illumination. These retailers are making a difference in their stores by enhancing the “in-store shopping experience” with targeted illumination at the point of purchase.

Gaspar’s Liquor Shoppe offers the best selection of luxury spirits in Tampa. Whiskey, Bourbon, Rum, Tequila – you name it, they have it. They also carry a carefully curated selection of fine wines, and a massive selection of craft beers as well as your favorite imports and domestic beers in our Beer Cave. Many of their products are available to taste before you buy. Their selection is so big it can be tough to make a choice. So they offer Try Before You Buy tasting at the Tasting Bar in the shop. Choose from selections throughout the store and take a taste to help narrow down your choices.

When Gaspar Ciaccio and his brother Fano opened the Temple Terrace Lounge in 1960, they ensured their business would be a success by focusing on four main elements: respect, hard work, pride, and a strong sense of family. When Gaspar passed away in 2002, his son Jimmy took over the family business and began putting his father’s lessons to work, honoring him by creating what is now Gaspar’s Patio Bar and Grille, and Gaspar’s Liquor Shoppe. As Jimmy explains: “My father wanted people to come in, forget their troubles and have a good time. That’s how I feel, too. From my family to yours, it’s an honor to serve and grow with Temple Terrace.”
