I was at this place recently . Got off the subway at the library and wandered around until I found it. It was the most peculiar store. I am an American and was a little self concious about speaking English in France so my perspective could be my own problem. The store has bottles all along the walls on shelves that are accessable to the shopper . Some of the shelves are high, higher than you can reach. Also they had tables in the middle of the store that I really didn't know what purpose they served. I picked out a bottle of Caol Isla and handed it to the Lady salesperson and she gave me an odd look. She took the bottle and replaced it on the shelf that I got it from and retrieved another of the same from under some shelf . I paid in cash and left very happy with my purchase but I feel like I made a faux pax. Did I?
