headstand Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 KL Wines carries a few but not the 18y and they are pretty pricey The 1994 runs $114 CDN - which is the top end of my scotch budget. Yes there are others that run in the $200s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sengjc Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 I thought this was the case in VIC as well but about a year ago they started selling booze in supermarkets (Coles). Also the Docklands Costco did have their alcohol fenced off, but it is now open... I think this is still the case in VIC, the booze section is usually an add on to the supermarket: Liquorland for Coles, BWS (gradually replacing Woolworth Liquor) for Woolworth and IGA Liquor for IGA etc. Even Costco has a segregated alcohol section that is open but has a security guard stationed at that area to prevent access by unaccompanied underaged and minors.

Fuzz Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 As far as I'm aware, only in the ACT is it legal to purchase alcohol within a supermarket. Haven't been keeping up with the laws as I no longer work in our Liquor division. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tan1801 Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Oh really. The coles closest to me has their booze section in between the breads and fresh food without any addition security guards hehe. I also know of two other coles which are similar. It's handy because their open much later than a liquorland. I do remember a security guard at costco a while back, but haven't seen anyone staffed in the liquore section in the last 6 months or so.

Fuzz Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Liquor laws differ from state to state. It's been a good 3 years since I paid any attention. Just had a quick look, only VIC and ACT can sell booze on supermarket shelves, and QLD is considering it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotusguy Posted February 12, 2013 Share Posted February 12, 2013 Look what just walked in the door from Duty Free! Not a tequila drinker (yet) but after the FOH weekend ahead who knows?? I've really tried hard to enjoy Tequila as a sipping drink but finally realized I just can't stand it other than as a shot. Yes, I've tried expensive Tequila as well. Just isn't my thing. Better luck to you, Lisa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lotusguy Posted February 22, 2013 Share Posted February 22, 2013 Very nice. Please let us know about the pc10. Will do! It's their first regular release and priced fairly compared to the previous releases. Funny, the guy at KL Wines that sold it to me still had peat breath from just tasting it with his colleagues. They all liked it and compared it with an Ardbeg 10 that had gone to finishing school Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattW Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 Had a bottle of Havana Club Selección de Maestros delivered today as a late 21st birthday present. Looking forward to seeing how it compares to it's cheaper siblings given the premium price! Also got a free havana club glass which is nice.
