Special Ordering Booze in Canada

[mrquincy]

I found this type of vodka in the US and I know for a fact that the LCBO does not carry it in Ontario.
Has anyone here ever ordered any spirits from outside of Canada?
I just emailed the LCBO and I think I am going to have to secure a case of this stuff....


Just drink it as it is!!!

I was just reading an article about that this morning. It was about the SAQ though. You can request anything and they'll check whether they have a deal with a distributor/importer. If not they'll buy it and sell it to you for 3 times the producer's quoted price. Mind you that's about what we pay for most booze already.

I would also like to import some vodka - the real Zubrowka they sell in Poland.

Who did you email?

I like that the first word in a booze thread is spelled wrong.



Well played, MrQ.

I like that too

That man has a little attitude about his product. "If you don't like it, don't drink it." Novel concept.

@ Matty. I just emailed the LCBO at their standard customer service email. We shall see what they say. If you see this vodka Steve, just buy it... Amazing taste and smell of potato....

@ Daft; I spell checked my post but not my title... :

There's over 3000 type of potatoes in Peru. We should make our own vodka down there.

Cool MrQ. I should ask my neighborhood LCBO guy, it seems as though every store has exclusive stuff, pretty sure they're open to special requests.

How much is it there Saulty? Are you in Ontario too? Don't tease me!

This vodka would make an excellent addition to any well stocked bar.

 

[roguejuror]

Yeah, my bad

I will go to the store and check the price for you. If you can pay shipping I will gladly ship it to you via USPS. Is it illegal to ship booze to Canada from the US?

 

[Matty]

Just a bit.

 

[betplom]

Just a bit.

Is it illegal if properly declared and import taxes are paid?

I think you can have booze mailed to you, as long as you have duty paid etc.... I don't know about gifts though.... Let's figure out how we can get booze!!!!

Saulty is in the Atlanta area.

Saulty ought to do himself a favor and go purchase and sample the Karlsson's just to confirm to me how tasty it is.

If they can stock it at a random Indian reservation gas station, surely the LCBO, the world's largest alcohol buyer can get it for me.
