Just tried to get a bottle of Whisky for a friend and could not find it anywhere, its not some obscure brand, it appears all our decent off licences are gone as i did a search in Portsmouth and surrounding areas and all that came up was Kwiki Marts etc and unfortunately the super markets didn't have the one i needed. Had to resort to Amazon !!
Used to be loads of decent offy's around.

Re: Off Licences
Are Oddbins, the wine merchants still around? Always used to get the good quality stuff that supermarkets didn't have. Maybe they would have your whiskey too.

Re: Off Licences
Supermarkets have a lot to answer for, I'm spoilt in London though, higher end and specialist off licences are a plenty.
