Does anyone know where I can find some Southern Comfort in Moscow? It's certainly not sold in any supermarkets or alcohol shops near me.

I'm assuming that if it is sold somewhere it's horrendously over priced.

Has anyone seen it around? I've never even seen it sold in bars. Even those frequented by expats and with large liquor selections.

My wife got me a 1 liter bottle at Sheremetyevo for less than 20 euros (it was on sale) last month.

I think it is in Selgros. Could be wrong about that though. Never touch the stuff myself, hic!

Yeah, personally I'm happy with some good old Russian standard. But my gf was interested in trying some and I don't mind it myself, so I thought I'd try and get my hands on some.

Sheremetyevo is a bit of a journey, plus I wouldn't be able to get into duty free without flying somewhere.

I might check out Selgros, although the one I found on google maps looked like a pain to get to without a car.

As far as Ikea, usually.

It's also a Cash & Carry affair, so you need a membership card thingie. The friendly security guard won't let you in without your card beeping on the scanner first : )

There's always a minibus to places like that. Usually with the shop name plastered all over the windscreen.
