Default Where to buy Chambord in Brisbane?

I went to four different bottle shops the other night and none of them stock Chambord. Most of them had never even heard of it. Does anyone know a place that sells it? Bars seem to have it but bottle shops don't for some reason and i'm sick of paying 6.50 a glass hehe.

For those that don't know, it's a wildberry liquer you usually have with lime and lemonade, or champagne.

If you can't find Chambord anywhere, you might like to try Cassis (blackcurrant liquer).

Haha, fair call.
Just thought it was funny being a reasonable liquor :P

I see far more bogan things than that every week, the worst (well imho) is when people want cordial in beer

Hmm I've never had a problem finding it ... I normally buy booze at the Liquor superstore at Lutwyche. Probably bought maybe 5 bottles in my life, from different places.

go to a bottleshop that stocks other things apart from XXXX.

on the chambord topic, alot of younger guys drink chambord + redbull. how does this go? at ~$9 for a half strength drink it would want to be worth it!

That looks like The holy handgrenade of Antioch






NB: I saw that at our local Liquorland at the Glen, Glen waverley - so they can't be THAT hard to find....
