Does anyone know where to find Crown Royal on the island? We were there in January and could not find it anywhere on the Dutch side; we did not look for it on the French side. We will be back in a week and are hoping we can find it.

Did you look on Front Street? I can't imagine they don't have it at one of the liquor stores downtown. Really surprised they didn't have it at Carrefour either. The one by Mark's seems to have the most liquor.

I saw it everywhere last May both on Front Street along with the major grocery stores Carrefour and Market Garden.

A friend just Whatsapp'd me and said that Carrefors, Porto Cupecoy has it. It was strange in January, we went to Gulmohar's in Philipsburg and they did not have it . It was a supply issue, I guess.
Thank you all for your replies.

OK. I would imagine that the Carrefour by Mark's would have it also. If Gulmohar's didn't have it, it really must not have been available on island. Recently picked up an affinity for it myself, so probably will be picking up a bottle in June.

Gulmohar's usually carries and specializes in hard to find mostly top shelf liquor. I don't consider Crown Royal as a premium liquor but a common one available most everywhere.

Scuba--I really don't know much about premium liquors. I just thought if anyone on island would have it, they would. It does seem really a popular liquor, available most everywehre around here.

Yes. A nice smooth blend. Our local Wal-Mart carries it to.

Post Covid there are glass shortages globally. resulting in some products being sold on an allocation in many markets

We too have found it on many visits....we stayed at Sol y Mar, which is a villa above the Greenhouse, and just a two minute walk away there is a grocery store not far from Toppers...cant remember name.....anyways, we personally have always been on the search for "Gibsons" rye - hubby very picky,,,,and zero luck on the island....guess we will have to buy it at duty free at airport before we leave canada.
