I'm looking for something called Bells scotch.

I can't seem to find anyone in the States that sells this stuff.... :monkey:

Looks like Bell's was acquired by Guinness who then took over DCL to form United Distillers. Bell's is not listed as one of United's imports to the US, so you may not be able to get it in the States.

edit:
You can order it here but will have to pay tax when it comes through customs.

then why did the supreme court just have the hearing about interstate shipping of wines? and why can't i order wines direct from CA vintners? it's state by state, maybe yr state allows it.

puritanical massachu$ett$ doesn't.

yea, I dunno......

I just know that when I looked for booze online and click the "buy now" button, it asks for my credit card and it sure looks like it would work if I went through with the order. the only thing I saw was the few states it mentioned they couldn't/wouldn't ship to.

Some states only allowed wine from their own state to be shipped but no one elses. Out of state wineries sued for access and won.

Well, technically, the wineries didn't "win" per se. The SC basically told the states that it was unconstitutional on the basis of the commerce clause, and they better "fix" it.

That may mean allowing out of state wineries to ship to consumers. Or it may mean the state simply bans all shipments directly from producer to consumer.

Narlus - I feel for you, man. Luckily, Colorado has a reciprocal agreement with Cali. :thumb:
