Where can i buy Gin?

Has anyone bought Gin whilst out in FL? I was going to buy some in the airport at Gatwick to take but with 8 adults it wont last long.
I'm assuming the liquor stores attached to Walmart will sell it but do they have the same variety & flavours like here in the UK?

Thanks

Eve

I don’t know about Walmart but I like ABC Liquors which has the largest array of alcoholic drinks I’ve ever seen. When the exchange rate was much better, I used to get one of those speciality flavoured vodkas for my nephew -£26 in there, £59 at home.

Tons of choice in Walmart. The one at Clermont has a separate building for the spirits. Not been in yet but Supertarget on 192 at Rolling Oaks now has a liquor section as well. Tonic can be quite dear depending on what brand you like.

Thanks for the info. Luckily i don't like tonic, i drink it with lemonade!
Never been in a liquor store before because a duty free bottle has always been enough for 2, not this time though so needs must

It may be different in Orlando, because at times it seems like little Britain , they may important diff options to appeal to visitors but in my neck of the woods flavoured gin is extremely rare, compared to England the options are dismal.

If you like vodka at all the opposite is true many more options here compared to England.

We normally go to the Walmart on Turkey Lake Road and have not seen the liquor store there. Am I missing it or do they not have one?
