I discovered their new location during Christmas time 2011. As always, during the holiday season, I spend a great deal of time browsing through the local liquor stores. Not because I'm an alcoholic, well, not -just- because I'm an alcoholic; many of the gifts I buy and give are alcoholic in nature. The store is large and well laid out, I had no difficulty finding the various sections, and the organization seemed intuitive. The owner was friendly, and talked me through some of the more esoteric liqueurs. The fact that I was unfamiliar with a number of his products surprised and delighted me. I am a fan of new and novel tastes, and it's not too often that I run into something I haven't seen before within the confines of the Valley.
The one product that I was looking for that he did not carry was Strega. Hopefully this is remedied sometime soon. I can't recall if Galliano was on the shelf either. It's just a personal preference, but I like to see a nice selection of Italian liqueurs when I browse.
The prices were reasonable, essentially on par with the rest of the city. It's on the east side of Abbotsford, so if you're at that end of town, or just passing through on the nearby freeway, this should be your go-to liquor store. read more
