Lucky we still have some left. Can I make a suggestion though if you like HoneyBee how about trying Metaxa greek brandy we stock up in the Summer when we are in Greece and then get the Honey Bee in Winter. Sometimes run out of both and Metaxa can be get in the UK nice sweet taste as well! :glynis

Never seen any local spirits in duty free, looks like you will have to buy in Candolim and pack well in suitcase :!:

Definitely no Honeybee at Diabolical airport, I had a look for it last week. As someone else says no local spirits available in the airport, just the normal brand names.

When i was in Goa April just gone i only managed to find about 5 plastic bottles. i asked around and they said they'd stopped producing plastic bottles, so we needed to buy the glass bottles.
If anyones been this season and have seen any spritits in plastic bottles could they let me know

Thanks

We save some of our empty water bottles when on holiday. Then we pour any spirits we have bought into the plastic, label them up and keep them in the garage when we get home. We then top up the glass bottle we have at home when it becomes empty - doesn't happen very often at all :rofl

This is not only to prevent breakages on the way back but plastic weighs less than glass so we don't have the worry about the excess baggage on the way back.

That's our excuse anyway. :glynis
