Wine Gallery, Brookline & Boston, MA
Whereas most every other kosher product is readily available here, it has become clear to me that liqueurs are in fact hard to come by in metropolitan Boston. Thankfully, a quick e-mail to the Wine Gallery (at the corner of Cypress and Boylston Streets) requesting kosher coffee liqueur brought it to their shelves within a week — in plenty of time for my upcoming “Big Lebowski” party. The Carmel Azmara Coffee Liqueur was $13.99, a few dollars more expensive that what Kosher.com charges — but with shipping and handling, it’s actually more expensive online.
Their everyday selection of kosher spirits is nothing to sneeze at, but if something’s absent, just speak up — they seem enthusiastic to fulfill special requests.

Jabbett,
I’ve been pretty impressed with the selection of kosher liquor at Gimbel’s Liquors, right in Washington Square. The prices are about average for kosher wine, but they have a good selection, at least compared to some of the other liquor stores (say, the Wine Press at St. Mary’s).
