elcaro Posted November 26, 2019 Share Posted November 26, 2019 It started to be harder to get. Now the big C has stopped selling it, many small shops stopped selling it and my local upped the price from like 260 to 340? This is in ChiangRai. I cannot find any information on the distillery! Is my favourite spirit disappearing from this planet? Should I stockpile the last bottles that I find? How is the regency stockpile looking where you live?

IAMHERE Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Getting harder to come by here in Pattaya area since early summer. Usually convenience store (all 8 in walking distance) is out of stock for a couple weeks at a time, when they do get it some people buy 6 bottles at a time so they are soon out of stock again. The price at 7/11 is 243 up from 240; liquor store is up from 280 to 320 a bottle (pint), they do have some ordinarily. I hardly drink it but the GF does; I think mostly so she gets face from not drinking Som Sang. But she enjoys Som Sang a couple days after the Regency is gone.

GreasyFingers Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Will keep track of this thread. There is still plenty up here in the mum & pop shops, have not checked at 7/11. An alternative is Meridian, a bit cheaper but still drinkable. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orton Rd Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Try the Chinese ones, Golf club or Rotell XO both in Big C. Regency is over priced and not that great IOM, Cavalier is better and a lot cheaper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ricklev Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 Yes, pretty weird. For the last year or so my close by 7-11 only occasionally has it in stock and then only a few bottles that sell out quickly. I am curious to know why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Peter Denis Posted November 28, 2019 Share Posted November 28, 2019 On the other hand, judging from the amount of ads they post on the TV Forum, Regency for Expats is not hard to come by. ???? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
