I am going to Cozumel in May. Does any one know a place with good prices for Patron Platinum or Don Julio Real

Question

I am looking to get some top shelf alc. for my home bar and was wondering where people would recommend I go in Cozumel for the best prices. My main interest is Gran Patron Platinum and Don Julio Real

Answer 1

I was just there in Feb and there is a big store downtown that has everything from booze to t-shirts we shopped the flea-market ETC. and found the best prices there better than duty free. I bought my booze there. You can't miss it it's about four blocks from denor frogs and carlos and charlies going into town. Plus they bubble wrap it for you so it is afe to travel with home. Also we haggled and then went there and low and behold we were taken by the others:) you will know the place the booze is upstairs!

Answer 2

Answer 3

Patron ? I think that's Californian...

anyway I don't think you'll find Patron in Mexico.

You can get Don Julio Real in a local store, go to Chedraui and just ask for their Licour section.

Eng- Where's the licour section ?

Spa- Donde esta la sección de licores ?

Answer 4

I looked for Patron at several different places in Mexico and after going to a Tequila museum I found out some very interesting info. It is made in Mexico under a different name and is very cheap. When it is imported to the US they give it a fancy name and put it in fancy bottles and raise the price sky high. In Mexico it is called Siete Siete ( Seven Seven in english.) I don't know about Don Julio Real.

Answer 5

You need to find somewhere away from the tourist areas if you don't want to pay double.Pay no attention to the people here who will tell you about bargaining because they think of themselves as skilled negotiators if they can talk a Mexican merchant down from triple the price(or more) to double the price for something. Ask at least two locals (away from the tourist area)where the best place to buy it is and also what price you should pay.Try a couple of different places.You have until May to learn how to ask those two simple questions in Spanish....Good luck and have a great trip!
