BoozeFilter: Google-Fu failing me. Where can I purchase a bottle of Hendrick's Gin online and have it shipped to Washington state?

Somebody needs to get drunk, fast. Where can I purchase a bottle of Hendrick's Gin online and have it shipped to Washington state?

This is not an answer to your question, but I would like to state for the record that Hendrick's Gin is the most delicious thing in the world.

Seconded and looking forward to the answer. It was a hit gift this holiday season. I'd love to be able to do similar things throughout the year.

Froogle returns options. I'm about to run out for the day, otherwise I'd take a look to see about delivery options. Good luck.

Try the Green Grape. And thanks for the recommendation to try this intriguing gin.

I see you're in Washington State, so why don't you just go to a state liquor store and buy it?

A 750 ml bottle is brand code 028626 and will set you back $25.83.

I know they have it at the store on 4th Ave in Seattle (#101) because I just called to ask them.

You can find it at 140 out of the 157 state-run liquor stores in the state and 26 of the contract stores.

Can I join the chorus and say wow, Hendrick's is delicious?

Internet Wines and Spirits will ship to you I think, although they charge a lot for it.

I don't know if there are any rules about shipping it to Washington State, but Binny's carries Hendricks. I've bought stuff from them a few times with no problems (shipping to TX).

I'll third the recommendation for Hendricks -- very subtle flavor in comparison to brands like Tanquery or Sapphire...

It's hard to ship alcohol as many states either outlaw out-of-state shipments or have bizzare policies that make it nearly impossible. For example, The Green Grape above does not ship to Washington State. It seems like the poster is interested in shipping something there and not necessarily buying something there, so I would recommend finding a Washington liquor store with an online store that does instate shipment.

I don't know if you guys know, but Hendricks use cucumber in the distillation. So if you use cucumber instead of fruit in your gin and tonic, it will knock your socks off. It's amazing.

Wait till my frat bro's see me pimping my cucumber G&T.

According to this Seattle PI article from 2004, it's illegal to sell hard liquor over the internet [includes a state-by-state map]. I doubt they've relaxed that. Call around to some liquor stores and if they don't have it, they might be willing to order it for you.

hendricks is the shizzle. good with tonics or cucmber martinis, with muddled cukes and a lil' chili pepper flake..

Nth-ing the "fresh cucumber as a garnish in a Hendrick's and tonic" recommendation. That is some delicious stuff.
