That being said, there are places that are Metro-accessible that it can be found at... Lemon Hart Demerara is usually available at... --the Montgomery County Liquor Store in Silver Spring which is accessible from the red line, with a short walk - if you've been to SS in the last few years it is barely 2 blocks from Borders. You'll pay a lot less in MoCo's Silver Spring store: http://www.montgomerycountymd.gov/Apps/DLC/Retail/store_locations.cfm --and also at Central Liquor on F Street in Chinatown near the Spy Museum - accessible from Gallery Place or Metro Center stops on Metro. Their price was higher than I've paid in Maryland, but the premium may be worth it for the proximity: http://www.centralliquors.com --If those fail you or are too far to travel, try calling Schneider's of Capitol Hill: http://www.cellar.com/ I dealt with a gent here awhile back who procured me a slew of various Fee's syrups and limited edition bitters with a very quick turnaround. VERY customer oriented as far as their service. I highly recommend them, although I'm not up on their pricing. If they don't carry it, they can likely order it. If you really want to try it - it can be found! Good luck! ~Rupe "Rum will be absolutely necessary to get through this night" --Hunter S.
