Hello everyone,
I will be making a return trip to LRD at the end of the month, and will be staying in Puerto Plata aka POP. During my past trips, I have always bought drinks/alcohol at the different discotecas,resturants, colmados, etc, but it became quite expensive. I am looking to switch things up a bit this time around. I was wondering for those with experience, what would you say is the best option for me. Basically I am looking for the most cost effective/ cheapest option.
1. Buy all my alcohol here in the U.S. and wrap it very well in my checked baggage ( I believe I read your allowed to import 200 Liters into the DR).
* I planned on bringing 3 or 4 liters of Vodka (most likely Grey Goose).
2. Buy my alcohol at the Duty free shop in Miami
3. Buy my alcohol from a market in POP or a neighboring place like Costambar or Sosua.
* I have heard conflicting stories that in the DR popular imported spirit brands are very expensive (moreso than in the United States) is this true?
Your help/advice is greatly appreciated.
