Where can I buy Shaoxing rice wine in St. Louis, MO

After numerous searches, I finally found some online...in New Jersey.

St. Louis is about an hour and a half drive for me, and I'd like to just walk in a market and buy a bottle. I DON'T want cooking wine.

Thanks

Marsha

    I would bet on the places on Olive. I was looking for an obscure vinegar last time I was in the Olive Farmers Market and they have shelves of vinegar but unless you speak the language, I would bring a picture.
    In addition to the places hill food said, Lukas liquor may have it.

      if you can't find it between Jay Asia (South Grand), Global Foods (N. Kirkwood Road), Seafood City (Olive between Hanley and I-170) and across the street the Olive Street Farmer's Market (not really a farmer's market) then I give up all faith in our grand experiment known as the melting pot. the last 2 have a specific liquor section.

      another possibility would be call the liquor store Starrs on Big Bend just South of Clayton Road or what is that place on Jefferson near I-44, Randall's?

      where are you coming from? I'm spending a lot of time in the Rolla area these days and would like to hear where I might find a VN/Thai fish sauce nearby out here.
