Beverage Warehouse in Culvery City has Kübler and St. George, as does K&L in Hollywood. Hi-Time probably also has some, but I haven’t looked.

Oh, and the BevMo in Pasadena was carrying St. George last time I was there, too.

I experienced that magic as well. It seemed like they couldn't be bothered to sell a drink that tasted like licorice unless they made it as sweet as Good 'n' Plentys. Ah yes.

It is quite the mystical substance. I must admit, however, I'm having trouble tearing myself away from absinthe suissesses. It is going to be quite sad when my bottle of absinthe is gone... finding any brand in PA is a world of hurt. I must second Erik’s lovely recommendation of the Le Demon Vert.
