As long as you are flying Garuda I reckon you should buy in Bali. Prices are really a lot cheaper. For example scotch is normally around US$14 (Cheaper with the buy two promotions) although you can't buy good old Bundy.
And before I get flamed for trying to save a few dollars - remember this is Bali and how hard would you try bargain to save Rp40/50,000 on a purchase with a stall or market holder simply to pay without any worry an extra AUD$5/6.00 per bottle to a Multinational duty free shop. Multiply that by your 4 bottles and there's your the majority of your Indonesian departure tax.
