AdirondackVodka

Hello: Looking for recommendations for distributors in California. Anyone have good/bad experiences. Anyone have specific experience with Dalet WIne and Spirits in Northern California? Post responses or message me if you'd prefer. Thanks Steve

Looking for feedback from those in self distribution states (particularly New York) on whether you charge a delivery fee to bars / liquor stores and if so, how much. Steve

Chuck: While we do not have this approval yet, I'm assured by a DC attorney whose practice largely centers around the TTB that you can circumvent this restriction through the regulations allowing for Alternating Premises - essentially the same structure can be the distillery then can cease to be the distillery when it is functioning as the Winery, etc...See 27 CFR 25.81 Steve

Denver, New York is now allowing co-location of farm wineries, farm breweries and farm distilleries. Did you use the alternating premises route with TTB? I'd be interested in details. Steve

Congrats, Classmate! Glad to hear you made it through. Our first batch will be bottled by the end of the month. All is well here. Steve

Hope this is on-topic enough...for liquor store sales, who uses a scalable wholesale price (discounted down for volume purchases) and if so how much? e.g. wholesale minus .50 for up to two cases, minus .80 for three to six? Anyone try anything in this neighborhood? Steve

We too are looking for mini bottler. Please share or send to info@adirondackdistilling.com

BUMP We are interested in doing minis as well. Anyone do small bottles? Steve

Follow up: Ralph...we have arranged Assembly sponsorship for the bill. Steve

Ralph: Thanks for the update. We got our DSP today and state license should follow shortly. I'll talk to our local assemblyman. I'm pretty confident he will carry it in the assembly. Also spoke to Joe Griffo about it. Dennis is a good fit for the Liquor Authority. He's a very bright and ethical guy. I worked for him at the Attorney General's office during law school. Let me know if I can help. Steve Cox

I believe MSU has an experimental license...because obviously they don't retail anything.

Thanks all...timely topic to me. I have a further finishing question for vodka though. We plan to filter with either charcoal or another substance (we live next to the Herkimer "diamond" mine so we may go local). My question is: we blend to proof, chill to filter, then do you folks warm to a certain temperature before bottling? and if so how; open air tank, warmer? Thanks.

Hello all: For those who have imported their stills from overseas (Germany)...did you obtain an import bond for the duties? Is it required or recommended and do you recommend any brokers? Thanks Steve
