  1. Howdy! A ano prosim! A slivovice would be good. CFry
  2. Reminds me of a certain claim over dribbled wax. Amusing...stick to the horns. CFry
  3. And this sign would be great adjacent to it..."Beware pickpockets and loose women," tak nevim. CFry
  4. Denaturing may be of some importance to make the product worthwhile. CFry
  5. In South Dakota, one can operate both. CFry
  6. It seems like an instrument of control and, of course, a means of increasing profit. The high cost of tasting will dissuade one from trying different products. That will shift one's reliance on one's palate to outside sources, such as the sales push from the middle man. And everyone knows artisan distillers are paying billions to middle men to push their product and provide kick backs for sales. As a side note, I am jealous you are so close to Walla Walla. I still have some bottles stored from a handful of years back. Just a handful of years more until I am on Leonetti's list. CFry
  7. I think that is an interesting location for an alcohol supply store. The potential lies in the ease of access. Depending upon the set prices, people will likely pick up alcohol at the airport, thereby avoiding going to a liquor store later for relatively reasonable alcohol for the rooms, etc. So it really depends on the intersection of the price at which it is supplied (taking into account the ease of access) and the amount of demand from party goers, gift givers, meeting with friends people, etc. It is, nevertheless, a good idea for Vegas. Unfortunately, we will, based on our current trend, never have the same fortunes as, for example, airport travelers in the Schengen area. There is not much like grabbing a liter or two of Pilsner Urquell and prolonging one's time in one's secondary home. CFry
  8. "Spirits of the (North) Woods" is too cheeky, maybe? CFry
  9. With that, I believe you have summed up artisan distiller's endeavours. CFry
  10. Use your great water through fermentation, however, I suggest you use RO afterwards for dilutions. CFry
  11. May I suggest Ukraine for you. I know you have the potential to make some good spirits there (I have tasted some excellent brandy). You can avoid many regulations if you have good connections and plenty of money. The connections part would, however, be notably difficult, especially if you do not know Ukrainian or Russian. CFry
  12. Has anyone joined or thought about joining the association? Their cause seems supportable, however, its makeup of only relatively major players draws some caution. http://www.discus.org/ CFry
  13. Talk about a turn key operation! CFry
  14. Our whiskey/brandy based still has an agitator. If you do not plan on filtering out the material which has supplied the yeast with food, an agitator will help prevent base materials from cooking onto the still. CFry
