KMHerring 3, Thanks for the response. That is exactly what I was looking for. I will shoot you an email.

Some states have franchise laws that govern agreements between wholesalers and suppliers. That means that alcoholic beverages suppliers who want to sell their products in the state must establish either exclusive or non-exclusive franchise relationships with in-state distributors. You could possibly be stuck in a contract with a distributor which isnt living up to his side of the deal for a while. I am not a lawyer. However, these laws concern me when considering distributing in states with such laws.

I am curious how many and which states are considered franchise states. I know TN an GA are. Thanks, Charlie

Thanks. I will contact the state and see what I need to do. I just have a hard time paying again for the bottle. I dont mind paying the taxes. Thanks, Alex

I have been contacted by multiple charity organizations lately wanting donations of spirits for events, auctions, etc. I am in North Carolina which is a control state. I would love to help these organizations but I am not sure if it is financially feasible. I know this is more of a question for my state ABC but can I just donate the spirit and pay the Fed taxes or do I need to repurchase my gin from a state ABC store? Since im not saleing it I would think I could donate it. Thanks, Alex Mauney

Those of you using reverse osmosis filtering system's as I am. At what TDS do you typically change your RO filters? I asked the company I bought it from and they told me it depends on the individual. For our given application what would be the TDS reading to look for to change the filter? I really appreciate it. Thanks, Alex Mauney

Thanks guys. Looks like I will be needing a glass one also.

Flex tank USA. I am curious if anyone has any experience with this company? Is there other companys simular to this? I also notice the sell aging tanks. How do you think this would be aging spirits in a HDPE tank? Let me know what you think. Thanks, Charlie
