Does anyone have experience with using a TTB Experiemental Still license for producing beverage alcohol (versus fuel/industrial)?

Greetings!
I am new to the distillation business and am looking to learn more about it, particularly in the areas of fruit-brandies, flavored vodkas, and liqueuers. By day, I am an executive for a consumer products company and I am hoping my product marketing and development skills will come in handy with commercialing any beverages that I may develop. I am glad to be hear and look forward to learning much from may peers here and sharing any lessons that I may learn during my journey.

If you are selling rectified spirits to bars, you may lose out on this business. However, if you are selling directly to consumers, which is a much bigger market, this will likely help your product.
If a consumer really liked a rectified spirit, that individual would rather go to Costco or Safeway to buy a bottle of it rather than go to the bar and pay 10x the price for one drink. This could also open the markets to new tastes by exposing consumers to the rectified beverages...in fact, this may be a boon because the bar has done free marketing and some trial sales already for you.
