delaware_phoenix Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Hello all, My name is Cheryl Lins and I'm located in crumbling Walton, New York. It is here that I hope to establish a micro-distillery specializing in absinthe. I'm going to leave all the whiskies, bourbons, gins, vodkas and the like to you folks with your big equipment. I'm looking to start with a little pot still on the order of 30-35 liters. If my funding comes through I'll be able to get things really moving. Until then it's all discussion, getting the business plan (thankfully done), insurance, those bonds ready, and all of that. So far the TTB folks have been very helpful in explaining things, but perhaps if I spoke with more than one person maybe I'd get different answers. The New York State Liquor Authority however seems to want to be as opaque as possible. Anyway I'm really excited that there's a forum here. And I happen to see a few familiar faces here too. Hi Mr. Stone, Hi Marc, Hi Robert. <waves> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gwydion Stone Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Cheryl! It's good to see you here. perhaps if I spoke with more than one person maybe I'd get different answers. I know I do.It would be cool if you could make it to the TTB Expo 2008 in June. I'm going to try to make it. Maybe we can lean on them about that absinthe thing.

delaware_phoenix Posted February 22, 2008 Author Share Posted February 22, 2008 Thanks for mentioning the TTB Expo. I've been avoiding it, but I bet there's a lot of stuff to learn. I'll start looking into it, and we'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonathan Forester Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 Hi Cheryl, good to see you here. We met at the Artisan Distilling workshop last December at Cornell in Geneva. Drop me a line some time. Jonathan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delaware_phoenix Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 Yes I remember. Too bad the workshop wasn't a week long This week I'm swamped, but hopefully by the end of it things will be less hectic. cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
