Some of you might know I make my own liqueur

[sachem allison]

Hey guys

Some of you older kkf guys know i make my own Chili pepper liqueur. Quite a few of you have partaken of it at various ECG's. Well on a rather expensive whim I entered both of my liqueurs in The New York World Wine and Spirits Competition last month. Who knew, I won a gold and a silver medal. Gold medal for Mandarin Heat and silver medal for NativeHeat. The only reason we got the silver was because I entered both bottles in the same category. For all the support I have received from you guys I say Thank you.:thumbsup:

Both types have become very popular at our house. Good luck with the continued work to increase distribution.

:dazed::bashhead::dontknow::spin chair::IMOK::slaphead::surrendar::juggle::funfunfunfun::excuseme::beatinghead::helpsos::nutskick:Right now, I only have one liqour store selling my stuff. Upper westside. Beacon liqour. My partner and I when we gave time go door to door and sell it that way. Working chef hours prevents me from moving much of it. Need to hire someone to sell it for us but, have no money to pay them.lol. catch 22 situation. Need to make another batch but, can't until I sell this one but can't sell this one because I work too much and don't make enough to go out and sell it. Started a gofondme . That might help.lol
If anyone wants discuss the merits of these things pm me.
