Hard To Find Spirits

Crème de Rose (such as Crispin's made at Germain Robin's distillery. I have gone so far as to contact the distiller and am willing to pay the $85 for the 375mL). Essential for many of the drinks in William Schmidt's The Flowing Bowl.

fred, you should let me make you one.

Sea Wynde rum

Too many, but number 1 is Batavia Arrack. And it's made practically next door...

So have there been any Suze sightings yet in the States? I've read it's coming back.

I saw it (and tasted it) in New Orleans at Tales in July. If I ever get the opportunity to purchase a bottle, I certainly won't hesitate.

Braulio, the awesome amaro from the Valtellina. Their website is Italian only, they don't seem to have an email address, and the importer that comes up is their Aussie one. But I want Braulio, and their Riserva

Thanks,

Zachary

Among a number of things I am still on a quest to find and try Van Wees 15yo Roggenaer. It is at the top of my list for my trip to London next summer if I am still unable to find someone to bring me back a bottle or two before that.

I found a site that would ship it but am a bit reluctant to risk it getting broken or hung up in customs. others seem to do it here with no problem but I think I will wait and be sure.
