Does any New England Rum still exist ?.

Reading up in my: 'Rum- Yesterday and today' recently, the book

was published in 1983, I discovered the following.(pages 163-164)

Quote- "In 1982 Heubleim sold Felton & son, the company and

CONSIDERABLE STOCK OF NEW ENGLAND RUM- Jan 1983 the

Boston distillery was still in mothballs pending a decision on its future"

Does anybody know what happened to that CONSIDERABLE STOCK ?

or does anybody know a contact in the boston area with knowledge

of HEUBLEIM or FELTON & SON and or where in Boston this distillery was located.
