For the last three weeks, I've hit up every liquor store, supermarket, health food store, etc.... and NO ONE knows what I'm talking about. One older lady at a liquor store told me it hasn't been made since the 1930s, and the best one was from the young girl behind the counter of another liquor store that just giggled and said, "Wow, that must be brand new stuff, I've never heard of it before". ARRRGGGGGG!! Anyone got any helpful hints on where to look? I've contacted Fee Bros and the closest distributor to me is like 70 miles away. (I'm ready to take the trip!!) Someone suggested a coffee shop that specializes in gourmet flavors? Any thoughts on this?? Thanks PS: I live in N.E.Connecticut if anyone has a source around here.
