Anyone got any information if they will be back?
There's a good possibility. However it may happen that we're going to sell them only as "collectors item". The hotel will NOT be amused if they see people drinking the stuff anywhere in the public areas instead of buying drinks at the hotel bar ...
Couldn't perhaps a deal be struck with the hotel?
For example, the profits of such sales are split with the hotel 50/50. In return, the hotel will agree to host such spirits for an extended period of time after EF with its regular custom with the same division of profits.
I can imagine there may be a few issues with that suggestion though. I don't imagine the hotel would really want to be flashing the labels of them bottles to their usual clientelle.
(Although if I remember correctly, other labels are available, aren't they?)
