Massachusetts Distillers Petition State to Deliver During Pandemic | Eater Boston

"Owned by Andrew Cabot, this rum producer also began making and distributing ethanol for hand sanitizer, which provided a short-term revenue stream but cannot replace lost spirits sales after roughly 70 percent of revenue disappeared overnight. The owner is urging the state to allow secure direct-to-consumer in-state shipping via third-party carriers and to expand takeout/delivery rules to include cocktails and spirits, while acknowledging the need for safe age verification and proper excise-tax collection." - Terrence Doyle
