    I used to drive through the Laird's orchards and distillery (circa 1780) when I went the back way to Monmouth County College.

    They make Apple Jack and Jersey Lightning.

    For those unfamiliar, the northeast region or anthracite coal region has a beverage called Boilo... The number one choice or ingredient is Four Queens Whiskey. Boilo is one of the go to drinks to warm you up in winter, cure colds and fevers, or do about anything else. One of my coolest memories growing up was when my friends dad shared their family recipe for Boilo with me. I still make it every fall. But the reason for this post was an article about Four Queens Whiskey that was done this year. I put an excerpt in here. They estimated that 80% of the product is sold in NE PA.

    "It’s a product that’s survived over the years uniquely because of boilo,” says Tom Alberico of Laird & Company, the venerable New Jersey distillery that owns the brand. He doesn’t know exactly when or how Four Queens became the go-to, but speculates it caught on thanks to a low price point ($10/750ml) coupled with the high proof (101) required to stand up to the boilo-brewing process. Schuylkill County buys so much Four Queens—more than $65,000 worth between late 2016 and now, according to the PLCB—that Alberico says they alone are responsible for the product’s continued existence.

    Alberico, who is Laird’s VP of Sales and Marketing, has attempted a number of times over the years to bring boilo, and its association with Four Queens, to a broader audience, with middling results. “I don’t think there’s any place outside of coal country that knows anything about it,” he says. “We did a little bit of work to see if we couldn’t sort of bring it along, but we haven’t had any success.”
    I always thought of Boilo as a Skook thing (Schuylkill County) not a whole anthracite region thing.

    You are going to have a hard time finding non-steel at that price. The 200 round boxes for $33 at walmart will be federal aluminum.

    Is that a real thing? A co-worker always told me to go home and drink some liquor if I was feeling sick. I always assumed that it was one of many excuses he made for drinking.
