Damn. Lillet has been a bit of a disappointment for me. I was so excited to get my hands on a bottle a few months back, and while I have enjoyed it I found it really lacked bite. Don't think I'm going to be able to get Cocchi Americano in New Zealand. Only just heard about this stuff. . . Damn.

It seems my incessant promotion of the Cocchi Americano has run both Plump Jack and the importer/distributor out of product. I feel a bit bad about this!

K&L has been out since at least middle of Feb, John Walker's website doesn't list it at all, and Plumpjack doesn't mail order, as far as I can tell. The sole importer is in Oakland, so my query is 'Where can I send someone in the East Bay to pick me up a bottle?' Obviously, they could cross the Bay if necessary, but I want this to be as easy as possible for them. Thanks. This stuff is pretty elusive.

I'm sure they'll get it back in stock at Plump Jack or could order it at K&L. Anyone find any? I'm curious what others think about it, especially its merits in a Corpse Reviver.
