As the owner of eleven establishments holding ABC licenses in the Commonwealth of VIrginia, we support the proposal 3VAC5-50 item C in regards to allowing licensed establishments to infuse distilled spirits on premise.  We believe this will be a positive for our industry in the Commonwealth.  Guests will no longer need to cross statelines for these in house diffused spirits.  Adequate care has been taken in the proposal to ensure safety of the community by requiring that all food safety measures will be followed.
