Hey folks -- I just visited with Ed Ledger at Ledger's Liquors in Berkeley, CA and discovered he has at least six cases of the old label 151 and a few of the 80. So if you're in the SF area, you might want to pop over and grab a case or two. Huli pau!

That's a hot tip for anyone who can get there. I just called, they were very friendly, and they cannot ship to Florida... He said to "send a friend who can pick it up for you!"

Just got several bottles of Lemon Hart 151 & another old Red Label 80 Proof LH bottle from Potomac Wine & Spirits in Georgetown (Washington DC) He can ship if its legal in your State to do so. They "stock" LH 151, but call ahead they can order more quickly if sold out on the shelf. The old red label LH 80 is another matter.
It appears to me that Maryland liquor distributors are keeping LH out of the state. Have NOT been able to find anyone that stocks LH or is willing to order it in Maryland proper. Just Barcadi 151 or Gosling 151. Thortiki

That's new label, right?
How is that doing? Anyone know? Selling okay? Accepted as the real thing?
I'm still working on the old stock...

As far as I can tell, the new label stuff is selling well in FL.

It's at least in Miami. Check with this place, http://www.sunsetcorners.com/browse.cfm/lemon-hart-rum-151-750ml/4,7922.html (copy & paste the whole URL, for some reason it gets cut off at the comma) certainly they should be able to ship from Miami to Tampa.

Jokeiii THANKS for the heads up on Lemon Hart suppliers. If you look hard enough LH can be found. Heard some say that the taste difference between the old red label & new label LH 80 proof is not noticeable. Also the readily available El Dorado 80 proof (5 yr) is just as good as LH 80 proof.
