Hmmmm... Why sell Russian vodka - when you can sell
which-ever brand you get a kickback from pushing?

Surely seem like simple math-mattics to me.
Good for them.

I feel bad for Stoli. It's not even made in Russia and they're getting crushed by folks who don't know that

This is bullshit, as the sole provider of hard spirits in the Commonwealth, its their job to provide what every customer wants, in fact, its a legal obligation.

I don't even drink Vodka, nor, do I support what the Russians are doing, not in the least, but the point is, if its out there, and I want it, its their job to provide it.

This is just like their ban on Grain alcohol, so college kids couldn't get too drunk, of course, their were 151 rums still available, and, you can just buy 2 bottles of 100 proof vodka.

Politics shouldn't be part of a state run system, I mean, if Kentucky elected a Republican Governor, and Wolf didn't like it, could he stop selling any Bourbon from Kentucky?

You haven't been paying a lot of attention to the liquor market I take it. I can't find 60% of what I want locally. Some of that's from a shitty system, some from a massive upswing in demand in certain categories, and some from constricted supply. Silver lining is, when you do find what you want to drink here it's at MSRP.

As for the 2 banned vodkas... fuck 'em. There's better options

This is picking up legs and I wager that Tito's, like it or not will be seeing an upswing in sales. There are even folks paying for the honor of pouring out a bottle so that the bars don't lose money or to donate the money to Ukraine relief funds

There's the odd rumour that Stoli (like Foster's)
is REALLY made in New York City. ...

Drink responcibly - something else.
