States Allow A Taste At Liquor Stores

Beginning in July, Virginia will let customers sample products before buying at about 330 liquor stores in the state. With about 5,000 brands of liquor available, suppliers of some top-selling brands are just giddy over the law. New Jersey, Vermont and Maine also eased their tasting laws in the last year, and a total of 43 states have changed liquor laws to allow liquor sampling at stores.
