East Coast Beverage launched several new brands, now available in Rhode Island. In beer, from Baja Brewing Company, founded in 2006 and the first brewery in the state of Baja California Sur, Mexico, new imports include Escorpian Black Ale. Cabotella Blond Ale, Por Favor IPA and La Surfa Baja Lager. New spirits, first, from France comes Mont Blanc Vodka, produced in Cognac using only the finest wheat and pure, limestone-filtered water, distilled six times for a complex and delicate spirit with a delightful, velvety finish; and from India, Rampur Asava Indian Single Malt Whisky, a rich marriage of American Bourbon barrels and Indian Cabernet Sauvignon casks. New wine market entry, Stel+Mar, offers three crowd-pleasing and award-winning California wines at approachable prices, in a California Cabernet Sauvignon North Coast, Chardonnay and Rosé.
