Virginia ABC removing Soviet Spirits from their shelves.

From Curt Autry on Facebook...

FROM VIRGINIA ABC …

In the spirit of Gov. Youngkin’s call for decisive action in support of Ukraine, Virginia ABC is removing Russian-sourced vodka brands from our store shelves. We have immediately identified seven Russian-sourced vodka brands in our inventory:
o Beluga
o Hammer & Sickle
o Imperia
o Mamont
o Organika
o Russian Standard
o ZYR

We carry other spirits that have Russian-themed monikers and marketing such as Stolichnaya and Smirnoff, but these products are not produced in Russia and will not be removed from our shelves.
