Lehrman Beverage Law and SB Nation have articles on a new powdered alcohol product.
First and for a long time, it was just liquid. Then it was whipped, solidified and almost vaporized. And now alcohol is powderized.
I am not astonished that this is a real product — but I am absolutely astonished that this is approved. Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau (TTB) approved seven versions of this powdered alcohol within the past few days. The person that pushed this through must be very patient or lucky and/or good. The product seems highly likely to raise a large number of legal issues and controversies.
The website for the product appears to have been taken down due to the media response surrounding their marketing.
We were caught off guard with the release of some of our labels by the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau. As a result, people visited this website that we thought was under the radar because we had not made a formal announcement of Palcohol.

its typically trustees that smuggle drugs into jails. guards do a good part of the smuggling for prisons, but there's also some damn crafty ways to send powders in the mail. this is definitely going to get smuggled in though, probably even more than weed, "spice", and pills since it'll be easier to get and harder to detect.
