Import Tips
• Ensure variety-specific documentation if questioned, as 'tart cherry' includes Montmorency/Balaton per trade norms
• Comply with FSMA by providing supplier grower affidavits for organic integrity
• Watch for misclassification as cherry syrup if viscosity misinterpreted; specify 'juice concentrate' clearly
