Import Tips
• Obtain TTB formula approval if blended; document exact container net content to confirm 2-4L range
• Calculate duties using proof liter formula adjusted for actual ABV at 15.56°C to prevent under/overpayment
• Avoid pitfalls like improper storage causing pressure buildup, which could misclassify as effervescent wine
