Import Tips
• Include Certificate of Age and Origin (COO) from distiller, as gin must meet TTB standards for 'London Dry' naming
• Use bonded warehouse entry for high-duty spirits to defer payment; track proof gallons meticulously
• Avoid common pitfall of incomplete bills of lading specifying exact container capacity and spirit type
