    Contains Sulfites Labeling for a Rum

    in Packaging

    Posted

    Thank you for your reply. I was a little confused by the wording in the Beverage Alcohol Manual. I have since got it cleared up. Here is an excerpt from the BAM on p.11.

    11. SULFITE DECLARATION
    REQUIRED
    “CONTAINS SULFITES” or “CONTAINS (A) SULFITING AGENT(S)” or
    identification of the specific sulfiting agent(s) is required on distilled spirits
    containing 10 or more parts per million (ppm) sulfur dioxide
    TYPE SIZE
    Minimum 2 mm for containers larger than 200 ml
    Minimum 1 mm for containers of 200 ml or less
    LEGIBILITY
    Must generally appear parallel to the base of the container
    Must be readily legible
    Must appear on a contrasting background
    Must appear separate and apart or substantially more conspicuous than any
    other descriptive or explanatory information
    PLACEMENT
    May appear on the FRONT, BACK or SIDE
    of the container
    It is funny how complicated these things seem until you get through a few.

    Contains Sulfites Labeling for a Rum

    Hi,

    I am working through my first COLA submission and I am a bit confused on the disclosure section of the label. Do I need to put "contains sulfites" on the label. We are not importing and havent been required to do lab analysis. I don't see it on any of the rum labels so I was wondering if it was a requirement?

    Thanks,

    Joe-
