Off Site Barrel Storage

[Red Pine]

Hi All,

Wanted to get some input from others that probably more well versed in regs than I on this. I currently operate in a small(ish) rented space located in town, I plan to get into my whiskey and brandy production soon and may run out of space to store barrels while product ages. A solution I'm considering is storing at a different location which I know is allowed. Here is the potential problem, the location I want to store the barrels at is my farm which is located across the state line. Operation/production in ND, farm is in MN. Distance wise it maybe 15 miles, but crossing into another state has got to be problematic if not illegal all together. Anyone have thoughts/insight on this?

 

Thanks

From my understanding, a bonded premises, without having to have a separate DSP, must be within 10 miles of your primary DSP location.

Sounds like a state issue, not a federal one.

From a licensing perspective for sure, but also raises some potential questions about excise tax liability.
