Distillery Services
Comprehensive Compliance Services for Distilleries.
The distilled spirits industry is heavily regulated, and keeping your operations compliant requires expert attention to detail. Our tailored compliance services ensure your distillery meets all federal, state, and local requirements. From securing the right DSP permits and managing transfers in bond to excise tax reporting and formula approvals, we handle the complexities so you can focus on producing world-class spirits.
1
TTB and Home State Permits
Start Your Distillery with the Right Permits.
We assist distilleries in obtaining and maintaining federal Distilled Spirits Plant (DSP) permits for production, processing, and storage. Our expertise covers all aspects of TTB applications, from completing complex documentation to navigating state-level requirements. Whether you’re setting up a new distillery, adding bonded storage space, or transitioning between operating statuses, we handle the details to get you approved.
2
DTC and 3-Tier Licensing & Compliance
Navigate Direct-to-Consumer and Distribution Laws.
We provide expert guidance to help your distillery comply with the requirements for both direct-to-consumer (DTC) sales and the traditional 3-tier system. We’ll help secure the necessary permits for shipping directly to consumers in eligible states and ensure compliance with distribution agreements for wholesalers. From brand registrations to maintaining shipping logs for DTC sales, we keep your operations running smoothly and legally.

TTB Auditing and Excise Tax Reporting
Keep Your Distillery Compliant and Penalty-Free.
Our team conducts comprehensive audits of your TTB reports, ensuring your filings are accurate and complete. We also specialize in excise tax reporting, helping you calculate and file taxes on distilled spirits produced, bottled, or removed from bond. For distilleries transferring spirits in bond, we handle the submission of transfer forms and ensure compliance with tax deferral rules, saving you time and reducing risk.
4
COLAs and Formulas
Simplify Label and Formula Approvals.
We handle the entire process of obtaining Certificates of Label Approval (COLAs) for your distilled spirits, ensuring compliance with TTB labeling requirements. For products that require formula approvals—such as flavored spirits, cordials, and ready-to-drink cocktails—we streamline the submission process, guiding you through ingredient documentation and TTB requirements. From creative labels to innovative recipes, we help you bring your products to market faster.
5
Recordkeeping and Operational Compliance
Stay Organized and Prepared for Audits
We assist distilleries with maintaining all required records for production, processing, and storage. Our services include guidance on maintaining accurate daily production logs, processing reports, and storage inventory records. Whether it’s tracking spirits in bond or verifying transfer documents, we ensure your records meet TTB and state-level audit requirements. We also assist with implementing compliant systems for operational record-keeping, giving you peace of mind.
