To All Importers and Bottlers of Distilled Spirits:
Section 39 b 2 of Regulations No. 5,1 requires that, if the age is stated upon labels for rum or brandy, or Scotch, Irish or Canadian whiskey, it shall be stated in substan tially the following form: This nun i s _____ years old, "This brandy is ___ years old, or This whiskey is _____years old, the blank to contain the age of the youngest distilled spirits in the product.
Under this section of the regulations, the Administration has heretofore permitted imported rums, brandies and whiskeys to be marketed with age statements reading All o v e r_____ years old, All more t h a n ______ years old, or A ll_____ years or more old, provided the statement is substantiated by an appropriate governmental certificate conforming thereto. It has, however, been brought to the attention of the Administration th at the use of statements of this nature has tended to create, in the retail market, a false impression as to the true age of the product.
In view of these facts, the Administration has now con cluded that age statements reading All o v e r_____ years old, All more t h a n _____ years old, A ll______ years or more old and similar statements, will no longer be author ized, regardless of the language of the governmental certifi cate accompanying the importation. In order to bring the age statement into conformity with Section 39 b 2 of Regulations No. 5, it will be necessary to eliminate the words over, more than, or more and similar words, so that the statement in all instances will read _____ years old, A ll------- years old, This whiskey i s ______ years old, etc.
This ruling is not applicable to products now in customs custody or to products entering customs custody prior to May 1 , 1938. It will, however, be strictly applied to all im ported distilled spirits entering customs custody on and after May 1,1938.
