RELATES TO: KRS 243.030, 243.120
STATUTORY AUTHORITY: KRS 241.060
NECESSITY, FUNCTION, AND CONFORMITY: KRS 243.120 limits a distiller who is also a rectifier from bottling any product not made at its own distillery. This administrative regulation allows a distiller who is also a rectifier to ship the product from their distillery to their rectifying plant to be bottled. This is necessary in the instances where a distiller wishes to blend whiskey that has been produced at its own distillery with whiskeys produced at other distilleries.
