WHAT ARE THE TOLERANCE LIMITS IN ALCOHOLIC STRENGTH [%V/V] FOR BOTTLED WHISKY?


[ Note; for example if the label in bottled whisky mentions alcoholic
strength as 40%v/v or 43% v/v , what are the upper & lower tolerance
limits in alcoholic strength allowed especially in US & UK?

Sorry you got no answer, In the USA, my guess is, any Federal limits
are vaugue and/or not inforced. Likely some or most of the individual
States have a regulation of some sort.   Neil

I worked for a whisky comapny for nigh on 7 years and there was no
upper limit constraints to alcoholic streength (except ones wallet and
palate) there  is however a legal lower limit ... for it to be
designated whisky it has to be at least 40 per cent proof. I trust
this helps
