Does anyone understand why TTB is proposing the you must use more specific whiskey names… i.e. Wheat, Rye, Corn, Barley – and can’t simply use “Whiskey” as a more generic name.

Thanks for adding to the discussion, Jason. It’s disappointing to here that there has been no mention of American Single Malt, a still growing category. Let me know how I can help!

I went with Wolverine raider boots the last round. They are not slip on, but they are really comfortable.

Here is an update from the American Single Malt Whiskey Commission (ASMWC)(http://www.americansinglemaltwhiskey.org/), written by Steve Hawley from Westland Distilling. The lack of inclusion of ASMW is just one aspect of the proposed updates that are troublesome, beyond those listed in the general thread, above. Please note the section highlighted…[Read more]

Mark Shilling started the topic Barrel Size Limits in the forum TTB 5 years, 7 months ago
I think this is by far the most controversial of the proposed changes, and I am fairly certain no one will be in favor of limiting barrel sizes. Also, I don’t think it is TTB’s specific intent to do so, but rather that are asking the question in order to see if there is any compelling feedback for do so. That being said, I have seen a few people…[Read more]

Mark as you have already pointed out elsewhere defining a barrel as approximately 50 gallons is very problematic. It is a copious document that I am still wading through and hope to have further comments soon.

Thought this might be helpful for those of you working on marketing plans. I shared this over on the blog for High-Proof Creative:
Marketing entails way more than just than social media, and it may be one reason you do not have a full-scale marketing plan yet. Clients often tell me it comes down to lack of time or knowledge of what to include…

You have to include a specific proof on your label submission, but because you may change proof without re-approval you can then handwrite the details in later no matter the number you submitted originally.

Mark Shilling started the topic Discussion of TTB proposed regs on Part 5 in the forum TTB 5 years, 7 months ago
There’s been lots of buzz about the proposed TTB regs with the focus on labeling and advertising across the spirits categories. As TTB attempts to modernize the regulations, let’s use this forum to raise those areas of particular interest to our industry. An robust exchange will have us better prepared to respond. Share your thoughts…[Read more]

Cayce Kovacs started the topic ABV/ Proof on the label in the forum Labeling 5 years, 7 months ago
How do you get a label approved if you are going to hand write in the ABV/proof at the time of bottling? I just submitted a label and had “_____ABV / _____ Proof” and put in the notes to the reviewer that it would be between 80 and 100 proof and would be written in for the actual proof at the time of bottling. They rejected it and said it had to…[Read more]

I always point to Sketchers as they have work shoes and boots (for women and men too) that are safety toe (some with composite toe vs steel toe, much lighter), electrical hazard, as well as slip resistant.
