Kombucha Tax Exemption: Relief for Producers and Consumers
New rules exempt kombucha from alcohol excise taxes and regulations. This means kombucha producers will not be treated like brewers, potentially lowering production costs and making kombucha more accessible and possibly cheaper for consumers.
Key points
Kombucha, a fermented beverage, will no longer be subject to excise taxes or regulations intended for alcoholic beverages.
Kombucha producers will not need to meet the requirements imposed on brewers, simplifying their operations.
The definition of kombucha is clearly outlined, including its maximum alcohol content (up to 1.25%) and ingredients.
