Technical Standards Project Group

5 Jun 2023 12:04 PM | Deleted user

Members would be aware of two recent articles in the paper that discussed the issues around technical standards. The Technical Standards Project Group met during the Annual Conference.

We are aware of two producers in the market that used the term 鈥淪ingle Malt鈥 to describe their product. We are pleased to advise that both of the producers have agreed to cease using the term to describe, market and promote their products that do not meet the definition of whisky. They have both indicated their desire to be a part of the ongoing discussion regarding technical standards.

The Board of Australian Distillers have agreed upon and provided the following Terms of Reference for Naming, definition & classification of spirits.

  • The Technical Standards Project Group is advisory and any and all recommendations are subject to further review and acceptance or otherwise of the elected Management Committee of Australian Distillers.
  • Where required the Technical Standards Project Group will directly consult with Australian Distillers members.
    • any recommendation made to the committee in respect of the current definitions of brandy, rum and whisky must take into consideration the importance of retaining and enhancing the integrity and desired pre-eminence in domestic and international markets of Australian produced brandy, rum and whisky matured in wood for a minimum of 2 years.
    • all aspects of the current definitions of brandy, rum and whisky within the Excise Act 1901 and the Customs Act 1901 including 2 year maturation in wood shall be retained.
    • consideration of additional elaboration upon the existing definitions of brandy, rum and whisky within the Excise Act 1901 and the Customs Act 1901 shall be undertaken.
    • consideration of products currently not defined within the Excise Act 1901 and the Customs Act 1901 including products related to brandy, rum and whisky matured less than 2 years shall be undertaken.

Support for the Project Group will also be provided by Spirits and Cocktails Australia. We thank them for their assistance. As previously advised, technical support and advice will also be provided by the Scotch Whisky Association and process advice will be provided by the Irish Whiskey Association in relation to Geographic Indicators.

The Technical Standards Project Group will be hosting two webinars in the coming weeks, details will be posted separately. The Project Group will then meet again to discuss the issues raised.

Updates can also be found on the Technical Standards Project Group page in the members portal.
