For wine destroyed in your distillery, you have to file a notice with TTB before commencing destruction, however, spirits have no such requirement.

It is customary to have losses associated with angel\u2019s share, as well as bottling\/processing losses and losses due to redistillation. Properly tracked and explained, these losses are a green flag for TTB auditors, because their presence indicates that you are regularly gauging and tracking your tank contents through the production process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, there are scenarios where Losses become taxable (and so you must either voluntarily pay the tax, or file for relief from the tax liability). One of those scenarios is Unauthorized Voluntary Destruction; another is Theft\/Tampering. There\u2019s a section for \u201cmissing packages\u201d (i.e. barrels that you can\u2019t locate). Finally, we have thresholds specified for \u201cExcessive\u201d In-Transit and In-Storage losses:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-gallop-background has-none-background has-chevron-bottom has-altbackground-background-color has-background\"><div class=\"background-media\"><\/div><div class=\"has-background-dim has-background-dim-value-50 has-altbackground-background-color has-background\"><\/div><div class=\"background-container\"><div class=\"background-area\" style=\"max-width:980px\">\n<p><strong><sup>(b) Losses from theft, tampering, or unauthorized voluntary destruction<\/sup><\/strong><sup>. Whenever any spirits [&#8230;] or wines are lost or destroyed in bond, whether by theft, tampering, or unauthorized voluntary destruction, the proprietor may elect voluntarily to pay the tax on the quantity lost. If the proprietor does not elect to pay the tax, the proprietor must promptly report the loss or destruction to the appropriate TTB officer. TTB may require that the proprietor file any claim for relief from the tax in accordance with \u00a7 19.263.<\/sup><br><strong><sup>(c) Missing packages<\/sup><\/strong><sup>. When a proprietor cannot locate or otherwise account for any packages of spirits, denatured spirits, or wine recorded as deposited on bonded premises, the proprietor must promptly report that fact to the appropriate TTB officer. In such case the proprietor must either pay the tax on the lost spirits, denatured spirits, or wines or file a claim for relief from the tax in accordance with \u00a7 19.263.<\/sup><br><strong><sup>(d) Excessive in-transit losses<\/sup><\/strong><sup>. A proprietor must promptly report excessive in-transit losses to the appropriate TTB officer. As a general rule, when spirits, denatured spirits, or wines are received in bond in bulk conveyances TTB will consider as excessive a loss that exceeds 1 percent of the quantity consigned. However, in the case of transcontinental transfers of wine in bond, TTB will consider as excessive only a loss in excess of 2 percent of the quantity of wine consigned<\/sup>.<br><strong><sup>(e) Excessive storage losses<\/sup><\/strong><sup>. A proprietor must pay the tax on excessive storage account losses of spirits unless the proprietor files a claim for remission in accordance with \u00a7 19.263 and TTB allows the claim under \u00a7 19.268. TTB will consider a storage account loss as excessive when the quantity of spirits lost during a calendar quarter from all storage tanks and stored bulk conveyances exceeds 1.5 percent of the total quantity contained in the tanks and stored bulk conveyances during the calendar quarter.<\/sup><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Breaking this down: theft, tampering, unauthorized voluntary destruction and missing barrels (\u201cpackages\u201d is TTB-speak for barrels) are all taxable losses <em>unless<\/em> you notify TTB and file a claim for relief.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In contrast, In-transit losses are only taxable if they exceed 1 percent of the quantity consigned (i.e. the quantity shown by the sending DSP on their TIB paperwork).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Similarly, losses in the Storage account are taxable <em>if <\/em>they exceed 1.5% of the total quantity stored during the quarter. To compute this threshold, add your Starting OHBOM PGs for the quarter to the sum of all Receipts into Storage for the quarter, and divide your total quarter\u2019s Loss quantity into this figure. If it exceeds 1.5%, your Storage losses are taxable. Angel\u2019s Share losses from barrels are not typically included in this computation \u2013 it refers to losses determined during withdrawal, dumping for mingling and emptying or inventorying storage tanks.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>At first glance, you might wonder why regulations distinguish between Voluntary Destruction and Losses.
