What is taxable and what is non-taxable alcohol?
Pure alcohol is considered taxable alcohol. The Federal Government requires an excise tax of $13.50/ proof gallon (200 proof, pure alcohol =$27.00/wine gallon). A tax exempt certificate is required to be on file with Alchemical Solutions for us not to charge the Federal excise tax on pure alcohol. Eligibility for exemption is determined by the BATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms). Alchemical Solutions does not make any profit from collecting the tax, nor do we receive a portion of the tax. All denatured Ethanol products do not require the payment of a federal excise tax.
