GENERAL INSTRUCTIONS

Item 5.

Every person who is required to file a distilled spirits formula under 27
CFR Parts 5, 19, and 26 will submit this form to the Advertising,
Labeling, and Formulation Division, Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and
Trade Bureau, 1310 G Street, NW, Box 12, Washington, DC 20005.
Permit approval and formula approval are required prior to manufacture
of any product requiring a formula. Production may begin when the
proprietor receives an approved formula on TTB F 5110.38.

(a)

List all ingredients which will be used. Flavoring or blending
materials must be identified by flavor title, and the name and
address of the manufacturer or the importer; if alcoholic, the
percentage of alcohol by volume and the manufacturer's
commercial formula number; or if approved on TTB F 5110.38,
the formula number and date of approval.

(b)

Identify all coloring agents added directly to the product or
contained in flavoring materials. Certified food colors must be
identified by FD&C number, for example "FD&C Yellow No. 5."

(c)

If any type of wine (including vermouth) is to be used in the
product, state the kind, percentage of wine to be used, whether the
wine is domestic or imported, whether the wine contains added wine
spirits, and the percentage of alcohol by volume of the wine.

(d)

If the finished product is to be labeled as containing a particular
class and type of distilled spirits (such as "Blackberry Liqueur &
Brandy" or "Coffee Liqueur & Non-Dairy Creamer"), the ingredients
used to produce the particular class and type of distilled spirits must
be listed in a manner so that they are distinguishable from the
remaining ingredients for the finished product.

The number of copies to be filed is as follows: Two copies for TTB's
records, and either one additional copy, or one additional copy for each
manufacturing facility identified in Item 2.
If the formula is approved, two copies will be retained by TTB and
the remaining approved copy(ies) will be sent to the addressee. The
addressee will forward approved copies (or two-sided reproductions) to
each facility identified in Item 2. The copy(ies) must be retained
for 3 years.
SPECIFIC INSTRUCTIONS
Item 1. The class and type must agree with one of the class and type
designations in the regulations issued under the Federal Alcohol
Administration Act, except for distilled spirit specialties or cocktails
which may be designated as such for formula approval. Do not show
a brand or fanciful name.
Item 2. Enter the name, complete address, and plant number of the
applicant and the city, STATE, and plant number for all other plants
where the product will be manufactured.

Item 6. Number formulas in sequence. A proprietor of more than one
distilled spirits plant must use a unique system of serial numbers which
does not duplicate any formula number used at any plant prior to
January 1, 1980.
CONDITIONS FOR FORMULA APPROVAL

Item 3. If the product will be bottled at more than one proof, state the
alcoholic content as a range to include all proofs at which the product
will be bottled.

This approval is granted under 27 CFR, part 5 and does not in any way
provide exemption from or waiver of the provisions of the Food and Drug
Administration regulations relating to the use of food and color additives
in food products.

Item 4. Enter DSP number and formula number for each formula
which is superseded.

Addition of remnants or returned merchandise to a completed product
made under the same formula is permitted.
