S 2852 New York Senate · 2023 Regular Session

Authorizes the direct intrastate and interstate shipment of alcoholic beverages

This bill authorizes the direct shipment of liquor, cider, mead, and braggot across state lines into New York, expanding on existing rules that already allow wine shipments. To participate, out-of-state distilleries must obtain a specific license from the state authority, pay an annual fee, and agree to ship no more than 36 cases per year to residents aged 21 or older for personal use only. The law requires strict compliance measures, including age verification at delivery, mandatory signatures, clear labeling on packages, and the payment of applicable state and local taxes. Additionally, out-of-state shippers must maintain detailed records for three years and consent to state jurisdiction for enforcement purposes.
