Why has FSSAI issued prohibition-of-sale orders against liquor makers? | Explained
The Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) issued prohibition-of-sale orders against several rum and whisky brands for mislabeling neutral spirit as aged liquor. The FSSAI clarified that this does not ban all flavorings, as additions like coffee or vanilla are still permitted under certain conditions. The decision aims to ensure compliance with food safety standards.
