Bill overview
This bill, the Keeping Our Manufacturers from Being Unfairly taxed while Championing Health Act (KOMBUCHA), aims to exempt low alcohol by volume kombucha from federal excise taxes and regulations currently applied to alcoholic beverages. Specifically, it clarifies the definition of kombucha as a fermented beverage with no more than 1.25% alcohol by volume, made from specific ingredients like tea and fruit juice. The bill updates the Internal Revenue Code to ensure kombucha producers are not subject to taxes typically applied to wine or beer.
