Book excerpt: Excerpt from Distilled Spirits Fruit Brandy: Hearings Before the Committee on Ways and Means of the House of Representatives, 61st Congress, 3d Session, on H. R. 28626; January 17, 1911 Mr. Cabell. Just about a year ago we began the investigations, and when the investigation was completed we proceeded against some 30 or 40 of the manufacturing plants. We did not fail of conviction in a single case. The biggest case ended in Chicago about 15 days ago, in which we convicted a number of people under this very statute referred to, and if these distillers continued the practice they would be liable to conviction. The chairman. Do I understand that this covers only that part of the product which is made from the refuse of the grapes after the wine has been taken out of them? Mr. Cabell. Not exactly. All the juice is drawn off or only a por tion of it is drawn off, and the brandy is often made from the wine itself; sometimes they take the wine itself and distill that, and that makes, I think, the highest grade, but if sugar has been used in that, of course that also would be prohibited. The bulk of the brandy, however, is manufactured from the residue after that part of the must which is clear and of a uniform quality has been drawn off for the manufacture of either gra e juice or wine, including champa ne in the designation of wine. He portion from which brandy 1s is tilled is the residue rather than the refuse. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
