Duty Suspended Ethanol – Bulk Spirits Supply for UK Distilleries

4 Sept

At New Age Spirits, we specialise in supplying bulk neutral grain spirit (NGS) and ethanol to distilleries across the UK. We offer duty suspended bulk spirits in volumes from 500 litres to 1,000 litres+, helping producers reduce upfront costs and manage excise more efficiently.

What Does “Duty Suspended” Mean?

“Duty suspended” means that UK excise duty is not charged at the point of sale. Instead, duty is only payable when the alcohol leaves an excise warehouse and enters the UK market.

This arrangement is widely used in the drinks industry and is ideal for:

Distilleries with excise warehouse approval
Producers working with bonded storage partners
Export-focused businesses (where UK alcohol duty doesn’t apply)

Benefits of Buying Duty Suspended Spirits

1. Better Cash Flow

No need to tie up capital in duty payments until your spirits are ready for release.

2. Flexible Pricing

Bulk ethanol supply under bond means you can scale production without immediate excise costs.

3. Growth Ready

As your distillery expands, duty suspended stock gives you room to grow.

4. Regulatory Confidence

We manage the compliance side, so you can focus on production.
