(1) Unless with the express permission and under the direction of the Comptroller of Excise, and unless subject to approved conditions as to correction of strength, there must not be mixed with or added to any low-wines or spirits in a distillery any substance which either increases the density thereof or prevents the true strength thereof from being ascertained by the approved hydrometer.
(2) The strength as corrected in accordance with such approved conditions shall for the purpose of subsection (3) be deemed to be the actual strength of such low-wines or spirits.
(3) If this section is contravened the distiller shall, for each offence, incur a penalty not exceeding $1,000, and all low-wines, spirits and mixtures with respect to which the offence is committed shall be forfeited. (Amended by Act 2 of 1992)
