Overview
This HTS classification, 2208.20.60.00, specifically covers grape brandies and other spirits derived from distilling grape wine or grape marc, which are presented in containers holding more than 4 liters. The defining characteristic for this subcategory is the value of the product, which must exceed $2.38 per liter. This premium valuation distinguishes these spirits from those with a lower per-liter value.
The "Other" designation at this level implies that these spirits are not categorized elsewhere within the broader 2208.20.00 range based on specific production methods or alcoholic strength beyond what is generally covered by "Spirits obtained by distilling grape wine or grape marc." The key differentiating factor for this particular code is the larger container size (over 4 liters) and the aforementioned value threshold.
As this is a leaf node within the HTS, there are no further subcategories. Therefore, the classification relies entirely on the precise criteria of the product being grape brandy or a similar spirit, packaged in containers exceeding 4 liters, and valued at over $2.38 per liter. Examples could include bulk shipments of premium aged grappa or marc brandy intended for further blending or bottling by distributors.
