Native wineries and native distilleries; update tax and permit provisions, and allow in-state direct shipment.
SB 2823 allows Native wineries and distilleries in Mississippi to ship native wines and spirits directly to state residents without using the state's Alcohol Beverage Control Division. It expands their permits to cover up to two additional tasting rooms (each requiring a separate permit) and exempts them from a 24.5% markup for on-site retailer pickups. The bill requires clear labeling on shipments, annual sales reporting, and prohibits shipping to counties still under "dry law" bans. It also mandates that recipients be 21+ and use products for personal consumption only.
