Tasmac halts sale of 11 Enrica liquor brands in T.N. following FSSAI inspection

The Tamil Nadu State Marketing Corporation (Tasmac) has halted the sale of 11 liquor brands produced by Enrica Enterprises Pvt. Ltd. following an inspection by the Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI). The brands impacted include a range of brandies and rum, flagged for containing natural identical and artificial flavouring substances.

The FSSAI's Central Designated Officer conducted the inspection at the company's licensed premises. Tasmac has instructed senior managers to cease the sale of these brands immediately and also to stop transferring them from depots to retail outlets. A Tasmac source confirmed this as part of the FSSAI's nationwide inspection campaign, hinting that more liquor manufacturers may face similar scrutiny in the future.
