For a spirit to be labeled "Bottled In Bond" it must be:
- Composed of the same type of spirits and produced from the same class of materials
- Produced in a single distilling season by one distiller at one distillery
- Stored for at least 4 years in wooden containers
- Reduced in proof with by the addition of only pure water to exactly 100 proof
- The label must bear the real name of the distillery and the plant number where it was produced and where it was bottled
