The order said that the distiller used nature-identical and artificial flavouring substances. Based on the communication, the state and prohibition and excise commissionerate wrote to the Tamil Nadu State Marketing Corporation (Tasmac) on Thursday to stop procuring the 11 varieties of liquor from Enrica as well as not to sell them at retail shops.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"8\"\/>The retail sale was stopped on Friday, and FSSAI issued a fresh communication on the same day revoking its earlier prohibition order. Prohibition commissioner has communicated the same to the Tasmac management.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"10\"\/>While FSSAI&#8217;s U-turn raised eyebrows, officials said that the company had appealed against the prohibition order promising compliance, after which the prohibition was revoked and instead an improvement notice was issued.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"13\"\/>&#8220;The improvement notice is valid for 30 days before which the distiller should submit a compliance report,&#8221; said FSSAI director (southern regional office) V K Pancham.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"15\"\/>The improvement notice contains conditions with respect to labelling and general practices under Schedule 4 of FSSAI Regulations including good manufacturing practices and good hygiene practices.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"18\"\/>FSSAI officials said that the existing stock of the liquor varieties are consumable and can be sold.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"21\"\/>FSSAI is expected to carry out similar inspections at other liquor manufacturing units in the State in the coming weeks.<span class=\"id-r-component br\" data-pos=\"23\"\/>Though the prohibition commissionerate has written to Tasmac lifting the ban on 11 liquor varieties, Tasmac is yet to formally communicate the same to district managers, as liquor shops are closed on Saturday owing to Independence Day. &#8220;If we receive any confirmation on lifting the ban on Sunday, we will sell those liquor varieties,&#8221; said a representative of Tasmac retail employees.<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a
