Statute overview

About this statute

Certain ciders, natural ciders, and manzanada are treated as not fit for consumption when they are adulterated, exceed tolerance limits, fail required characteristics, show uncorrectable chemical or microbiological alteration, or have serious defects in color, smell, taste, or pressure. This article defines several cider by-products: orujo, borra, segundas, and piquetas, including their fresh, stored, and dried forms. Cider-making by-products may not be used directly for human consumption, and each by-product may be used only for the listed permitted purposes or other uses allowed by the relevant laws. Cider producers and bottlers must file a triplicate declaration in the first 15 days of April for each cider mill and bottling plant they have. The circulation of cider between presses, or between a press and bottlers, and between bottlers, may be done in containers of any capacity if they meet the conditions in Article 108 of Decree 835/1972.
