Nutritional analysis of an alcoholic beverage

Our nutrient content analysis of alcoholic beverage samples includes the required analyses:

• Moisture

• Ash

• Total fat (solvent extraction following acid hydrolysis)

• Protein (Kjeldahl method)

• Sugar profile (HPAEC-PAD method) including fructose, glucose, lactose, maltose and sucrose

• Sodium (Na) (ICP method)

• NaCl calculated from sodium (Na)

• Calculated carbohydrate and energy content

• Alcohol content (GC-FID method)

According to EU food labeling regulations, it is not currently mandatory to provide a nutrition declaration on alcoholic beverages sold in the EU. Nonetheless, companies are encouraged to provide the information voluntarily.
