after that , until the end of the pacific war , while various taxes such as a brewing tax , a commodity tax , and a tax on the total shipment were imposed on sake , wine had no imposed liquor tax except the license fee for brewing . それ以後太平洋戦争末期にかけて、日本酒には造石税・物品税・庫出税などさまざまな課税がなされていくが、ワインは醸造免許にかかわる税のみで、商品に対する酒税は免除されていた。
the government explained in writing that the current tax rate is a tentative one until the revenue from trade and manufacture such as documentary stamp tax and commodity tax gets on track and that in the future the tax rate will be lowered as the revenue from trade and manufacture increase and as the financial expenditure is restrained and that ultimately the government is planning to lower the tax rate to 1% (in the article 6 of the regulation of land-tax reform [1873 ]; this article was abolished in the regulation of land-tax , which was established later [1884 ]) . 現在の税率は印紙税・物品税などの商工業などからの収入が一定の軌道にのるまでの暫定的な税率で、将来はそこからの歳入と財政支出の抑制によって地租依存度を減少させて最終的には1％にまで引き下げると説明しているからである（地租改正条例第6条、地租条例で廃止）。
