Scotch whisky
Feb. 16th, 2009 10:41 pmFor reasons nobody has been able to fathom (unless they've actually tasted ouzo), the Greeks drink more Scotch per capita than anyone else. Equally surprising, the French buy more whisky in a month than Cognac in a year. France remains the largest importer in volume terms, but higher margins make Spain's market more lucrative. Last year it was the world's top market for Scotch in value terms with sales worth $460 million.
