Surely it CAN'T be litres of pure alcohol?!?! One litre of pure alcohol is aproximately = 2 litres of spirits (whisky, vodka etc) So that would mean that every single person in Luxemborg consumes around 31 Litres of spirits a year. That's a little less than one bottle of vodka a week for every man woman and child in the country, or four bottles a week for the average family!!!! |

This is a thoroughly useless stat - it needs to be measured by alcohol content, not total volume. Czechs drink beer, Russians drink vodka - a liter does not = a liter. |

Seems like Europe has the vast majority of nations in the top 30. Asia and Africa are out of the picture, and Russia's famed alcohol consumption doesn't make the list either. Is this just because statistics are more readily available in Europe and America? Seems odd. |
