Volume sales of spirits declined in 2022, despite the recovery on on-trade consumption, following the lifting of COVID-19-related restrictions at the beginning of the year. This was due to a significant decline in off-trade volumes, as the home-cocktail making trend, which took off during the pandemic, began to wane. Cocktail making was seen as a fun way to pass the time during lockdown when bars and restaurants were closed.
