    Probably due in some significance to the application of a Tax ‘Escalator’ on Gin which hikes the excise tax annually by 2% above the rate of inflation (RPI)
    This puts a minimum total tax of approx £7 before production, wholesaler and retailer costs and margins are added.

    Makes you think eh
