US spirits exports reach $2.06bn
09 March, 2023
A new report by the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States (DISCUS) has revealed that total US spirits exports reached a record $2.06bn in 2022, buoyed by the temporary halt to retaliatory tariffs, with American whiskey exports to the UK remaining lower than pre-tariff levels.
American whiskey exports to EU have decreased by a third since the bloc imposed a 25% retaliatory tariff in June 2018.
