Australia is a very small market dominated by Bacardi, Pernod Ricard and of course Diagio. But recently a bunch of smaller distributors have been nudging their way in offering brands like Balcones, Plantation Rum, WhistlePig and Amrut Whisky from India. Oh, and we are heavily taxed on everything, especially petrol and grog.
