Hong Kong people drink a record low in 16 years. Beer and red wine are the most popular among Hong Kong people

Every Christmas season or festive day, many people will drink to celebrate.

In the end, Hong Kong people drink more and less, and how do they compare with other countries?

Which wine is most popular with Hong Kong people?

The following is your disassembly one by one.

According to estimates by the Department of Health, Hong Kong will consume 16.27 million litres of pure alcohol in 2020, which is equivalent to 8.6 standard swimming pools, an increase from 2004.

However, the population increased by 14% during the same period, which is far more than the amount of alcohol consumed.

It is worth noting that the alcohol content of various alcoholic beverages is different. For example, the alcohol content of beer is 5%, while that of red wine and spirits is 12% and 40% respectively. Therefore, the Department of Health calculates the pure alcohol content.

Since 2018, the amount of alcohol consumed by Hong Kong people has plummeted.

Calculated on the basis of pure alcohol consumption, the per capita consumption dropped from 2.85 liters to 2.46 liters in 2020, a decrease of 15.9%.

When the Department of Health estimates the pure alcohol consumption and per capita consumption of Hong Kong people, including storage and drinking by visitors to Hong Kong, the actual alcohol consumption may be even less.

How much alcohol does Hong Kong people drink compared with other countries and regions?

In 2018, Hong Kong people drank 2.85 liters of wine on average, ranking 14th in the Asia-Pacific region.

Laos drinks the most alcohol in Asia, with 10.7 liters per capita, followed by South Korea and Vietnam, with 9.7 liters and 8.7 liters per capita, respectively.

What kind of wine do Hong Kong people drink the most?

According to import data from the Census and Statistics Department, in addition to common alcohols such as beer and red wine, the import volume of fermented beverages such as cider, perry, and mead ranks third, with 6.38 million liters.

Secondly, about 3.8 million liters of liquor and Japanese sake were imported.

Taking imported beer and ale alone, the net import volume for the first 10 months of this year was 100 million liters. In 2021, the population aged 15 or over will be 6.545 million. Each person will have 16 liters of beer, which is equivalent to nearly 50 bottles of 330ml beer.

Finally, I would like to remind everyone that according to the recommendations of the Department of Health, non-drinkers should not start drinking because they believe that drinking can improve their health.

If you choose to drink alcoholic beverages, you should control or even abstain from alcohol to reduce alcohol-related harm.
