alcohol tax
Spirits revenue charge
A tax levied on alcoholic beverages—beer, wine, and spirits.
Alcohol taxes are among the oldest forms of government revenue, applied at production, distribution, or point of sale.
They serve dual purposes: generating income and discouraging consumption.
The alcohol tax on spirits is higher than on beer.
