At nine litres of pure alcohol equivalent per year, the average Russian now drinks less than people in France or Germany, according to World Health Organization (WHO) data.
Long stereotyped as a nation of heavy drinkers, Russia has defied traditional clichés over the past decade as alcohol consumption has halved between 2008 and 2018, according to government statistics, driven by strict new state policies and a surge in health-conscious middle classes and incomes.
The crackdown on alcohol is a major about-turn from a government that only 13 years ago launched a state-produced, super low-cost vodka marketed to its poorest people. Since 2010, excise tax on alcohol has been raised, sales banned after 11pm and in sports events, adverts barred from television and drinking prohibited in public spaces.
Russians sober up under health-conscious Vladimir Putin
