The Russian vodka market is defined as the production, distribution, and consumption of clear spirits distilled from fermented grains or potatoes. The Russia vodka market is influenced by Russian culture, pricing policies, taxation, consumer behaviour, and government policies on alcohol in Russia. The key drivers are including import substitution, where the local brands have substituted existing western brands, premiumization, and consumers have opted for better brews. This market has been shown resilience despite government-mandated price increases and excise duties to curb consumption, especially in emerging markets like India and China.
