It’s an interesting strategy to launch an on-premise brand only. But it makes sense in view of the fact that the two major off-premise chains are competing with each other on price.

The reason why the Northern Territory government is so keen to see these vodka mixes disappear is that it fears the drink could aggravate alcohol abuse especially among its Aborigines. The Northern Territory is home to only 220,000 people, while Australia has 22.5 million inhabitants. However, over 30 percent of the Northern Territory’s population is Aboriginal.
