Changing consumer tastes and resurgence of the cocktail trend is one of the major factors that drives the market globally. In addition, whiskey manufacturers are investing in R&D to promote product innovation and sustainability, in order to enhance characteristics, taste, and meet the changing preferences of their consumers.

Young consumers are more inclined toward well-crafted, flavored spirits that are artisanally
produced and have an authentic, heritage-rich brand story. For this reason, whiskey particularly has become one of the fastest selling products among other alcoholic beverages. Bartenders are increasingly using top-tier whiskey brands as an ingredient in cocktails. Hence, the “cocktail culture” trend has become one the driving factors for the whiskey market. Furthermore, the rise in spirit-led tourism, especially in the western countries, has propelled tourists from overseas to indulge and develop taste for local beverages, including whiskeys. Countries such as the UK, France, the U.S., Scotland and others, have developed spirit led-tourism, which enables tourists to comprehend the history and distillation processes involved in producing whiskeys. This factor is expected to drive the whiskey market globally.

In the recent past, the number of bars, pubs, breweries and restaurants serving alcohol has increased manifold. The major factors driving this growth are rise in consumer spending, rapid urbanization, product innovation and rising demand from millennial population. The acceptance of alcoholic beverages, for social events including marriages, events, award functions, and several similar social gatherings has generated a positive growth prospect for the whiskey market.

The whisky market has developed at a fast pace in the recent years, and more people than ever now consider whisky an affordable luxury. The increase in acceptance also led to growth in demand for different whisky such as premium and organic whisky.
