5 States that Drink the Most Wine

3. New Hampshire

Wine Consumption per Capita: 0.76 gallons

New Hampshire has relatively high alcohol sales per capita due in part to its state-operated liquor stores. Alcohol is a big revenue generator for the state government and the low prices in stores located near the state’s borders draw in customers from across the region. 

The designation as a ‘control state’ enables New Hampshire liquor outlets to offer the widest selection of name-brand wines and spirits at great prices with no taxes. That’s why more than 12 million customers from throughout North America shop for alcohol in the Granite State each year.

With a per capita ethanol consumption of 4.43 gallons, New Hampshire is the Number 1 Alcoholic State in America
