5 Countries that Drink the Most Champagne

3. United Kingdom

Total Champagne Consumption in 2022: 28 million bottles

Although around 16 years ago, the U.K. had a huge Champagne consumption of over 39 million bottles, the country still remains among the Top 5 Champagne Drinking Countries with 28 million bottles consumed last year. Adding yet more strength to the U.K. market are Champagne sales through ‘top end fine wine merchants’, comprising a large amount of high-end bubbly, including prestige cuvées and limited releases. 

The popularity of brand Champagne was incredible in the U.K. market last year, and even when faced with higher prices (lower or no discounts) and/or non-availability of favored brands, the country’s consumers chose their beloved bubbly.
