12. Portugal
Alcohol consumption per capita: 12.9l
Current status: decreasing (9.88 in 2014)
Although alcoholism rates in Portugal have dropped a lot since 15 years ago (having reached the record of 14.21 liters of alcohol per capita in 2003, to 13.11 in 2006, to 12.25 in 2010 and so on…) it remains one of the top drinking countries with the highest alcoholism rates in the world. And, of course, you have guessed, Portuguese drink the most wine (55%), followed by beer and spirits.
