The rising enthusiasm for consuming liquor, primarily during cocktail parties and social or corporate meetings, is driving the growth of the worldwide crafts spirit market during the forecast period. Liquors are the essential ingredients used to make cocktails; thus, several beverages need at least one distilled spirit and are prominent in bars, hotels, and restaurants as for cocktails. The developing lifestyle of consumers worldwide, coupled with the adoption of a modern lifestyle, offers an opportunity for the market to prosper throughout the forecast period.
The global craft spirits market is expected to increase at a CAGR of 33.95% between 2020 and 2027, from US$14.305 billion to US$110.684 billion.
Why is the Demand for Craft Spirits Market Increasing?
Craft beverages are becoming more popular among millennials as they reach the legal drinking age and rising purchasing power in developing and developed regions worldwide, resulting in the rise of the market. Furthermore, this group of consumers tends to experiment with innovative and unconventional alcoholic beverages, which is also increasing the demand of the craft spirits market.
The market is divided into categories like brandy, gin, whiskey, rum, flavored liqueurs, and others. Whiskey is expected to gain a large market share over the forecasting period. The major reason is that it is the most popular craft alcohol, followed by gin and rum.
The popularity of gin is increasing globally primarily due to its remarkable taste and flavor. Nowadays, craft distilleries are more focused on the use of various spices, fruits, herbs, and botanicals for producing unique craft spirits, and this will drive market demand throughout the projected period. The majority of raw materials are obtained from the manufacturer's family-owned farming homes, having immense knowledge about producing fruits and grains.
The number of craft distilleries increased by 26% in 2017 over the previous year, based on the reports of American Craft Spirits Association. Employment also increased in the craft spirits industry, as the association data project discovered that more than 19,000 people worked full-time in craft spirits businesses in 2017. This increased by 47% from over 13,000 employees in 2016.
