| Abstract: |
It’s a tempting storyline for teen dramas: a group of rebellious schoolkids sneak into the science lab and make off with a stash of ethanol to dilute and sell to friends as bootleg vodka. How are their friends to know what’s really in the bottles? Drink fraud is a serious business. In a recent joint operation lasting four months, Interpol and Europol seized 26.4 million litres of counterfeit alcohol. Fake or illegally produced alcohol is produced in unlicensed distilleries or even homes. |
