Тбилиси и алкоголь. Сакральные традиции, глобальные тренды и тревожная статистика.

Georgia is home to the world's oldest wine culture — with evidence of winemaking dating back 8,000 years. But what does drinking culture actually look like in Tbilisi today? In this video, we go beyond the history books for a deep cultural investigation into how Georgia drinks in the 21st century. We sit down with a winemaker to explore the ancient traditions that made Georgian wine a UNESCO-recognized heritage. Then we hit the streets of Tbilisi — visiting a cocktail bar, a craft beer pub, and a traditional chacha and infusion bar — talking to the people who shape the city's drinking scene every night. Along the way, we dig into WHO statistics on alcohol consumption in Georgia: where the country ranks globally, how its drinking patterns compare to other wine-producing nations, and what the numbers reveal beneath the surface of this celebrated wine culture. This is not a travel vlog. It's a sober look at one of the world's most fascinating — and least understood — drinking cultures.
