    Definition

    The indicator is calculated by Statistics Denmark. Sales of pure alcohol in proportion to the number of persons over the age of 18 years old.

    This indicator differs from the UN definition, which includes all individuals aged 15 and above, as it only covers persons over the age of 18.
