I mean it as this....I got my 1st bottle of fake alcohol in Rio a few weeks ago, is more prevalent in Thailand...mafia/drug lords make a lot of money distributing fake alcohol at a reduced price ... since I only drink Bacardi, it's very obvious to me when it happens. Not sure the bar boys could tell whiskey from rubbing alcohol and since they drink a good amount of it, don't realize the harm they are doing to themselves.
