Sales hits come with many a surprise. We may, for instance, conclude that Estonians are big watermelon and banana lovers. The choice of milk is largely up to price, each chain’s favourites being their special house-brand-packaged products.
While Prisma says their first vodka shows up at 89th place only, Laua Viin is quite a bestseller in both Rimi and Selver. And while with beers the tastes vary, Laua Viin is favoured vodka in Selver and Rimi alike.
