What are the prices for alcohol and cigarettes in Sri Lanka?

Alcohol and cigarettes in Sri Lanka are expensive due to high taxes: local Lion beer costs from 480 rupees per 0.5L can, and vodka starts from 5000 rupees per 0.75L. Cigarettes begin at 1800 rupees per pack. In cafes and restaurants, alcohol prices are usually twice as high as in stores, so it's more economical to buy in supermarkets.
