In looking...ours is 18% liquor control board tax and 7% county tax. Of course, you think that would be it...but in PA, we still pay tax for the Johnstown flood of 1936 (a non removed temporary tax) which on alcohol is another 10%. We still pay for the flood in our gas tax too...

And my wife wonders why I try to hit the duty free when we travel...
