cognac tariff appears to be quite low

the results of a Chinese probe into European cognac imports,
after the European Commission imposed tariffs on imports of
Chinese electric vehicles

imported cognac exposure may be ~1%-2%, given the proportion of
cognac in the group's profit

produce a 1%-2% profit headwind for Orora
