There seems to have been a shortage fo slimline tonic for a long time now.

Does anyone know the reason for this and if or when it will become available?

Brexit, many items brought from the UK have been affected by added duty etc, making them, not profitable

I thought that Schweppes tonic that is sold in Cyprus came from a factory in mainland Greece.

We used to get many uk items from a supermarket here that had a tie up with Waitrose , we bought their waitrose tonic water, since brexit, most of their extensive range has dried up.
