Alcohol & Tobacco

You are allowed to bring the following into the UK from outside the EU without paying duty and/or tax:

1 litre of spirits or strong liqueurs over 22% volume
Or
2 litres of fortified wine (such as port or sherry), sparkling wine or any other alcoholic drink that is less than 22% volume
You are allowed to combine your alcohol allowances, for example, if you buy 1 litre of fortified wine you can also bring in half a litre of spirits. You are not allowed to go over your total alcohol allowance.

In addition to the above you may also bring back both of the following:

16 litres of beer
4 litres of still wine
If you are bringing tobacco back into the UK you will be allowed to bring in one from the following list:

200 cigarettes
100 cigarillos
50 cigars
250 grams of tobacco
You are allowed to combine your tobacco allowances, for example, if you bring in 100 cigarettes you can also bring in 25 cigars.

You are not allowed to combine alcohol and tobacco allowances.

Don't think Brazil has any restrictions on what you can export, but I'll ask my brother (used to live there, moving back next month).
