I forget where I heard or read this, but there was a story or folklore related to this. It was about a boss of a company in like the Mad Men era when drinking on the clock wasn’t as faux pas.
The story goes that the boss learned his salesmen were drinking liquor on their lunch breaks. So he made a company policy that vodka was the only liquor allowed by staff to be consumed on lunch breaks.
When asked why, he said he’d rather a customer think a drunk salesman was an idiot than smell alcohol on their breath. Because vodka wouldn’t be able to be detected by smell on someone’s breath compared to other spirits.
