I think the origin really does matter to some people. For example, why have farmers markets made such a strong return in the U.S.? Savvy consumers want to support local business and buy products that they know were made ethically and without nasty chemicals, additives, GMOs, etc.

Scent affects taste, and scents are easily detected when ones nose is turned up. So much of alcohol preference is in social posturing, not flavor.

Tell that to the local, organic, GMO-free food people :-)
