One authorised to sell alcohol (8)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

licensee

'one authorised to sell alcohol' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is the entire clue.

(Other definitions for licensee that I've seen before include "local host, perhaps" , "One with permit to sell alcoholic drinks" , "One allowed to sell alcohol" , "The one with the official permit" , "Person with official permit to sell, say, drink" .)

I've seen this clue in The Times.
