Whisky in a can

From The Daily Mail:

A Panama-based company believes outdoor drinkers would prefer to crack open a tin rather than lug round a bottle of their favourite tipple.

Now bosses at Scottish Spirits – which retains an office in Glasgow – is testing out the novelty on its Caribbean and South American markets.

Chief executive Manish Panshal said: 'We are really thrilled with the idea – it’s going to be a part of every lifestyle and occasion.

The can is the perfect size to be shared between three people who can mix it with other things like cola.

It’s lightweight and portable and entirely recyclable, which is good news. It will be one of the hot picks for any outdoor activities.'

But last night the Scotch Whisky Association said it would try to ban the cans for breaching international labelling rules.
