Laila Gin and Strong Lion Café Rhum Whisky. Finally from
India we have Bob’s Apple Vodka. I cannot find anything
about this. I suspect there are many, many more Indian
sachets.
Our next sachet is the only one I have found from the
Philippines and it is from the well known San Miguel
company. 30ml of gin in this one.
Who said New Zealand wasn’t third world? Our next sachets
are from here. They started being made earlier this year but I
am not sure if they are still being made as the website has gone. Needless
to say they are/were very controversial as it makes it super easy to smuggle
booze into dry venues. Registered names were Cheeky and Sneaky but I cannot find any
evidence that Sneaky has ever been made. All are 25ml. The range comprises Vanilla
Vodka, Apple Sours and Bourbon & Cola. All are 25ml at 20%. The first picture shows the
original sachet of Vanilla Vodka that was later replaced by the one in the second photo.
Continuing east we cross the Pacific to Paraguay, where
Sachets del Paraguay make a range of at least three
sachets under the brands Drinkev and Stark. Sorry but
the only photos I can find are very small. The Stark is
50ml so I assume the Drinkev sachets are 25 or 30ml.
The final stop on our journey is the
US of A and back to the US packed
Portashots.
Finally, we saw above sachets from
WC Beverages & Dum Beverages,
how about this one from Germany.
This has been on MBL for some time but has not been shown
before in miNiZ.
All these and many more will be on Miniature Bottle library by the
time you read this. http://www.minibottlelibrary.com/mbl/alpha/themes/sachet.html
