    several years ago they changed the bottles from 750 ml to 700ml

    and kept the same price

    there was no talk, no advertising etc

    even some of my staff at the pub then did not really notice...

    some companies made the bell in the bottom of the bottle bigger, other companies used thinker glass for as short while...

    at the least the Wild Turkey Bottle is 1 litre

    well it was once
    There actually was some publicity. The rationale was that the alcohol content was increased from 37 to 40%, and that by reducing the volume the amount of alcohol you are buying is the same, thus a fair deal

    Did they really? When was that? I've been out of the country so damn long I never even noticed. Actually, all my spirits bottles are either 1L or 1.125L, which shows how much flying I've been doing over the last 10 years

    Oh well, at least good ol' wine is still 750ml.....isn't it?
