Counterfeit Glen's vodka public health warning

Food Standards Scotland (FSS) is issuing a public health warning after counterfeit vodka was seized this week which confirmed the presence of the chemical isopropyl, which can be harmful if consumed.

The counterfeit vodka recovered was sold in 35cl bottles (commonly known as half bottles) and fraudulently labelled as Glen’s.

When opened, the counterfeit vodka may have a strange smell and taste differently to genuine vodka, and therefore should not be drunk.
