Glenlivet’s new cocktail capsules come in small pouches, and you can eat them like grapes. But all people can think about is laundry detergent.

Glenlivet, one of the venerable names in Scotch whisky, experimented with something new this month: a tiny whisky cocktail that comes in a clear, edible packet instead of a glass.
It even came with a hashtag for social media: #noglassrequired. But Twitter users seemed unimpressed, and a little freaked out.
In a video released last week, Glenlivet described the walnut-size pouches as “edible cocktail capsules made from seaweed, meaning no need for a glass, ice or a cocktail stirrer.” . . .
The Glenlivet whisky capsules aren’t trying (yet) to be the next big thing. They are available only until Sunday at Tayer + Elementary, as part of London Cocktail Week. . . .
Our seaweed capsules are a limited London Cocktail Week release & are not available elsewhere.”

don't kid yourself folks, if they think they can make a profit
they will produce and market it
funny they don't identify what the coctail ingrediants might be
what a way to ruin good whisky
