King's Lynn & West Norfolk Safety Alert – Illegal Vodka
6th December 2011
... Comments

Consumers are being warned about an illegal brand of vodka called Drop Vodka which has been discovered on sale in several UK towns and cities. Reports have also been received that the product has been on sale in Norwich.

  

Consumers are advised not to purchase or drink the vodka because it is not registered by any company in the UK and could be harmful.

 

Tests carried out by other local authorities have identified substances that could harm people’s health. Other tests have found that the product does not contain enough alcohol to legally be called vodka.

 

Pictures of the two types of Drop Vodka, one labelled ‘bottled in Italy’ and one labelled ‘bottled in France’ are pictured below.

  

If anyone sees any bottles of Drop Vodka on sale in shops or pubs in Norfolk they should contact Norfolk Trading Standards through Consumer Direct via their online form or by calling 08454 04 05 06.
