An alert has been issued regarding counterfeit bottles of Glen's Vodka, which are found to contain isopropyl alcohol, a toxic industrial solvent. The Food Standards Agency warns that these fake products, resembling genuine Glen's Vodka, can lead to serious health risks, including alcohol poisoning or death. They urge consumers to identify authentic bottles by checking for a laser-etched lot code and to report suspicious products.
