To show you how this site got my head working.
I'm looking at that bottle and thinking.... if I take all those short pieces of 2"d copper and cut them at an angle, off set them in a spiral pattern, run down tubes around the perimeter to each level and solder plates to allow a flume column up the middle wouldn't that make a funky reflux
tower ????

Very clever marketing gimmick.
......now, only if it came with an imbedded Katana.

Some bastard broke into our house years back and stole my Katana. I thought that I'd gotten over it but now I'm pissed off again.

I'm probably too old to play with it now anyway.

The closest I come to something that sharp is my cutthroat.
Someone broke in a few years back. Took the TV, DVD player and a Sanyo Beta recorder.
Broke in again 3 days later and returned the beta recorder.

I had some bull shit like that happen to me. I was living in the city and someone broke into my car and sole a bunch of cds. Next week they broke in again and return the ones they didn't want.
I finally solved the problem of brake ins by putting a bottle of whiskey laced with syrup of ipecac under the front seat. No more break ins.
Sorry way off topic.

Isn't the bottle 'sliding' the wrong way??? Probably I'm the only person in the world that would bother.

Well spotted. There is a practical reason why they did it that way. Think about it.

So I presume this is a new way of making the cuts

If you pour with the lettering on the bottle facing up or down, the last drop will come out
As to the correct offset after the cut...

This is James Williams of Bugei Trading Co, martial artist extrordinaire, demonstrating the Dragonfly Sword. These pics are from his Dragonfly Quicktime video on the Bugei website.
The sequence of the two cuts shown above demonstrate that even if you were able to leap backwards as he reaches for the sword, your head will remain behind for the second cut
Note the scabbard bouncing on the floor...that's where the sword was, and note both cuts are from the same direction one-handed.
The designers of the bottle got it right; very few consumers will figger out that they're payin for the marketing and not the contents.

The reason (I think) they have the cut that way is so there is no air bubble trapped at the cut.
