700ml Glass Liquor Bottles
A 700ml glass bottle is the international spirits standard. This page covers the 700ml format we supply: the table below lists the 5 variants we currently stock or have recently run, in amber, blue, cobalt, green and matte-black glass, with matte, frosted, high-gloss or spray-coated finishes available on request.
What 700ml is used for
The 700ml is the international spirits standard across the EU and most of the world: whisky, vodka, gin and rum all default to 700ml for export. It is the size buyers expect on a global shelf, and the format most private-label spirits programs are built around. If you export internationally, 700ml is the safe default.
Closure, neck finish and caps
A 700ml bottle takes a 28 mm or 31.5 mm finish. Screw (stelvin) is common for value and mid lines; synthetic or T-cork is the premium choice for whisky and aged spirits.
Packing and freight
Around 12 bottles fit an export carton at this size. A 1200 x 1000 mm pallet holds roughly 50 cartons, about 600 bottles. Confirm the exact carton spec before booking, as divider type changes the count.
Choosing colour and finish
Amber and cobalt are the UV-protective defaults for spirits with a long shelf life, while clear glass suits premium and coloured products. Green carries a traditional feel for some lines. At 700ml a heavy base and a deep emboss read as premium.
Decoration and customisation
Spray coating, frosting and embossing are all practical. A deep emboss reads well and the panel supports a full front label plus back-of-pack legal information. At 700ml a heavy base, deep emboss and full label is the premium global spirits build.
Lead time, MOQ and sampling
MOQ is 500 pieces, driven by the furnace minimum run rather than the bottle size. Lead time depends on order quantity; decoration and custom colour add to this. MOQ is low because the global standard size runs efficiently in volume. Samples in the standard finishes ship from stock, while custom colour or embossing need a pre-production sample before the bulk run. For a non-standard colour we run a furnace campaign rather than a coating, so it needs a volume commitment and adds roughly two weeks to the first order - spray coating is the lower-volume alternative.

Frequently asked questions
What is the MOQ for a 700ml bottle?
MOQ for 700ml is 500 pieces. Lower volumes are negotiable for repeat orders or for a mixed container.
How much does a 700ml glass bottle cost?
Indicative FOB unit price is $0.18 to $0.20 at MOQ. Final price depends on volume, colour, decoration and glass weight.
Can I get a 700ml bottle in a custom colour?
Yes. Custom colour is a furnace campaign rather than a coating, so it needs a volume commitment and adds roughly two weeks to the first order. Spray coating is the lower-volume alternative.
What neck finish does a 700ml bottle take?
Bar-top cork for premium whisky, screw finish for gin and vodka. The closure choice at this size is a brand decision rather than a technical one.
How long does a 700ml order take?
Lead time depends on order quantity. Decoration and custom colour add to this.
Can I order a sample of the 700ml bottle?
Yes. Samples ship from stock in the standard finishes. Custom colour and custom embossing require a pre-production sample before the bulk run.
