A 700 millilitre bottle of Au\u2019s original vodka has an RRP of \u00a334.99, making the giant bottle, which holds around 357 times as much, around 4,287 times more expensive.<\/p>\n<p>One previous holder of the record for biggest vodka bottle was Polish brand Chopin, which created a 200l bottle of spirit.<\/p>\n<p>Au Vodka has become something of a global hit, achieving major gains in travel retail recently. The brand also shot to prominence when it reportedly paid influencer Jake Paul US$250,000 to get a tattoo of a bottle on his bicep.<\/p>\n<p>The Au Vodka bottle is still smaller than the world\u2019s biggest whisky bottle, which smashed the \u00a31 million barrier when it was auctioned.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AU.jpg\"><img data-srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AU.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AU-239x300.jpg 239w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AU-480x603.jpg 480w\" decoding=\"async\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AU.jpg\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72669 lazyload\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"\"    sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-72669\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AU.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"754\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AU.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AU-239x300.jpg 239w, https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/AU-480x603.jpg 480w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/noscript><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>British spirits brand Au Vodka has smashed the Guinness World Record for the world\u2019s biggest bottle of vodka \u2013 and it could be yours.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":72670,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[2597,535,1,477,7099,7097],"tags":[14599,14600,13486,69,39,14601,892,216,83,273],"class_list":["post-72666","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-best-selling-brands-in-duty-free","category-duty-free-retailers","category-latest-news","category-latest-promotions-in-duty-free","category-spirits","category-wines-spirits","tag-au-vodka","tag-au-vodka-duty-free","tag-avolta","tag-duty-free","tag-dutyfree","tag-guinness-world-record","tag-stansted-airport","tag-travel-retail","tag-vodka","tag-world-duty-free"],"acf":[],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72666","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=72666"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72666\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":72674,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/72666\/revisions\/72674"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/72670"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=72666"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=72666"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.dutyfreehunter.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=72666"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
