PARTHENON ON THE ROCKS; SCOTTISH PATENT CASE


Can anyone help?

One half of the IPKat has received a bottle labelled "Original Parthenon Hellenic Specialty Drink". It's 38% proof and looks quite interesting, but it didn't show up on a Google search. Does anyone know what sort of a drink it is, or what it's made of?

Merpel asks: if it's called Parthenon, should it be served on the rocks? No, says the IPKat, that's for Stones Ginger Wine ...


Scotland the brave!

Only yesterday the IPKat complained that there didn't seem to be any fresh IP cases on the Scottish Cases website. On this occasion, at least, the Kat's lament has brought about an instant response. Today a new case has been posted: ITP SA v Technip Offshore UK Ltd (formerly known as Coflexip Stena Offshore Ltd), a short judgment of just six paragraphs in which the defenders' application for costs in a patent dispute was successful.

  1. If the liquid in the bottle is brown then it is probably Greek brandy and will be sweet like Metaxos. If it is clear pour some in a glass and add water. If it goes cloudy white it will be an ouzo with a liquorice taste and a liability to cause headaches.

All comments must be moderated by a member of the IPKat team before they appear on the blog. Comments will not be allowed if the contravene the IPKat policy that readers' comments should not be obscene or defamatory; they should not consist of ad hominem attacks on members of the blog team or other comment-posters and they should make a constructive contribution to the discussion of the post on which they purport to comment.

It is also the IPKat policy that comments should not be made completely anonymously, and users should use a consistent name or pseudonym (which should not itself be defamatory or obscene, or that of another real person), either in the "identity" field, or at the beginning of the comment. Current practice is to, however, allow a limited number of comments that contravene this policy, provided that the comment has a high degree of relevance and the comment chain does not become too difficult to follow.
