A bottle featuring a tubular body portion (13) formed in one piece by a spiral wound tube manufacturing process. A shoulder portion (11, 15) is joined to a first end of the body and a base portion (14) is joined to a second, opposite, end of the body potion. The shoulder portion is comprised of an inner shoulder (15) and an outer shoulder (11) that provide mutual support for a neck (12) and to provide a structurally familiar beverage package shape such as a flask or bottle. The neck may comprise a frustum shaped end (26) that engages with a mating surface (23) of the inner shoulder (15).

A paper-made coffee dripper is formed by folding a single sheet of heat-resistant paper model for use in drip-brewing coffee; and includes a ground coffee bag connected to and suspended in a U-shaped stand formed by sequentially connected front, rear and bottom walls. The ground coffee bag includes at least one smaller bottom opening covered by a paper filter, and the bottom wall includes a centered larger opening located directly below the smaller opening. A first and a second seal strip are thermally bonded to openably close a top opening of the ground coffee bag to seal an amount of ground coffee therein. A user can dispose the coffee dripper on a cup and pour hot water into the ground coffee bag to make drip-brewed coffee, and the produced liquid coffee flows through the smaller and the larger opening down into the cup.
