A portable drinking vessel assembly removably engages an open end of a bottle neck to enable drinking directly from a bottle while aerating the liquid. The assembly comprises a vessel defined by a side wall, a bottom portion forming a bottom opening, and a top portion forming a top opening. A tapered conduit defined by a wide end and a narrow end integrally joins with the vessel through the wide end, and detachably attaches to the bottle through the narrow end. The liquid is aerated while flowing from narrow end, to wide end, and finally into the vessel. A silicone sleeve having ribs encapsulates a longitudinal portion of the conduit. The ribs engage an inner surface of the bottle neck to create a self-tapping rotatable action in the bottle neck, and a seal against the inner surface of bottle neck. The vessel joins a stand to remain upright.

A container assembly includes a container having a neck defining an opening into the container and a spout disposed in the neck of the container. The spout includes an outer sidewall defining an interior of the spout. The spout includes a flange projecting radially outward from the outer sidewall. The spout includes a plurality of spout teeth extending from a bottom surface of the flange and disposed around a perimeter of the outer sidewall. The neck of the container includes a plurality of neck teeth disposed along an interior surface of the neck and coupled with the spout teeth.

A cap on a bottle is selectively opened to permit passage of liquid to and from the chamber and closed to prevent passage of liquid. The cap has a collar that threads onto the bottle's mouth and a shroud that moves relative to the collar by applying a longitudinal force to the shroud's shoulder. By applying the force, the shroud moves longitudinally toward the bottle. In some embodiments, a valve is thereby rotated to unblock a throat so that liquid may pass from the opening defined by the shoulder to the chamber in the receptacle. In other embodiments, a dome is thereby displaced longitudinally to unblock the throat so that liquid may pass through.

A cap includes an upper cap portion to enclose an opening of a bottle and hold a dosage of fluid, a lower cap portion to extend into the bottle and increase the dosage capacity of the cap, and a skirt configured to engage the exterior surface of the bottle to secure the cap to the bottle. The upper cap portion includes a top and a first sidewall having one or more sections that protrude radially away from other portions of first sidewall.

A dispensing closure (40) includes a body (54) for being located at the opening of a container (44) defining a central axis (30) and having a pour spout (72). The body (54) including a crushable seal (200) surrounding the pour spout (72), and the body (54) including a lateral projection (210) extending therefrom. The closure (40) includes a closing element (56) for being removably attached to the body (54) and having a lateral projection (220) extending therefrom. The closing element (56) and the body (54) have a closed condition in which the crushable seal (200) seals between the closing element (56) and the body (54) and the lateral projections (210, 220) are confronting to inhibit separation of the closing element (56) away from the body (54) along the central axis (30).

A closure for a bottle includes an upper portion, a lower portion attached to the upper portion and including a flange extending inwardly from an interior wall of the lower portion, and the flange resides entirely within the lower portion. The closure further includes one or more grip elements located on an outer surface of the lower portion, and an annular sleeve disposed in the lower portion and including a set of interior threads.
