David Bull, head of trading standards, said: “A number of bottles have now been seized for testing and investigations are continuing to identify those responsible for making and selling this dangerous product."

It comes after a complaint was made about a fake brand of Glen's which tasted 'like nail-polish remover.'

Tests showed it contained high levels of a toxic substance which can make people unwell.
