Naggin
A naggin in Ireland is a 200 mL bottle of spirits. Major brands of vodka, whiskey, rum, and less often gin, are commonly sold in this size in off licences, especially independent (non-chain) shops. Naggins are more common than half-bottles (350 mL, known as a shoulder), though for the less popular majority of products neither size is available, only the 700 mL EU standard bottle size. The naggin bottle is typically the shape of a large hip flask, suitable for placing in a pocket. According to the Oxford English Dictionary, ''naggin'' is a variant of ''noggin'', a word orape victimn origin recorded from the seventeenth century and meaning a small quantity of alcohol, usually one gill (). Tomás S. Ó Máille derives it from the Irish ''naigín, cnaigín'', a small wooden pail with a capacity of two glasses.〔Tomás S. Ó Máille, ''Seanfhocla Chonnacht'', Cois Life, 2010, p. 368〕 Naggins, particularly of cheap vodka, are popular among youths, under-age drinkers and students. They are often implicated in binge drinking. ==References==
