Nairobi, Sept. 24 -- Kenya's Africa Spirits Limited (ASL) has won a trademark and passing-off case against the Scotch Whisky Association (SWA) over its 'Glen Rock' whisky brand.

SWA, which represents more than 90 whisky producers across the UK, Scotland and other parts of the world, had sought to stop ASL from manufacturing and selling its Glen Rock No. 1 whisky brand, arguing that its packaging and advertising were designed to confuse and make Kenyan consumers believe the product was Scottish-made.
