Hollywood A-lister Will Smith has been presented with two golden cases of a Welsh vodka brand's new flavour, in the latest chapter of its ever-growing success story.
DJ Charlie Sloth, who is one of the directors of Swansea-based Au Vodka, met up with the multi award-winning actor where he presented him with two custom briefcases.
Sloth told the star he was the first person in the world to be given juicy peach-flavoured mixer cans, in a moment the brand described as "a crazy moment in its global journey."
Smith responded: "Wow. That's beautiful. Good looking out."
Sloth told him: "You're literally the first person in the world to have them."
"Juicy peach, love that," Smith said, as he cracked open a can and tasted it for himself. He then embraced Sloth with a hug and told him: "Very good. Thank you."
