Abstract

A blow-molded plastic container includes an upper portion having a finish, a body portion and a base. At least one groove is formed in a radial sidewall of the finish. The groove slopes gradually downward along the radial sidewall and away from an opening into the container. The container may also include a kick out feature engagable with a tamper-evidence band. A closure member is adapted to selectively mate with the finish on the container. At least one thread is formed on the closure member.
