Like a lot of things it all depends on the customs man. The limit is 1Lt, whether it is wine or spirits. I have taken in a 2Lt cask with no problems and have also been stopped with a 2 lt cask, had to leave my luggage with the porters, follow the customs man into a small room ,sit down and pay him $10 AUD, then I could leave. It was quite scary as I was on my own. Next trip I just took in 750ml bottle of Scotch, no problems, but they didn't like my suitcase and I had a white cross. Books that I had in the pocket of my suitcase showed up black on the xray so I was queried, told him what it was, he believed me but had a quick look in the suitcase and asked me about my duty free, showed him my i bottle and off I went.
