Described are novel containers adapted to separate and dispense two or more fluids of different densities, and novel methods of selectively separating and dispensing two or more fluids of different densities. In one embodiment, the container of this invention comprises (a) a top container portion defining at least one aperture through which fluid may flow, (b) a bottom container portion, (c) a phase separator between the top container portion and the bottom container portion, the separator and the top container portion defining an upper fluid chamber, the separator and the bottom container portion defining a lower fluid chamber, the chambers being in fluid communication with one another, and (d) a conduit extending from the lower chamber to the exterior of the container in such a way that, when the container is positioned for dispensation of fluid through the aperture, the fluid of greater density is substantially trapped within the lower chamber to permit concurrent separation of the liquids and dispensation of either the fluid of lesser density from the upper fluid chamber or the fluid of greater density from the lower fluid chamber.
