The cap includes an upper cap portion and a skirt configured to be received on a rim of the neck. The skirt includes a skirt sidewall and a skirt flange extending radially between a sidewall of the upper cap and the skirt sidewall. The spout includes a central duct extending through an opening of the neck and defining a pouring passage in communication with an interior of the container. The spout includes an outer sidewall extending around the central duct. The spout includes a seal ring disposed on an upper end of the outer sidewall of the spout. A bottom surface of the skirt flange is inclined downward in a direction toward the neck of the container at an angle between about 1° and about 10°.
