The container further has at least one interface vent () fluidly connecting the interface () between inner and outer layers to the atmosphere, wherein the at least one vent () runs parallel to the interface between inner and outer layers () () and opens to the atmosphere at a location () adjacent to, and oriented coaxially with the bag-in-container's mouth (). Processes for manufacturing a preform and a bag-in-container as defined above are defined too.
