Ice cube melting fast

How can an icecube melt so quickly within seconds of being placed on the opening of this bottle?

Not to mention that it even takes on the shape of the opening of the bottle.

Granted that the weather is warm, but to melt at such a fast pace is incredible! Perhaps the wet bottle mouth is another reason.

I think it's due to the material of the bottle being a good conductor of heat.
