So this bottle is nothing special. It's not super old, but I thought it's neat because of where it's from. My girlfriend's Father found it on the beach in Miami, FL back in the 70's. I've traveled to quite a few countries, been all over the United States, I was even stationed in Cuba for a year but have never seen a bottle from Cuba. Anyone have any idea what this bottle was used for? My guess?... rum?

Certainly looks like some sort of liquor although I couldn't say exactly which. Rum seems like a pretty good guess considering where it's from. I've seen Cuban bottles posted on here a few times, I think it's quite common for them to wash up in Florida, and some have been posted by people stationed at Guantanimo. There was a guy on here who had some great straight-side Cokes from Cuba as well, I think he might actually live in Cuba although I'm not sure. The ones I've seen here have all been pre-revolution, I'd be interested to see more post-revolution bottles although the era of interesting vintage bottles doesn't overlap very much with the era after the Cuban revolution.
